Product Overview

Exclusive live concert footage is provided throughout the series to demonstrate the use of Larry's examples in a live band situation.
The accompanying instructional booklet comes complete with easy-to-follow diagrams that correspond exactly to the video series.
Reviews
A classic in guitar instruction.
I had this many years ago on VHS and so glad to now have it in digital format. Well done Groove 3. Would love to see Larry’s follow up instructional video course on here as well, which takes this one a bit further.
