@fatberg really valid points you have made, my teacher plays alot during my lessons grateful that i turn up with a battered fender strat, he brings his equally relicked Gibson Les Paul and power amp, whilst the rest of his pupils are acoustic guitarists going through their ABCs, i have access to tons of stuff off-syllabus during these lessons and i am blitzing through it so i see this as a great investment, which I find very encouraging, and everything is relative around guitar playing we hit AC/DC Metallica Nirvana, Van Halen to Parliament and Funkadelic.
Unless i learn the correct way first, and this is just my opinion these lessons would be deemed meaningless. also he knows every Nile Rodgers and Bob Marley chord pattern as he is sn accomplished band leader and composer. the thumb-over "barre" chord thing by Hendrix will come in time, i have also studied Eric Gales playing style which I enjoy, posted previously
