My Jamorama Review

Tags: , , , , , , , , ,

As awesome as guitar playing is, at times it gets difficult if you’re not realizing the results you want to. This is common for the beginner, but even more advanced players feel this way and it can be tough to get out of a rut. And believe me, I’ve been around the block and should know. I’ve been playing for 16 years, and while I’ve had a blast, sometimes I hit a wall. It can also be annoying when you’re trying to learn from less than stellar materials and courses. After coming across this package awhile back, I decided to write my own Jamorama review.

Professional guitar teacher BenEdwards, and the rest of the team at Jamorama, have really addressed these issues in the most recent version of Jamorama. The first release they put together was a smashing success, but they’re trying to improve upon it with the latest version. In my humble opinion, they’ve put together a knock out package when it comes to quality and completeness. There are a ton of features that will help new players or old pros jump their playing up to the next level.

So what’s inside? For starters you’ve got a heap of great guitar instruction in a glossy two book series, but my favorite part is the nearly 150 video examples and exercises they put in the course so the student can hear and see exactly what they should be doing. This is priceless… it’s great to read about guitar, but nothing beats an instructor showing you, up close from 2 different camera angles, how to play a chord or phrase. Something else they put together (which I haven’t seen before, and I’ve seen bajillions of guitar products) are two exclusive educational computer games designed to develop your skills in reading and training your ear to transcribe music. Very nice touch.

They also include GuitEarit and Jayde Musica (Pro Version)! as free bonuses designed to train your ear and make it possible for you to easily play songs off the radio. Both of these programs are excellent free bonuses, but more importantly they’re easy and fun to play.

They really seem to like the bonuses, and add to this package, they cram in two additional free bonus ebooks. “Advanced Learning Techniques for Guitar” and “How to tune your guitar”. Advanced Techniques dives into the idea of mental visualization, which is actually a really cool trick for speeding up the learning process. This mental technique is like practicing, but you’re not actually playing. I thought this was a little silly at first, but when I tried it I was actually a bit surprised at how much it accelerated my learning. The second bonus book, “How to tune your guitar” may seem basic, but it’s got some great information and a tip I’d never heard of before.

Other bonuses? Oh yeah, they throw in a metronome for you, which is an essential practice tool.

With all of the high quality books, games, videos, and bonuses they give you with this package, I was highly impressed with Jamorama and have no problem recommending it to My Guitar Guide readers. I’ve been playing a long long time, and if I can get some great value out of it than anyone can. My only regret is that I started playing guitar in the early 1990s, before the Internet took off, and I had to learn the hard way  Oh well… there’s never been a better time to learn guitar than today!

This package is by far the most complete and fresh approach to guitar playing that I have seen in a long time, and the subscribers of My Guitar Guide have rated it 5 stars as well. I definitely recommend this product because I’ve seen it do wonders for my own playing and I believe it will have you playing your favorite popular songs like a professional. They’ve got something for everyone, whether you just started or you’ve played for years (like me). And at the current cost… well, suffice it to say that you don’t need to waste your money on $200 guitar courses out there, Jamorama does an excellent job for under $50. I sincerely hope that this Jamorama review has helped clear up any questions you had, and that you can start using it to make your guitar playing better today.
