    All of the tutorials on this DVD are played on a MeadGuitars 3 string CBG tuned to open G.  However most all of the information presented can easily be uses on other instruments with other tuning.  Although Andi is from Germany, his English is quite good. This DVD is recommended for anyone wanting to learn to play cigar box guitar.  If all you want to do is pick up a few licks, turnarounds, and techniques, you can quickly and easily do that with this DVD.  But if you also want to go deep into advanced blues techniques and theory, that is covered as well.  Within days you will sound like you know what you are doing.
    Within weeks you actually will know what you are doing.
    The material is presented in concise 1 to 5 minute video clips, accessible in a easy to use DVD user interface.  At your desk, in your living room, or in your hotel room, you will have ready access to dozens of tutorials in the following chapters:
    Basic Techniques Advanced Techniques
    Tuning
    Blues Formulas
    Intro's, Endings, & Turn-Arounds
    Chords
    Melodies & Riffs

    Hand Percussion
    You will learn to play licks from blues guitar greats like Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Buddy Guy, Robert Johnson, and Eric Clapton.  There is even a version of Smoke on the Water by Deep Purple that you will actually be proud to play.
    Although the course includes many videos on advanced chords and progressions, given Andi's casual teaching style, you can become very proficient at playing without ever looking at them.  The Playing Slide chapter alone includes 8 different videos covering right and left hand techniques and will teach you slide songs from blues greats.
    This DVD plays on TV's around the world as well as desktop and laptop computers.
