The Internet is full of guitar courses but very few are actually of high quality, such as the course by Steve Krenz, a known guitarist and performer, which has packaged a very well done and presented guitar course in this website and in this article we will see some of its benefits so you can decide if it is what you need to get to the next level.

The Teacher

Steve Krenz has an exceptional Biography having performed with many famous people like Grammy Winning artists like Israel Houghton and featured in some promotional campaigns for world brands like Prudential and the World Cyber Games, so you are not going to meet some beginner here. One of the main benefits of the Internet is that the global competition let you get instructors with knowledge well beyond of what you can get at your local town or city. In this case, you get a world class instructor in a box which let you learn all what you need to know about playing the guitar at your own pace without paying the instructor by the hour.

The Benefits

Although the course starts from beginners, this perfectly suits intermediate players who have never managed to reach their full potential. The teaching style of the course is excellent. Although almost everybody purchases the deluxe version (called the "Expanded Edition"), which now comes with 20 DVDs, you can also go for the video only version. It is about $50 more or so, which is a pretty good deal at about $5 a DVD. Get more than double the content without having to pay much more.

Other Benefits

The "members only" part of the website continually offers more songs and exercises and the forum is one offer that sets apart this course from all other. You not only get exceptional value for the multimedia course, but also because of the interaction with other enthusiastic guitar players that always will have something to say. The best indication that this course has great customer satisfaction is that the majority of the posts left in the forum are from people very satisfied with the course. Steve Krenz himself participates actively in the forum, giving additional value to the members.

Styles Covered

Some of the style covered are: blues, rock, country, finger picking, jazz, acoustic and funk, so there is something for everyone.

Minor Negatives

The book doesn't lay flat, although this is a minor problem. Some special style sections were well done but too short. Because this is a general guitar course that covers a very broad spectrum it is not reasonable to expect every thing under the sun to be covered in exhaustive detail and probably is not best suited for expert although these people will get refreshing lessons from this.

The Price

If you compare the price of this package with local tuition paid by the hour, the course is a total no-brainer, not only because you could learn at your own pace, but also because the value of learning from someone recognized in the field. You could easily see that the course is expensive, but it is very well worth the price because of the quality of the product, the interaction with other guitar players and the quality of the instructor and also it offers a very easy monthly payments plan so you could go for it right away. I recommend you to go for the Steve Krenz without hesitation.
