John's stuff was a great inspiration to me before i found the 'Nation, still amazing....! (-:
For the record, I'm one of Johns biggest fans....
but I think he did a great job at on his DVD. It gives you a great basic start on how to make music verses playing everybody elses. I know most people get into playing with the first thought being they want to learn their favorite tune and what not (and that's completely natural I beleave) but Johns DVD gives you a great basic understanding of how to make music with a CBG in a way that anybody can understand and follow along with. He keeps it simple which in turn lets you start having fun right away.
I can't read music nor do I understand chord theories so Johns DVD suited me great. John gets you to hear it verses seeing it
(not sure how else to put that).
I would tell folks to start with Johns then maybe (if you felt it was necessary) move on from there. If it's in the budget, get both John and Kenny's and you're pretty much covered.
Regardless of what method works for an individual, only practice/playing will make you better. If it's not fun...well you know.
Keep it simple cause simple is good!!
Hi Guys i am pretty new to all this, i am in the UK, i have no PayPal and no Ebay, so my question is this, is this available anywhere in the Uk, or if i send someone the Money could they even purchase for me.
Thanks
Not so easy for him as he has health issues, However I have sorted it out for him and he now has the DVD in his possession
Great! It just takes a little help from your friends. I've been working through Keni Lee's videos, which are great, and this thread made me decide to order John's DVD. It takes a while to get to the Bannana Republik Of Italy, but it'll be here one day...
Listen to John's performing vids. If you like them, buy the teaching vid. It's not my style, but I still learned a lot from it. And would buy it again. Crap, I may have to buy it again. I loaned it out.
As someone else said, not technical, but simple and useful and you just kind of play it a few times and absorb.
