• Answer:

  Easy to learn. Just use the web and you can find great stuff. Try: http://www.tubestreamer.com This site for me has been really useful and has many resources. I like it because of all of the videos, and video categories. Plus it has a search function. It has everything with tags for "guitar" which make it easier finding guitar related material unlike other video sites like youtube. On http://www.tubestreamer.com you can find everything from the most basic of beginner videos, to advanced stuff, guitar reviews, amp reviews and more. I found this site a while back and have been visiting it every day since then. I go there to learn to play songs, get equipment reviews, and also to vote. http://www.tubestreamer.com sponsers someone off of youtube each week and posts them as the "weekly streamer" This is kindof cool and gives people a change to make it off the youtube site and onto other pages as well. I noticed when I first started going to http://www.tubestreamer.com a few weeks ago, that there were changes being made to the page every day. I think the site is fairly new, but again has given me answers to most all of the questions I had that were guitar related. If you don't see something you are looking for, just use the search. Some Main things on http://www.tubestreamer.com 1. Acoustic covers and tutorials 2. Guitar Lessons 3. Tabs / Covers / Lessons / Workships 4. Guitar information such as Repair / Reviews Content seems to be updated daily, search tags show new things so I don't get stuck on searching myself, or trying to find something I would like to learn. I simply go to their page and get great suggestions. I have sent an email to the admin and got a fast personal response as well. (Which is a good thing) Something I really like to see.... Great page with great guitar content, of which most of the time has had exactly what I am looking for and more. I noticed there is also a new section that is a web forum area, and rumored a classifieds posting section for guitars and equpt coming soon. On the email reply I received from http://www.tubestreamer.com I was told that there would also be another place added soon for everyone to upload their own guitar videos and tutorials. Definatly a website worth bookmarking in my browser, and hopefully it will be as much help to you. It is web pages like this I think that really help out by keeping so much information in one place. Thank you TubeStreamer.com ! Sorry to sound like I am boasting this site, but I love it, and it has shown me a lot of new things and I have learned to play a lot of new songs this way. Seeing a video is much easier to learn guitar. (Even has some Piano stuff, and recording software stuff as well) The newest area added is the forum, and though it doesn't appear that many people have signed up on it yet, I am sure it will not take too long for this site to take off...Let's give some support to a great site showing dedication to bringing us great video information for free! Visit, sign up for the forums, and browse around! Thank you for reading! http://www.tubestreamer.com
