Comments About Our Lessons

I
recently concluded the Halford / Iron Maiden world
tour with the Rock-In-Rio festival in front of 250,000
people. Not bad for a kid and his Metal Method
Lesson. Thanks!
Metal Mike Chlasciak, guitarist with the
band: Halford
Doug
Marks and his Metal Method rock guitar lessons
got me started. Just as useful as his technique tips were
his monthly newsletters, which were really inspiring because
they talked about setting goals, positive thinking, and
how to get where you want to go.

Guitar Player interview, Oct. 2003.

E-mail Messages From Real Students:
I
started playing guitar 12 years ago at the age of 18.
Not knowing quite how to go about learning and unwilling
to pay for private lessons. I hunted through a guitar
magazine for likely-looking material and wound up ordering
Metal Method. I have become a fingerstyle blues player
and a professional guitar instructor. You might say
that I'm following in your footsteps.
As
far as I've drifted from the heavy rock that got me
started, I seriously doubt if I would have gotten anywhere
without your clear, concise, and logical approach to
teaching the guitar. It's a quality that I hope to emulate
in writing my own method. Thanks so much
Gene Kodad
Doug, I just had to write and tell you how impressed I
am with your lessons so far. I received the package on
Thursday and within a couple of hours I had learned and
understood more about playing guitar than I had in the
last 20 years of trying! If I had come across your teaching
program years ago I would have never given up playing.
Feel
free to post this anywhere you like.....Have them E-mail
me if they want.... Thank you Bryan
Hello,
I am writing you because I wanted to let you know how
great your teachings are and that I cant thank you enough
for making such wonderful videos. I bought one and only
one back in '93 and I didnt know jack about the guitar.
Now Im 22, and that one video taught and inspired me so
much that anyone who hears my playing tells me I'm the
best they know. I'm not a cocky person ...this is what
I hear when I go to Guitar Center or Sam Ash Music

I bought
your original licks lesson in paperback in about 1985.
By the way, I still astonish people by the theory lesson
(currently called Level 5) you wrote about back then.
I
never did thank you, so...thanks a bunch for helping me
improve without spending a fortune on lessons. To this
day, I still review your material about 4-5 times a year.
And it's been 15 years since I bought your original cassettes
and paperbacks. Thanks to you, I've successfully played
in 6 bands from punk to new wave to heavy metal. I'm doing
what I love most almost every Friday and Saturday night!
Thanks again, Doug. Russ Maines
Thanks for all the wisdom. Over the years I have purchased:
Levels 1-6, all four Songwriting Videos, Speed Kills and
Vocal Power. I think they are worth their weight in gold.
My playing is finally at the level I always dreamed it
would be. I have bought many videos over the years, but
yours are the only ones that were really worth the money.
Doug, thanks a million. Lamont Edgar
I want
to thank you for your professionalism and attention to
detail. In a world too busy to pay attention, you still
found the time to replace a defective tape free of charge
no questions asked. You and your staff are a breath of
fresh air in the mail order world. I have nearly all of
your tapes and have enjoyed every lesson. I have gotten
quite good on guitar.
Learning to play at the age of 38 was a breeze with your
help. This has been a life long ambition that would have
never materialized had I needed to go to a music school
for lessons. Your video series opened up the world of
music to my fingertips. Congratulations on a job well
done. Paul Terzani
HI!
I am on Level 3 of your course and just purchased the
rest of the tapes so as to complete my collection of the
world's most useful guitar course. In celebration of my
progress, I also went out and bought a brand new Strat!
In no time at all I will be kickin' butt and taking names.
Thank you for everything that you have done for me and
keep up the good work! My best to you and yours.
Stephen Michael Hawley
I am
interested in learning it all. I picked up the guitar
for the second time last fall. I previously stopped attempting
to play about five years ago after eight years of being
noncommittal. After seeing a handful of friends pass me
by in only a month or two, I assumed that musical talent
was determined by one's genes. To make a long story short,
in the 10 months since ordering the Metal Method course
I am 100 times the player I thought I could be.
Didnt
include name or E mail address
I'd
like thank you for your time in making these wonderful
tapes. I'm a self taught guitar player but wanted to know
more to enhance my skills. I've always played rhythm and
was astonished at the skill of some lead players. One
of my friends, in another band, recommended your tapes.
Now I've got them and I've already memorized tape One
plus it has helped my speed. In fact, I play the lead
guitar in a band called Abaddon. I recommend Metal Method
to all my friends. . William H McPherson
About
3-4 months ago, I purchased the Experienced Levels 5-6
Metal Method videos from you, and I wanted to share my
experiences. I have been playing guitar for about 18 years
now - I took lessons when I first started, and continued
for about 5-6 years, after which I quit lessons, and began
the venture of being a 'self-taught' guitarist. This worked
fine for a few years - I worked on training my ears by
transcribing everything I could, and basically learned
every song I could note for note, but there was something
missing, and after a few years, I felt like my playing
was in a MAJOR rut - I wasn't playing anything new, and
everything I DID play seemed to sound the same to me (i'm
sure we've all had that experience).
I figured out what was missing after I watched & practiced
with the levels 5 & 6 videos of yours - and I must
say, I *CANNOT* believe the improvements it has made in
my playing! In just a few short months, not only did I
grasp the idea behind the dreaded 'Music Theory' - (like
most people, I knew the modes, etc., etc., but I had NO
idea how to apply them - not anymore thanks to your videos!)
I have also improved my picking speed dramatically (this
is evident after reviewing the 1st of the practice tapes
I made - yes, I recorded every day when I practiced -
and while it may have taken up a MOUNTIAN of tapes, but
it was WELL worth it since I could go back 3 weeks, hear
where I was at then, and compare to now.
I just wanted to let you know you have helped yet another
guitar player surpass all his expectations, and let me
tell you, it was all thanks to your instruction. Your
videos are laid out in a very good, easy to understand,
and logical order - and even though I have been playing
for a very long time, I may just go back & purchase
the other sets of videos (lessons 1-4) as I feel there
may be much I have left out of my playing for years, the
levels 5-6 showed me that! heh.. You have no idea how
much you have helped me and I'm sure there are many others
that feel the same. Thanks to you and EVERYONE there at
Metal Method - please keep up the fantastic work!
