    3 out of 5 stars Boooring!.......2004-03-25

    Well, the picture in the front of this DVD looks like it will be a fun course, but is just the opposite. William does not smile once during the whole thing, not mentioning any motivation, like "look, we are about to have fun". Another major drawback - the DVD quality is like these guys just transferred the VHS content to DVD. It is so bad, that it is sometimes impossible to see finger positions, not even mentioning tablature - it is just blurred.
    Other than that, DVD teaches all the basic techniques, giving some examples (do not expect any famous songs, just some creations by the authors). I would strongly consider spending $15 more and geting the DVD with real songs and more fun host :-)
