Today, playing the guitar is easier than ever. Guitar manufactures are making very affordable guitars for millions of people around the globe who can’t afford a classic Martin D-28, and the Internet is making is so easy for people to put together their own piecemeal guitar course.

With that said, you have to be careful not to listen to too much of the bad advice that’s out there. At GuitarControl.com, we strive to provide you with the best guitar lessons online.
