Online Instruction sites

Anyone who thinks they already know all there is to know about playing their instrument is somewhat deluded. Anyone who knows that they can learn something new even from a beginner is a well balanced person.

With that contentious statement in mind - why not try exploring some of the online music instruction sites - you may be surprised what you pick up - a lick here - a style there - a different way of doing something you already do well. Who knows - its all learning - its all fun.

Here's a decent site for a start. http://www.fenderplayersclub.com/index.htm

Please add yours and before you know it, we'll have a great database of instructional sites which could be of benefit to those souls who are either beginning or improving (which should be all of us).

has great articles, allthough most are shred oriented. the forum is great, has a cool "strictly thread" where a backing track is posted then everybody posts a strictly neoclassical or strictly pentatonic ect solo

I recall reading an interview with Mark Knopfler, in which he said that he was still a beginner, because there was far more he didn't know than he knew.

I think any so-called expert in any field will realise that there is always more to learn than what they've learned so far.

And therefore, the more you know, the more you realise you don't know.
