Here are some people, equipment and software we like
Friends
As you might now, we have quite a few friends in the Guitar Community. Some of them that we feel can take even more exposure, are:
- Olav Torvund (also mentioned below)
- Terje Rypdal, through MySpace, Wikipedia, or one of many Guitar Player articles.
- Mads Eriksen
Equipment
Wait a minute while we check Ronni’s lair …
In the mean time—and if you’re travelling—you cannot really go wrong with a laptop and Guitar Rig.
Software
- Thomas Dolby alerted us to eSession; a very nice web based music collaboration system. Try it out if your writing partners don’t live in your neighborhood!
Pre-qualifying?
As you will experience, the lessons offered through IGA is not for the faint at heart. You need quite a bit of knowhow about guitar playing to be able to fully enjoy them.
To help you get there, we have a couple of resources lined up that might get you qualified faster:
Beginner?
If you’ve only picked up your guitar today, Mental Floss’ “Anyone Can Play Guitar” might be a good place to start.
Intermediate?
One of the best sites for guitar advice on the net, is maintained by our good friend, Olav Torvund. If you haven’t already bookmarked his Guitar Site, DO IT NOW!
We’ve also found lots of golden nuggets at the GitarNorge-site. And by all means drop by their Forum while you’re there! (Disclaimer: The GitarNorge site is in norwegian only.)
