How to be a successful guitar instructor on the L4g Marketplace - The definitive guide

So, if you want to be an instructor on Live4guitar Marketplace – BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING ELSE – please carefully read the comprehensive guide below so that you understand exactly what you should and should not be doing. To put it bluntly, we keep receiving applications, lessons and videos from people that want to be instructors which do not meet our requirements. We have tried to be as clear as possible in our instructions but it seems that many are not reading the instructions properly. The requirements are specific and must be followed because we don’t want you to waste your time putting together a lesson that we can’t use. We don’t really want our time wasted either.

Riffstation - Creative Escape from Practice Drudgery

Riffstation, is a software guitar practice tool designed to eliminate much of the guess work of learning your favorite songs, riffs, and solos. Riffstation allows you to import the song you’re trying to learn, isolate the desired section, loop the section, adjust the tempo, and it even automatically gives you an accurate metronome click along with the section to improve timing. When learning a complicated solo, Riffstation can isolate the guitar in the mix and almost completely lift it out of the mix to concentrate completely on the guitar.

Lick of the week no. 26 - Dorian Outside Funk

Go outside the pentatonic box and create your own landscape. Just dont be gone too long!

Les Paul - The Man who Changed it All
Les Paul was a genius of the mad scientist variety; and while he was not the first man to tinker around with guitar and amp to make the heavenly fusion of steel and electricity that we so lavish today, his success in the field of innovation crowned him as the father of the Gibson Les Paul, effectively making him the granddaddy of rock and roll.
V-Picks - A Prescription for Your Picking
V-Picks are constructed with unique blends of acrylics that are heat tempered with a 1500 degree flame. Adding to the dynamic design aesthetics, most styles have edge beveling for ergonomic motion and note articulation. Vinni Smith and his team at V-Picks were kind enough to send me a tester kit of some of their handmade acrylic picks with the promise that I would “never drop my pick again”. I was about to learn more about my right hand in one hour than I had in 5 years of alternate picking practice.
