Logical Lead Guitar Review:

Have you ever
listened to an amazing guitar solo and nearly turned greenwith envy? If you have ever wished that you could play like the
guitar greats, then you have probably considered taking lessons
or buying some kind of guitar learning course. The problem with
many guitar courses available today is that a great musician
created them. Everyone knows that your typical awesome guitarist
may not be the most competent in explaining and communicating
how he does what he does so well. Adam St. James, the
creator of the Logical Lead Guitar program, has worked hard to
solve this
common problem.
Adam St. James is an accomplished guitarist. He has been playing
guitar for
30 years and teaching for 25 years. Those qualifications alone
should tell you a lot about the caliber of Adam’s program. He
currently plays and performs with a band, but also writes about
the guitar industry. His works as a music journalist has been
featured in publications like Frets, Guitar World, Guitar Edge
and Guitar Shop. He has interviewed a huge list of guitar greats
including B.B. King, Aerosmith, Eric Johnson, Buddy Guy, 3 Doors
Down, Slipknot and Soundgarden. Adam couldn’t help but be
influenced by the greatness of the musicians he has written
about. Last on the list of his impressive resume are the guitar
books he has written. Logical Lead Guitar is not Adam’s first
effort at teaching guitar techniques. He has also published 101
Guitar Tips, Stuff All The Pros Know And Use, 101 Recording
Tips, 101 Singing Tips, Incredible Scale Finder, and Picture
Chord Encyclopedia. These books are widely available in big
bookstores all over the United States.
Course Components:
Now that you know about the quality of the creator of Logical
Lead Guitar,let’s talk about the content of the course. It features 2 DVD’s
with a total of 4 hours of guitar instruction. There are 11
books that include guitar instruction as well as 500 examples in
music and tabs. Lastly, Logical Leader Guitar teaches you how to
master the 12 basic patterns you need to be a pro guitar player.
With all this information and instruction, you can’t go wrong by
studying with Logical Lead Guitar. Everyone knows that being a
guitar rock star is about more than just playing scales.
However, scales are an important skill for any great guitarist
and this course teaches you to bridge the gap between simply
playing scales and making awesome guitar music. These books will
teach you diatonic and pentatonic scales, and common arpeggio
forms. There are also lessons on different guitar techniques
like pull-offs, slides, hammers and bends that will bring your
solos to life. The music theory in Logical Lead Guitar actually
has a practical application to your guitar playing greatness.
Adam St. James and Logical Lead Guitar have also created a
website to give
you much more information about the course before you decide to
buy. You
can read detailed testimonials, more about Adam’s credentials,
and even
sample articles and interviews that Adam wrote. The website also
features a
special bonus. When you subscribe to the Logical Lead Guitar
newsletter you
win 2 free guitar books. Which Notes To Bend! and 15 More
Fret-Hand
Exercises are both e-books that you can download and get started
learning
from immediately.
Overall, Logical Lead Guitar is full of valuable information for
any musician to master. The cost is competitive with other
available programs. The only complaint I would have about the
program is the formatting. It’s not quite as user-friendly as
some of the courses I have seen. The 11 course books are all
smashed into a single 3-ring binder, making it difficult to
easily access the information. It is not too difficult to take a
few out of the binder, or buy another binder to make more space.
But I would prefer that it arrived at my doorstep in a format
that is easier to use. Also, the course is contained in books
and DVD’s. It is slightly inconvenient to switch from a book to
watch an example on TV. Some courses out there are formatted so
that you can do everything on your computer and you can spend
more time learning your guitar and less time referencing between
your course book and audio examples.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, Logical Lead Guitar is a course that contains
some excellent
information and examples. You will surely grow as a guitar
player by completing Adam St. James’ program. But if you are
going to spend the time
and money to complete a guitar-learning course, don’t you want
to use the
best? For an even more user-friendly and comprehensive way to
improve
your guitar playing I still recommend
Learn & Master Guitar. This program
is more technologically advanced and easier to use, with all the
great information and techniques that you need to take your
guitar skills to the next level.
