I don't know what sort of instructor he is or if the guitar is worth anything (heard it was a low end Lyon/Washburn) but you gotta love the hat. Sweeeet. :p

My grandson got one from his other grandparents. It is a $200 guitar and the lessons are very basic. The guitar needs the bridge lowered to make it easier to play. The strings set too high off the fretboard. Esteban's concert, which is on the tape, is pretty good. I do some fingerstyle, but I could never play the guitar with my hand in that position or keep my nails that long.

My dad got me that a few years ago when I first got serious with guitar. Its really great for a beginner who doesn't know any chords or few songs. The videos was pretty thorough and the booklets complemented it well. The guitar does have high action due to a high bridge and nut, but that really helps with callouses for a beginner. It has a really great bass response and a pretty loud voice. Not a scam by any means, deffinatly worth the money.

I have Esteban's Complete Course for Beginners. I did not get his guitar I bought a Taylor 110 instead. The course is worth the money. He makes it fun and shows you how to finger pick songs that are old but actually pretty cool. He also shows you how to play all of the songs with Plectrum (pick). He is a very talented player and has had the fortune to figure out how to make a living doing something all of us seem to enjoy. You can probably get some of the information here at this site. But I do not think you will get it as well condensed and all the songs he shows you in his particular style. So I really cannot say if you will like his course but it is not a Scam.
His course was the start to my playing guitar so I kinda like the guy. He would probably be sad to find out that now I am playing metal on my electric guitar! But then again maybe he would think that was cool !! :cool:
