FAQ

What is a "Quick Fix"?

A "Quick Fix" lesson is for people who prefer to learn by observation, using looping, slow-motion, and tablature - rather than by having an instructor guide them through each individual lick and chord.

The performance is chopped into individual licks or segments, and each segment is presented using the same format:

  1. Full-speed
  2. Half-speed

Each lick or segment is shown using this format along with on-screen tablature. There is also tablature for the entire performance.
