Looks real nice. But I am not sure about easier to navigate...for example.

I picked lessons then acoustic.

First thing I see is Acoustic lessons....time 1-2 hours this makes sense.

Recommended level is intermediate to advanced.

The first 2 lessons are 2 guitars I guess this is beginner??

The next lesson is 5 guitars I guess this is expert?

This is followed by 1 guitar I guess absolute beginner?

Then the last one on the page is again 5 guitars I guess this is expert?

The next thing is Tips and Tricks ...time 15- 30 minutes this makes sense.

Recommended level is intermediate to advanced.

All the tips and tricks listed on the first page are 2 guitars I guess this is beginner?

This to me doesn't seem better than the old style where you could sort lessons by many ways. I spent a lot of time looking for lessons suited to my level of playing then I bookmarked them. It looks nice though.
The old way has absolute beginner, beginner, easy, intermediate, advanced and expert. The number of guitars represents the skill levels seems to make sense.

I think it would be better if everything was grouped to skill level, atleast, since I can't seem to find a way to sort anything anymore, but maybe I just don't see it. I don't even see a way to sort my bookmarks :confused: Maybe I am wrong but there doesn't seem to be any order to the lessons other then being grouped by style such as "acoustic" Seems like all of the acoustic lessons where just thrown into this category but I don't see how they are organized :confused:

It's just like anything you get used to and then changes. I guess I will get used to it and figure out how its supposed to work. Keep the great lessons coming,

Edit: figures right after I posted this I found what I was looking for under advanced search. Seems this is the way to sort by whatever you want to sort by. Keep up the good work guys!
I stay in the dog house its easier that way...
