This course teaches to break down technique into very small elements that are easy to achieve, and when you put it all together, the effect is amazing, above expectations.

This should be called 51 drills, not 51 techniques. The technical information is rather limited. I also found the instructor's repetitive communication style to be rather inefficient. Of course review of material is helpful, but that is not what I'm referring to here. It seems like he forgets that he just said something 15 seconds ago, sometimes saying the same thing 3-6 per lesson. The intro is indicative of what I'm talking about, so if that doesn't bother you, maybe this is right for you.

Easy to understand and each step is demonstrated clearly. It’s helped me to hold the guitar correctly and eliminate the pain I was having in my wrist

As a student of 1.5 years, these 51 videos offered me about... 10~20 exercises I had glossed over and forced me to learn them in-depth. The final few are brand-new to me, and absolutely golden! Thanks Brian!

I very much enjoyed instructor Brian Riggs. He spoke very clearly and it was easy to follow his instructions. He was very precise and had a wealth of knowledge to pass on to students like myself. His various camera angles allows you to have a very good visual. It helped me learn and maintain with the visual also and the angles by which he handled his classes. He speaks clear and this being my first class with him caused me to sign up for more classes under his instruction. I have thoroughly enjoyed instructor Riggs and I would highly recommend him to anyone who has a desire to learn the guitar.
Thank You

Easy progression through the techniques, and Brian makes everything very clear as he goes along. He makes sure that he explains why the techniques should be done as he suggests...and he includes lots of things to watch for.
