Good morning,
I'm constantly looking at YouTube to gather some info especially on new interests that catch my attention. Lessons with Troy has popped up pretty regularly. I see that he has a website with lessons on various tunings. I was wondering if anyone has any experience using that site? I was going to try a month and see how it goes but not sure what it includes.
Is there any other online classes that can be recommended?
Thanks in advance!

| Yep, lots of experience. Troy is the best. Leans heavier to dobro but plenty of lap steel lessons. |

| Thanks Bill! I think I'm going to check it out. I imagine it's an all access situation. |

| Troy is a good place to start. Once you settle in to what you want to do, you can find direction here. The all-in option is best if you are a good self student. You get anytime access to the lessons for your defined subscription period and tabs should you need. |

I'm a satisfied repeat customer, but have nothing to compare to. I've learned much from his lessons. I buy individual lessons because it suits my pace (and I bought a few before streaming started). A subscription would work great to explore different tunings. I recommend.

Thank you all for the direction! I'm going to check it out for a month and see where it gets me.
Have a great day! |

I am likely too late with this post, but I do want to go on record with my praise for Lessons with Troy. I switched to dobro and lap steel at the beginning of the pandemic, after many years on guitar. I continue to use Troy's site daily, sometimes buying individual lessons and other times purchasing a month or two of access to the entire site. Whether I am learning honky-tonk licks in c6 tuning, or old-timey music in in Dobro G tuning, or playing a bit of everything in open D, there is just a wealth of info on his site. The lessons are affordable, thorough, well-produced, and perfectly paced. I don't mean any disrespect to other teachers. I am sure there are great ones out there. And I don't mean to take up a lot of space here making an endorsement.
But getting high quality, affordable music lessons -- or high quality, affordable anything for that matter -- is a challenge these days, and I want acknowledge integrity when I see it!
Thank you |
