Acoustic Blues Video
Things are pretty crazy around here right now. The phone is already ringing off the hook. And my staff and I are SWAMPED. Anyway, here a pic of the complete, Blues Guitar Secrets 2.0 course…
BGS2.0 with 9 DVDs, 1 CD, 185 pg. book
Here’s a new video from DVD 9 (Acoustic Blues Guitar):
We’ve been flooded with emails and calls lately because people are worried that the course is going to sell out again like it did when it was first released to the public. We had to close the web site and stock taking orders for six months!
The #1 concern is that some people can’t be in front of their computer early on Thursday morning. They’re worried that they won’t be one of the first to order and they won’t get the fast mover bonuses. We’ll everything is on a first-come, first-served basis. But I think if you’re able get the link early enough, you should be fine. 
Remember — the special discount link will be emailed to you early on Thursday morning! So keep an eye out for it!
Cheers!
Dan Denley
P.S. The letters, “P, I, M, A” represent your fingers on your picking hand. P = thumb, I = index, M = middle, and A = ring finger. That’s the way fingerstyle is notated.

Nice! Can’t wait for the Blues DVD!

Nice riff Dan, I am going to give that one a go!
Thanks,
Still trying to get to your big enchilada lessons i purchased recently
December 5th, 2008 at 4:28 pm
Dan, I like this one!
December 5th, 2008 at 4:31 pm
You make great videos.
I dont want to tell anyone about you though because I done want them to be better than me. lololololololololollolololololoolollolololololoollol

Cool! I’m really glad you like this song. It’s sounds easier than it really is. It takes a while to develop the independence you need on your thumb (picking hand).
Here’s a tip: Watch my picking hand.
Notice that I’m using my pinky to “anchor” to the rosette next to the sound hole.
That’s an IMPORTANT tip.
If you keep that pinky anchored down (vs. “floating in air”) then it’ll be a LOT easier to get your other fingers on the right strings at the right time.
Hope that helps!

Hi Dan. Being in the uk, the time references are a little confusing. is 11:00 am Eastern, 15;00 or 16:00 GMT or London time ?
Graham - I should have said, 11:00AM EST (Eastern Standard Time).
BTW: here’s a cool website that will help you see the different time zones all over the world…

Hi Dan
I am a beginner AGE 74.
I have good timing and know rythm when I hear it, but when I try to play country guitar/songs on my acustic guitar (I dont read music)I am having a problem learning HOW to find the right notes to play them for a tune (TO PICK THE SONG NOTES) string by string notes,(hope you understand what I am trying to say (been wanting to learn for many years)can you send me something to try? If need be after I try, I would be glad to purchase a lesons video.
Thank you if you have any sugestions and maybe a trial way to teach me.
I am willing to learn, but dont know how; my friends that play and sing cant/wont teach, your a good teacher,I can be your challange, are you game to try?
Bet there is many moe like me out there.
PS.Been watching you for a couple of years now, make it more simple and you will get a great audiance.
December 5th, 2008 at 5:33 pm
Great vidio, right now I am not into fingerpicking, have done some but not really applied a lot of time to getting it down. To many priorities in my playing now. Trying not to confuse myself to much. Of course you should know I am a beginner.
As far as time to write, anytine at all for me, I am retired and right now my computer is in my music room/bedroom. We are in the process of starting to build a new house so are sort of tight now staying with my daughter.
December 5th, 2008 at 5:41 pm
My brother says the pinky is the minion of the other fingers. By the way nice song! I will try it tonight
December 5th, 2008 at 5:47 pm
Thanks Dan,
I like this one.

I just hope we (in Europe) also get a chance to buy/secure a copy of this bgs course and not fish behind the nets when you start releasing at 11.00 eastern time.

Hi Dan!It always graet to receive your letters and videos including the TABS! Its fun, and enjoyable that your stuff is not harder than a person like me can always get something out of it, and of course it may lead to buying your stuff, but how expensive will they be?? Nine ore so DVD s that is argggh here during the war of Christmas. !! Think about it why not turn into Santa and through at couple of peaces in my lab? I d surely become happy, and you got my adr. from earlier occations.
Gods love and joy to you and your family, big smile for the little one

Dan I’m one of those senior citizens, 70 passing my time trying to play the guitar, really like theblues hope to see the video out soon, I like your style of training. Thanks Harry
December 5th, 2008 at 9:13 pm
Dan,
Looks GREAT, but I have to ask the question that everyone has in the back of their mind, how much will the course cost? Is there an introductory discount?, how long will it last? My wife asked me what I want for Christmas and your course is at the top of my list, but I need to know how much. No presure
December 5th, 2008 at 9:26 pm
nice going Dan on that tune
December 5th, 2008 at 9:36 pm
I am impressed with the ease that you teach. I haven’t had the necessary time to practice the course I recently purchased, but am very enthused every time I watch you instruct how to play these tunes.

As usual, just watching you play makes me want to learn more.
December 6th, 2008 at 2:13 pm
I would love to have on of your acoustic blues DVD’s. I’m in Scotland, but will just wait and see.
December 6th, 2008 at 11:19 pm
Hey Dan,I can’t wait to get your new course. I own all of your other courses plus I’m enrolled as one of your students in your year course. If this course is anything like your others? I’m pretty stoked. Whatever time you put it up for sale, I will be there.
Thanks Tom

Hey Dan,
Love the video of that country rag, but it looks a little complicated for me, I have the lead guitar secrets course and I even bought a new Fender Strat to learn on, which I’m lovin. I think 10:00 of 11:00 am EST would be fine to release your course, I’m at my computer during those hours of the morning. I’d love to order the course but was wondering if it was more of an acoustic based course?
Could I use the electric for these concepts as this is the only instrument I own?
December 7th, 2008 at 2:08 pm
hi Dan good man your self.I am a teacher for many years and I know a good teacher when I see one.I like thi “Old Country Rag” will give it a ttry as soon as possible;Let me know if you have any simple riffs or tabs I can share with my pupils
Regards

December 8th, 2008 at 2:15 pm
11:00 eastern seems like a good time. By the way, I have all your couses and I’m looking forward to this course as well (if not too expensive). I love your style of teaching.
This should be a wonderful Christmas for you and your family with your new addition this year.
December 8th, 2008 at 2:33 pm
Hi Dan I keep falling behind with lessons as I keep having to go into hospital for operations but i’ll get there eventually. Please be patient

December 8th, 2008 at 8:52 pm
Hi Dan, hope all is well with you & the family. This course looks great & hope I have the chance to get in on it before it runs out. I have everything you have done so far and love the work you do. Take care, Harry.
December 9th, 2008 at 9:30 pm
Hi Dan,
Hope you don’t sell out by the time I get home. 
I wouldn’t want to miss this course.
Well, I’ll be at work when you release it. Unfortunately, I have no internet at work. Construction. I guess I should be happy that I am working.
Please save me a copy.
Thanks.
