I’ve been following Anthony from StevieSnacks.com for a while on YouTube (gr8bluesgtr) and I wanted to share the great lessons that are available. Not only does Anthony teach guitar licks lessons but he also goes into detail about concepts behind licks too such as the example above. Also Anthony teaches beyond guitar lessons such as how to get a great tone and how amplifiers work for instance check out the video titled “Tube Amps 3: Preamp And Power Tubes” for a great in-depth lesson on how to use the preamp and power amp to get the tone you want.

StevieSnacks.com offer a range of Free and Premium guitar lessons which are divided up into various categories and difficulty levels, there is a nice flow chart which helps you find exactly the kind of lesson you are after here – http://www.steviesnacks.com/premium-lessons/ the price of lessons varies depending on the DVD Series you wish to purchase but it averages at around $21 per DVD (also available as a downloadable HD video). Of course there are loads of free lessons too and they are all great and varied, I’m surprised he gives away so much for free! If you are thinking of entering the Guitar Noize Blue Noize solo contest, these lessons would be a great way to improve your entry!

Anthony is a top class blues guitar player and teacher, as the site name suggests his style does have a large Stevie Ray Vaughan influence and some lessons focus on complete tracks such as “Texas Flood” and “Lenny” but even the SRV flavoured lessons can be adapted to your own style of playing. Make sure you check out Anthony’s gear demos too, it’s amazing seeing how a Fender Blues Junior sounds in the right hands!
