Hello brother & sister guitarists!
Hope you're all doing well. We're getting closer and closer to the release of my new Lead Guitar Secrets course next month. The DVD's & CD's are being replicated and I'm currently proofing the book. (It's taking forever because there are tons of musical examples!)
Anyway, people are really starting to get excited. Email has been pouring in lately about the previous two videos from LGS: finger strength and modes.
Here's just a couple of comments that we've received:

Hi Dan,
I studied music for 2 years in college,with one year of classical guitar. It's fantastic to hear these theoretical concepts (like modes) really start to make sense. After watching your first video from Lead Guitar Secrets, I dusted off my guitar and I'm slowly building my fingers back up to strength. Thanks, mate!

Dan,
I've bought the AGS course, the Blues course and can't wait for the Lead course. I've learned more about guitar since I met you than in any other period of my life. You're the best and so is your instruction. May God bless you and your work.
Peace,
Mark

Wow. Thanks James, Brad and Mark. I sincerely appreciate your kind words and I wanted to say so publicly. It's comments like those that get me out of bed every morning. :-)
Anyway, here's three more videos from the new course. I hope you enjoy them. If so, please post your comments and questions below (click the "comments" link).
Or, if you'd like to leave a voicemail (like James above) please call toll-free: 1-800-609-9006, Ext. 6280. International callers dial 678-255-2174, Ext. 6280. If you've got a picture, please send it to Dan[at]AmazingGuitarSecret.com. Thanks!
Video #1: Horizontal fretboard movement
Horizontal movement basically means moving up and down the fretboard. You do this by understanding how scale patterns are related.
Video #2: Three-string box positions
Box positions are used extensively by blues & rock guitarists. They are simply the 3-string versions of the pentatonic minor patterns.
Video #3: Connecting scale patterns
The ability to connect scale patterns is the key to being able to achieve total freedom in your solo. In this video I demonstrate how to connect patterns 1 & 2 of pentatonic minor.

Does this one require much knowledge from your amazing guitar secrets course? It looks very interesting.

Hi Robert,
Actually LGS doesn't require any previous knowledge of scales/theory or anything from AGS or my Blues course. (Of course, it won't hurt!). But to answer your question, it's actually a "stand-alone" product.
Cheers!

Hi Dan,
Great vids once again!
My major problem is still working correct with my plectrum (you know up and down and up and down etc)
i usually play with fingers, pull offs and hammer-ons and bending
I'm still thinking of buying a course
keep up the great work
greetings Paul

How much will this new course cost ?
By Anonymous, at June 27, 2007
Dan, I have struggled for many years trying to learn how to play the guitar including lessons and jam sessions. Thanks to your courses and videos I have really progressed and I am looking forward to the new course being available in July. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience. William F. Hayes

Hi Dan
I'm an absolute beginner. Although I am familiar with what the fretboard is, etc, when it comes to things like first position, pentatonic, etc, I am lost. I watched the videos and have a very difficult time "seeing" what you are doing. (like with the box patterns) I also have a tough time with barr chords (my fingers don't cooperate). I would like to purchase a course that would help me to learn to play guitar but hesitate to do so. I am currently looking at video/sampling of three different courses but, again, because I am having such a hard time following the information, I hesitate to purchase. (I am a female so perhaps that has something to do with it... haha) If you have any suggestions, I would appreciate the direction.

Hi Dan,It,s very interesting that i have been doing some of the excersises already on my own but i,m learning how too tie them together most interesting,thanks for the direction to go Bearthigh..Ah-Ho...

Hello Dan,
You have a lot of good information here and your style of teaching is great. I have to say I'm not new at this and consider myself after 42 years of playing a professional guitarist. It's amazing how you can get locked in to playing and forget some things and you have made me go oh yeah. Keep up the good stuff someday I hope to meet you. Take care and God Bless

Hi Dan. I'm from the U.K. I am interested in your course (and appreciate the good faith you show by previewing such good course content at no cost!). Will the DVD's play over here? I guess they will on my laptop, my question is really...Have you had any feedback on this subject from the UK/Euro zone?
By Colin, at June 28, 2007
Dan,
Always great to hear from you and pick up some new tips. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the video's Dan. Thanks for pushing me to learn with all your e-mails. I haven't touched my guitar in a few months do to, to much work! I will start again in late September. I really appreciate all the free stuff you've givin me! I already learned more from you than books that i've bought in the past. Thanks everything! Ron

This is great stuff!
Keep up your awesome work, especially the free stuff, seeing as I cannot afford the courses.
Thanx again,

Hi folks, thanks for all the AWESOME feedback...
Quick answers:
Dear "wanting to play in NM"...
From what you said, I would suggest that you start with a good, general "how to play guitar course." I created one called "Amazing Guitar Secrets." You can check it out at AmazingGuitarSecrets.com. Another good one is by Steve Krenz. You can check it out at LearnAndMasterTheGuitar.com
-------------
The Price? Don't know yet. Will be announcing a little closer to the release date.

Dear Colin,
The 4 DVD's that come with the course are "replicated" using DVD standards. It's the same process as the big, Hollywood producers use to mass produce DVDs.
We used the same process for Amazing Guitar Secrets and Blues Guitar Secrets. We ship those DVDs around the globe (a LOT to the U.K.) on a daily basis. And to my knowledge they work fine. (Although we have a couple customer with VERY old DVD players that had some trouble.)
But as whole, the DVDs should play fine.
Cheers!
Dan

Dan,
I bought your two previous courses
and recommend them highly.
I use parts of them to teach group guitar lessons to kids at our town's community center.
I'm looking forward to this new course.

Hi Dan
Your stuff is great. You are a very good communicator.
Here's the "Big Question".
I loved the 3 video's that I just watched. The problem is I have to have the "Tabs" of all lessons in order to "get it"!
I can watch the video, but I have to have the tabs to really see what you are playing.
Will the new course have all lessons with tabs?
Please let me know.
Keep up the great work.
Take Care

Neil,
The new course comes with ALL the tabs for everything discussed in the videos.
Cheers!

Hi Dan,
I've been a music teacher for twenty years. I find the way you explain playing leads using the minor pentatonic to be very easy to understand. I teach in the same style as you and we both know that this style seems to get people playing at a faster rate than the old "Polly Wally Doodle All Day" style of the old style teachers of my youth. If a player has any feel at all he/she can really go to town using the minor pentatonic.
Good job!
Sincerely,
Dan Lytle's Music Studio

hi Dan,
sorry to say it's impossible to watch or listen to the videos, even though I've installed the Adobe plug in and have a broad band coomunication. All cames in short bits and pieces. Any one else who have these problems? Do you have any tips?

I'd be more drawn to an acoustically-oriented course...no interest in metal or hard rock.

Ok, I have been watching and listening. I have one question. In your second course you set me. You was talking about the minor pentatonic scale and you was talking about the first postion and then went to say the 3rd. Did you mean second? Well anyways the question I have is when you play the first pattern desending, and you tie the 2nd pattern, do you play the first pattern ascending, or the 2nd pattern ascending?
