It has brought a structure to my playing before I would pick a book off the shelf and start playing now if I am using the lead guitar course or acoustic guitar course I always start for 10-15 mins with the exercises from the LGC which I feel has helped enormously epecially with barre cords at the upper parts of the fret like D which I always had problems completly barring.

I’ve been working through the video slowly making sure to get each step down and I feel my guitar playing, finger strength and most importantly my knowledge of that I am doing has improved drastically. I really can’t wait to finish the course. I’d recommend to anyone. I can’t say whether or not Dan is a great guitar player but I can say that he is a great guitar teacher.

In 50 years of playing guitar, off and on, I had reached a "brick wall". This course has helped me get through it and stimulated further interest, particularly in the Blues. I have now also bought Dan’s Blues course.

I would love the option to take full advantage, but my job puts me on a boat and out of touch 8 months of the year.

Very well written with excellent examples and video

As a new player, this course has helped me improve @ a faster rate.

A,B,C,D,E,F and G were once a complicated part of the alphabet, jumbled into music, and rules for how they mix confusing. It’s been over a year since I took a chance on Dan’s Lead Guitar Secrects video course, and music has been demystified. The simple tableture is one help, but Dan’s explanations and video demonstrations of each concept has contined to teach me every time I’ve gone through a lesson again. The bonus is that unlike lessons I’ve taken where the teacher shows you once and sends you away to practice a song, I can go back over the lesson completely with the CD and finetune the points Dan taught. More than just learning a song, I have been learning concepts that I can apply in every form and in every key. Dan has just made something I love, even better. Cool

By learning the lead breaks note by note or lick by lick together with the rythem tracks I learned a lot. For example: evertime I hear a G chord and I can play the lick I learned or a variation of it.

This course is well presented in both the writen and visual material. It is not for the novice, like me who was silly enough to think he knew more about the guitar than his betters, but should be viewed as an advancing guitarists guide and tutor. I found that I had to go back and critically self evaluate what I thought I knew but didn’t. The course will be brilliant once I have mastered the fundamentals that I fooled myself into thinking I understood. Please keep up the excellent tutorial work, and thank you.

Riffs and scales to help with leads; these were most helpful and added to learning experience.

Before purchasing the Guitar secrets i was unable to master the keyboard and all the intigracies of the fretboard now i am a much better player wouldnt venture to call my a guitarist yet but thats purely my fault not spending the time that is needed to obtain that status. Dan Coingratulations on a course thats easy to understand and above all does not have gaps in it that makes the theme disappear as every other course i have ever purchased has. Over the years i must have spent alot of money trying to understand the fretboard and your course is the only one that every explained it in detail that i could understand. Thank you once again.

Lead Guitar Secrets is a fantastic course for anyone who has a desire to shred with the best of them!

Alissa,

My playing and consequent confidence level went up exponentially after taking this course. This is quite an involved course covering the mundaned basics (scales, speed & dexterity exercises’s, etc.) to the advanced lead techniques. The course is definitely well layed out and easy to follow. You won’t get bored! Like anything else you’ll only get out of it what you put into it.

Pertinent exercises, clear explanations, and sequential lessons. I look forward to sitting down with each DVD because I pick up something new nearly every time.

Les Sheridan,
Towanda, PA

This course piggy backs on what a lot of players either already know or are doing without realizing what they are doing. It makes you think about the "next step" as the song progresses which leads to better accuracy and better overall delivery of the lead. I’d recommend it to anyone who, like me, doesn’t read music.

Robert Ervin,
West Bloomfield, MI

My lead guitar playing used to consist of a basic pentatonic scale, in one position. Lead Guitar secrets opened up the fret board for me and now I can play leads in every position! Now they don’t all sound the same either! YOU ROCK, Dan Denley! Thanks

I’m glad I studied your guitar lessons in advance. It helps me a lot. Especially the pentatonic scales. It’s just…lack of time, but keep on practising. Rgds

Understanding Modes, Pentatonic Scales and all the great ideas that get e-mailed from time to time. I have been playing guit for many, many years, and I know, one can never learn enough, but Dan’s Lead Guitar Course is a must to buy for anyone who wants to be able to play good leads, riffs etc including the Blues. So…keep on sending the good stuff. I am always looking for new ideas on my Guit. I don’t do Shredding, Heavy Metal and all the noise that goes with it. (My opinion)

This course is worth its money is suitable for both beginners and advanced

I’ve been play guitar since 1966. I sat down with a book of basic chords. My interests were the Beatles, Rolling Stones, ect. I joined a band in high school and was introducted to the Bar chord, which opend up my guitar world. Lead Guitar Secrets has introduced me to music again and this time I’m approching music differently (I’m learning to play TAB and leraning to read music. I now understand modes and have noticed that I have been playing around in the major scale for years. Thanks Dan for your course. I still have a ways to go.

Jay Imhauser,
Kansas City, MO

I’ll be honest, I didn’t follow the course the whole way through, but the sections I have done have really iproved my learning. Each time I continue the course I pick up something new and find great improvements to my playng, it’s just a shame that I’m mega lazy! I really recommend the course, as it can help even if you’re as lazy as m!

From just strumming along I now can do a solo or two without get red i my face

This course helped me over the hurdle of not believing that I could do anything other than deal with rhythm "stuff". No way I could be the "riff" man.. I don’t understand the fretboard enough etc etc.. Well, Dan sure put that idea to bed. All the stuff I’ve bought from Dan is about instilling confidence, great teaching and giving the student belief in his or her own potential. If you want to turn scales into music, if you want to bend and slide, if you want to look at yourself in the mirror and see an emerging Clapton (or any other favourite) looking back…then take this course. You might never rock Wembley Arena in real life..but in your head, you will!! Thanks Dan

Peter Sheridan,

I went from sort of knowing the pentatonic scale to having it memorized in my head and both hands. Dan’s courses are as good as having an in-person instructor to guide you on your way. And the cost is so reasonable. I recommend Dan’s courses to anyone who wants to learn to play guitar and/or improve their guitar playing.

Lead Guitar Secrets hammers home concepts and techniques the guitarist can immediaely sue to playl very well. The key to this is practice. Practice and more practice. Soon, you’ll take the concepts, blend them together and create your unique sound. Great building blocks for the rock star in you.

Bishop Rock,

It has taught me a lot more then I thought it would. And as much as I hoped. The format of the course is done really well. It allows you to learn at your own pace, to crawl, walk and then run at the correct speed for each individual.

Jeffrey Stokes,
Clarksville, Tn

It’s a well thought out course. It ties scale patterns together well along with all the play along examples.

Bernard Marino,
Mandeville, LA

I now understand why there are five forms for each pentatonic scale but how to move from one form to another horizontally is still very confusing. e.g. where to start in the next form.

Graeme Roberts,
Australia

Lead Guitar Secrets is simply solid content. I wanted to take my playing to level where I could sit in with other players. I needed to be able play with better players so that I could improve myself. Dan’s course did that for me through a step by step process. Tabs and videos are almost as good as a live teacher and are available to me anytime. I started with Dan’s acoustic course and as expected he delivered once again.

Jay Perreault,
Austin, Texas

The harmonization exercises were an eye opener as I could actually relate chords to the different notes in the scale and to figure our where the major and minor chords fell. Furthermore, I am now able to analyze songs theoretically. And the licks, I can hear myself playing notes I did not know existed. In the intererst of giving others the chance to participate I will leave it at that. Did I mention Rolling Thunder and Midnight at the Speakeasy? Dan, it was worth the money.
