“I purchased Desi’s audio/video class on music theory and just in case you don’t want to read the review … it’s worth the money. I’m a bluegrass musician and I was afraid that the class would not be applicable to me because bluegrass rarely ventures above the 12th fret (as Norman Blake said: “there’s not much money above the 5th fret”) and this music is primarily a bunch of cowboy chords using as many open stings as possible . However, I’ve learned a ton of techniques (like harmonized scales) that I’ve heard people like Tony Rice and Dan Crary and Clarence White use. Once I analyzed their passages I have been able to understand what they are doing and why their licks work and how to put those passages into my own music. I’ve emailed Desi a few questions I’ve had as I’ve studied the material and he always replies in timely manner. Highly recommended! It doesn’t hurt to mention that I love John Fogerty and Jimmy Page and Eric Clapton and all those guitar heroes fro the 60’s and 70’s and I’ve learned to play some of their music. Throwing a Green River lick into an earl scruggs banjo tune raises some bluegrass eyebrows but what the heck! Again, this class absolutely worth the money”
