Will I get scammed if I pay for online guitar lessons?

Are you trying to teach yourself to play the guitar?
THEN YOU'RE SCAMMING YOURSELF AND WASTING TIME!
You're about to learn the mistake you're making and how to fix it.

If you're like me and thousands of other people who want to play better guitar, you've probably found some tab on the internet, (there's tons of it) and learned to play a few songs that way. You've found some midi files and some tutorials on Youtube. It's not a bad way to get started and learn a few songs. If you want to play "Greensleeves" or the chords to "Smoke on the Water," knock yourself out. You've made your way into the kiddie pool and you can stay there for years if you like.

Or do you want to swim in the ocean with the big fish?

Quit Kidding about Teaching Yourself Guitar 

Would someone pay you to teach them to play the guitar? Would you feel good about taking their money? If the answer to either of those questions is "no," then you're not qualified to teach yourself to play. Well, maybe with enough time. After all, some great guitar players taught themselves to play. BUT IT TOOK YEARS AND YEARS!

Sure, it can be done. But most of the people out there who think they will teach themselves to play the guitar are just scamming themselves. They buy books and CDs. They search the internet for hours to find a particular song on tab and then find it's way over their head or else it's just chords. They're like golfers who think if they just buy the new great club they'll be Tiger Woods. Well, guess what. THEY DON'T NEED A NEW CLUB! THEY NEED A COACH!
