If you are a beginner who knows the chords already, you will really enjoy this DVD. However, if you have been playing awhile, and are an advanced beginner or an intermediate AND you grew up with no knowledge of country or blue grass (me!) you will also love this DVD.

This DVD was a waste of money for me. It's too advanced for beginners because it expects you to know basic chords. On the other hand it does virtually nothing to advance the intermediate player.
