Another gem from Homespun

"Ernie Hawkins is a great teacher. He is passionate and knows how to communicate to his students. The material presented here is vital for the knowledge of the guitar, and Ernie pleads with the student to follow instructions, stay with it, and methodically learn what it presented.
As to Homespun, you get the great camera angles and excellence in production.
This is not a DVD to learn songs, but rather a system to learn the fretbord. If viewed as serious guitar lessons (which even the post beginner can work with) you will find these to be months of invaluable work. If you are looking to learn a song, you will be disappointed. This is work.
Homespun has lots of great DVDs to teach songs, of which I love and own, but these are the type of DVDs (along with some of Pete Huttlinger's) that are necessary for someone serious about learning the guitar.
Take your time. Go slowly. This is a tremendous bargain to get all 3. For the cost, you will be supplied with months of weekly lessons. Take notes. Measure your progress.
This is a 5 Star set, along with so much else from Homespun. Enjoy and learn."
