Project X - The C-A-G-E-D System
This tip comes from my old friend Andrew Koblick, of Guitar5Day. Andy has a great new lessons resource, which he mysteriously calls "Project X", and this video lesson is an extract from the course. It explains the C-A-G-E-D system, and shows you how to use this to master the fretboard. Somewhat radically, Andy shows that, while the general thinking is that you need to use five forms for playing scales and lead runs, this can actually be reduced down to just TWO! Obviously, this makes the art of gaining control of your guitar's entire fretboard so much easier.
Watch this great lesson right now at the link below:
Special Project X Lesson - The CAGED system
If you liked this 'teaser' lesson, you can find out more about Project X, and pick up a $30 discount on the price of the course at the link below:

The Art of Practice
Ok, it's something we all know we gotta do, but most of us will do almost anything to postpone the inevitable need to practice - sing a bunch of songs, play our favourite 'show-off' chops, even change strings!
It's really all about discipline, and having a plan and a method to your practice mentality.
Chris Elmore, owner of ElmoreMusic, and co-owner with myself of GuitarBackingTracks has it covered in this really helpful article, which sets you on the right path to organizing your practice time, while throwing in some cool arpeggio patterns to get you up and running!

Free lesson in Guitar Rock Methods
Whether or not you were tempted by Chris Elmore's Guitar Giveaway competition ( see previous post ), I'm sure most of my Blog readers will be pleased to hear that I've persuaded Chris to let go of a mouth-watering sample from his forthcoming Rock Methods guitar instruction course.
Regular readers will know Chris as the maestro behind Elmore Music, which has previously produced Guitar Tips, Guitar Songs, Guitar Backing Tracks, and Speed Guitar Learning - some of the best guitarist resources on the planet.
When I pointed out to Chris that not all of my readers would feel up to submitting a video of themselves playing guitar on YouTube, to be included in the contest, but that many of them are indeed aspiring rock musicians, he very kindly agreed to release an exclusive video lesson taken from the yet to be released Rock Methods Course.

Win a Dave Mustaine Guitar!
My very good friend Chris Elmore, who you will know from the great guitar 'mini-lessons' he provides for my blog and for my monthly newsletter, is holding a contest with a superb Dave Mustaine guitar as the main prize. You can actually check out the guitar at this link:
http://www.guitartrader.com/Dean-Dave-Mustaine-Bolt-on-Electric-Guitar
Ok, so to win this guitar, or one of the other contest prizes, Chris wants you to submit a YouTube video of yourself performing on guitar. He explains it fully in this short video clip:
How to win the Dave Mustaine Guitar
Take a look at the video clip ( about 2 mins ) - if you think you have what it takes to impress Chris, just follow the instructions on the page, and you're on your way to bringing home an awesome guitar. Please don't be shy about this - I know Chris is not necessarily looking for someone who can replicate an existing guitar riff. If you think there is anything special you can do, this is your chance to show off your talent, and maybe bag a big prize in the process.
The link to enter the contest again is: How to win the Dave Mustaine Guitar
Regular subscribers will know that Chris is absolutely the most genuine guy in the guitar learning world. As well as regularly providing great free guitar tips for my guitar newsletter readers, he sponsored some amazing prizes for my 5 million and 10 million visitor celebrations. This contest is to celebrate the release of his latest learning program - 'Rock Methods', and runners-up in the contest will receive copies of this course. I haven't had sight of this course yet ( it won't be launched for a while ) but I know that it will be up to the standard of excellence of all of the Elmore Music learning tools.
I would encourage you to take part in this contest, show the world what you can do, and hopefully, bring home that fabulous guitar!
Meanwhile, I will be adding some songs to my chords and lyrics website which will hopefully meet your requirements.
Enjoy your music,
PJ

My friend Andy Koblick, the mastermind behind the Guitar5Day learning program has been working on a pretty revolutionary new course - Project X - mainly aimed at those guitar players who have plateaued ( is that a word? - ah I'm sure you know what I mean! ), and want to take their playing to another level.

Chris Elmore, owner/creater of ElmoreMusic, and co-owner with myself of GuitarBackingTracks has supplied another very useful tip for all musicians struggling to get 'that' sound.
Chris has been playing guitar at the top level for more years than he would want to even think about! It was a logical progression from this to passing on his knowledge and expertise to learning guitar players thru the great courses at ElmoreMusic. His GuitarTips course covers effects and sounds in detail, but he has taken time out to share a few pearls of musical wisdom with my Blog readers. Check out the effects tip below:

14 Minute Video Guitar Chords lesson
I have been singing the praises of Dan Denleys guitar courses - AmazingGuitar, BluesGuitar, LeadGuitar and AcousticGuitar for some time now. The link to the Acoustic course has been displaying "Sold Out" for some weeks now, but it is being relaunched tomorrow, Fri 14th March at 11 a.m. Eastern time. To celebrate the relaunch, Dan has given me a POWERFUL, 14 minute free video lesson crammed with incredible info about guitar CHORDS to share with my Blog readers. In this video you'll discover:
-> How chords are related to scales...
-> Why some chords are maj, minor, dom, etc.
-> What guitarists mean when they say... "two
chord" or "five chord" etc.
-> Which chords come from the major scale
-> The difference between a triad and a 7th
chord...
...and a LOT more.
You can watch it here right now:
14 Minute Guitar Chords Lesson - From Dan Denley's AcousticGuitarSecrets course
This video shows extracts of Dan's Acoustic Guitar Secrets course,
which is fast becoming THE standard for learning acoustic guitar.
The course completely sold out when it was released back in December,
hence the unavailable message you will have seen if you clicked the
link recently.
Now, *finally* it's going to be available again, remember it's
tomorrow: Fri, Mar 14 at 11AM (eastern).
Oh - and you can also download this video and watch on your iPod.
Just look for the "iPod" link.
I own a copy of this course, and it has done more to improve my
guitar playing than anything I've tried in the past 20 years.
Seriously. I would strongly advise anyone who REALLY wants to be
a "Guitar Player" to grab a copy of the course, you won't regret
it. But get in early, I have a feeling that the "Sold Out" signs
will be back up fairly soon, also Dan is making noises about
splitting the course into 3 seperate courses, which will almost
certainly increase the cost.
Either ways, you can enjoy the free 14-minute video lesson at:

Play Guitar Backwards!
Once again, a tip from Chris Elmore, owner/creater of ElmoreMusic
This is a brilliant article/lesson, with tab, sound and video, where Chris shows you how to play some really fancy and nifty riffs on lead guitar. Just watching Chris's hand movements as he switches between standard and "backward" fretting with his left hand makes you want to stop what you're doing and try that out right away!!
I'm not a lead guitarist myself, but I find with the help of the lessons ( like this one ) generously made available to my Blog readers by Chris and others, I'm starting to surprise my friends at our jam sessions. The look of astonishment on their faces when I add in a nifty lead break on one of the other players' numbers is priceless!

Blues You can Use
This tip comes from Chris Elmore, owner/creater of ElmoreMusic
Chris has provided a great article-cum-lesson, which gives a short introduction to The Blues and it's influences on today's guitarists, and a lesson, with tabs and audio which will give you an insight into how standard blues playing patterns have found themselves into many of the modern music genres. If you're not already familiar with blues rhythms and patterns, it's a great introductory lesson, I think you'll really find it useful. If you are.... well, ditto!!
