    Cool, a program that teaches you how to play the guitar like a douchebag.

    I'm pretty sure you can't be a hipster if you admit to being a hipster.

    Learn the basics first like chords and actually being able to read tabs is important.

    I watched basic guitar lessons on youtube and simultaneously tried to play easy songs (metallica and stuff) looked for more cool songs to play, got the tabs from ultimateguitar - watched more lessons specific to that song (yt channel guitarjamzdotcom is good). now I am in guitar school to learn scales and to play from scores instead of tabs

    the reason why I my comment is so negative because that program is nothing more than playing guitar hero on playstation.
