Much less a tutorial than a talk-y demonstration done at full speed

I love this site overall but don't know why they have to make the most complicated tutorials extra short. This one in particular feels like they were in a rush to slap it up on the website.


Yea, I remember browsing over that lesson, and kinda came to the same conclusion. That being said, the point about it being an older lesson is a valid one. Overall, I find that Douglas does an excellent job on song lessons. My guess is if this was done today it would look a bit different.
