Customer Reviews:

Tequila Anyone ?!?!?!?.......2002-01-13

[....]The instructor does move a little fast for these intermediate songs, but after rewinding the harder sections a few times, I was able to master the songs. Would be better if this title was available on DVD so people like myself could jump right to the secions we wre having trouble with. Just a suggestion. Definite purchase for anyone looking to play Tequila !!!

Unbelievable!.......2001-06-06

I can't believe this things has gotten ANY good reviews.

Okay, it's a decently made video, alright presentation, easy to pick up on the licks, the on-screen tablature is great...

BUT I never got past Misirlou (the first song on the tape) because... it's not Misirlou. The video instructs you to play the song in the wrong SCALE. If you listen to a Dick Dale recording of this song and then watch the tape, you will laugh yourself off your stool.

It's wrong. You can find a tab transcription book with this song and see for yourself that it's wrong.

[opening lick actual notes: bottom string 0,1,4,5,7,8,11,8,7 and on the video: 0,3,4,5,7,10,11,8]

Waste of ten bucks.

SongExpress Surf Video.......2000-03-03

This video is great! I am playing all the songs on the tape and it took less than a weekend to pick up the basic licks of each song. The tablature is on screen with the fingering so it makes learning some great surf music really easy.

Great Video!.......2000-01-10

I've been trying to find ANYTHING that had some of the great surf tunes that locals here in San Diego were famous for playing...Dick Dale and the Beach Boys (Both great surf bands that have visited, and I've seen in concert) are some classic surf tunes. This video started out with one of the more difficult songs I've learned, Miserlou, but moving onto easier songs that I've heard and remembered. Pipeline I've picked up easily, and love it! This video was EASY to learn, and helped me along quickly. A MUST buy if you want to learn good picking techniques, and surf music!

had me playing cool surf tunes in no time........1999-05-28

I recently moved to Hollywood, Florida from the Cali. South Bay even though we don't have Pacific coast waves here this tape reminding me of riding the waves at Redondo. It was a blast learning Miserlou and Tequila. Pipeline is wiping me out, but Im sure I will get the best of it. Can't wait to check out other tapes hope theirs more like this.
