			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://thegearmall.com/guitar-gear-sites/truefirecom-an-online-university-for-the-guitar/attachment/truefire" rel="attachment wp-att-826"><img src="http://thegearmall.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/truefire-150x124.png" alt="" title="truefire" width="150" height="124" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-826" /></a>While great boutique or vintage gear might get you the sound you're looking for, you have to back it up with something interesting to say. And for that you have to go back to the roots and spend some serious time with the masters. Back to the woodshed as the saying goes. <span id="more-822"></span></p>
<p>While the internet is overflowing with guitar instructional tools, youtube videos, etc, it's easy to spend half or more of your time (and sometimes a good deal of cash) looking for that perfect solo, lick, lesson, phrase, etc. Or, you happen to come across a free video or lesson thats' got some good material but the tablature is incorrect or the audio quality sucks, and so on. </p>
<p>In comes <a href="http://truefire.com">TrueFire.com</a>, a revolutionary way to study the roots and evolution of jazz, rock, blues and country guitar in a new interactive medium. From Rockabilly to Bebop to Acoustic Blues to Hard Rock, TrueFire is an amazing resource for any guitar player looking to dig into a certain style of playing. The website itself features thousands of bite sized audio lessons (with tablature) with titles like:</p>
<p><a class="storelink" href="http://truefire.com/list.html?store=audio_lessons&#038;section=top_member_picks&#038;orderby=&#038;offset=&#038;item=1672">Hot Roddin' Boogie: A Rockabilly Roundup by Steve Trovato </a><a class="storelink" href="http://truefire.com/list.html?store=audio_lessons&#038;section=top_member_picks&#038;orderby=&#038;offset=&#038;item=1655">Eric Clapton: Eric's Essential Licks </a><a class="storelink" href="http://truefire.com/list.html?store=audio_lessons&#038;section=top_member_picks&#038;orderby=&#038;offset=&#038;item=1108">25 Blues Licks You Must Know, Part 1 by Andy Ellis </a><a class="storelink" href="http://truefire.com/list.html?store=audio_lessons&#038;section=search&#038;orderby=x3y5&#038;offset=0&#038;item=4879&#038;query=david+blacker">Stevie Ray Vaughan's - Stingin' Texas Shuffle by David Blacker </a></p>
<p>They also offer a number of great cd courses and video lessons for different styles of guitar such as:</p>
<p><a class="storelink" href="http://truefire.com/list.html?store=cd_courses&#038;section=top_member_picks&#038;orderby=&#038;offset=&#038;item=4967">Twang U</a><a class="storelink"  href="http://truefire.com/list.html?store=cd_courses&#038;section=top_member_picks&#038;orderby=&#038;offset=&#038;item=4781">Jazz U </a><a class="storelink" href="http://truefire.com/list.html?store=cd_courses&#038;section=blues&#038;orderby=x3y2&#038;offset=0&#038;item=6954">Fingerstyle Blues 10-CD Video Course </a></p>
<p>You also have to check out <a href="http://truefire.com/tftv/index.html">TrueFire TV </a>which is just an unbelievable resource for video lessons broken down by style that include tablature in power tab format. </p>
<p>The bottom line here is that TrueFire offers a great amount of value because they've created a way to study the guitar directly from amazing players who deliver a wide range of material, allowing you to focus on exactly the style or technique that you are looking for. </p>
