    They offer free DVD/CD's from time-to-time, plus good stuff on line too.

    Gibson also has some good on line lessons.

    I love the Trufire.com site. I have purchased a couple of their interactive Video courses there and they are excellent.

    If you're into Jazz and want to learn some new lines, or just shore up your improv skills I would highly reccomend the course by Mimi Fox called "Graduated Solos".

    The best time to buy lessons is during Easter's "Easter Egg Hunt" randomly selected lessons each hour for a weekend are half-price. All lessons come up several times.

    I got the following at last year's hunt:

    Fingerstyle Blues Handbook parts 1 & 2

    http://truefire.com/fsbhandbook/handbook.html

    http://truefire.com/handbook2/handbook2.html

    & I'm just finishing up handbook 2 (handbook 1 is finished). I'm currently working on the last lesson.

    These were perfect for my skill level. David Hamburger is great & the lessons are progressive so you really get somewhere.

    I've got this one in the wings:

    http://truefire.com/newschool/newschool.html

    :

    For you resonator fans check out this offering:

    Dirt Road Blues

    http://truefire.com/dirtroadblues/dirtroadblues.html

    I'm sure this one by David Hamburger would be great, but probably too hard for me right now.

    http://truefire.com/bluesarchitect/bluesarchitect.html

    ditto this one

    http://truefire.com/bluesalchemy/bluesalchemy.html



    Most of True Fire's lessons are for advanced players so pay attention to make sure you get something that you can handle.

    How about Shred-Ahead Blues Rock

    http://truefire.com/shredahead/shredahead.html

    Or for you with Hagstroms: Larry Carlton 335 Blues
