The Byrds

With our series of guitar instruction videos, “So You Want To Be A Rock’N’Roll Star” and “Out of the Bedroom, Into The Garage And Onto the Stage” master guitarist and teacher Colin ‘illy’ Hill will take you from an absolute beginner to a professional guitarist within months. This is truly the fastest way to learn to play.

Play songs within 7 Days

Illy cuts through the crap and gets you playing songs within the first few lessons. By introducing power chords early in the series you can play most rock songs within a few days.

You won’t be bogged down with boring theory! This course is designed to get you playing and onto the stage as quickly as possible.

Play solos within 3 months

You will be playing your own solos and amazing your friends within 3 months. In this series Illy emphasizes developing your own style and shows you how to do this.

Learn the skills of the pro-players

Illy teaches you the tricks of the trade. In a simple, clear and extremely understandable style Illy will show you:

• how to bend notes, which notes to bend,
• hammer-ons,
• phrasing,
• finger tapping
• and how to make your guitar squeal like a bitch.

You will also learn about guitar volume settings and switching pickups.

Be playing in a band within 6 – 9 months

In the second video series “Out of the Bedroom, Into The Garage And Onto the Stage” Illy teaches you not only advanced guitar techniques but how to get a great sound from your amp, which effects to use, tips on putting a band together. And when you have the members of your band together learn how to setup a rehearsal room and how to practice as a band efficiently.

Onto The Stage

In part 3 of the series you will learn about:

• stage setup,
• foldback,
• front of house PA systems,
• mixing,
• how to mike up,

• and Illy will even show you his own stage setup.

All of this was filmed at a real venue. It is the perfect introduction to playing live for someone who has never gigged before. You will get the answers to all those little questions you have about playing live. I don’t know anywhere else you can learn this type of information all together in the same series of videos. This will save you so many headaches it is worth ten times the price of the video.

Testimonials

Dylan Taylor – Gold Coast Australia

“I would like to recommend the full guitar video series So You Want to Be a Rock’n’Roll Star and Out of your Room Into the Garage & onto the Stage. I learnt from very little knowledge of the guitar to playing in my first band within 8 months. Now we have played at several parties and our first paid gig is coming up real soon. The extra tips on getting a good sound, rehearsing and stage setup have been incredibly helpful.”

 

 

Bree Cooper – Stockholm Sweden

“All my life I wanted to play lead guitar but everyone told me that girls can’t play lead guitar and should stick to playing acoustic. After doing Illy’s course I am playing solos and developing my own style. I am truly amazed at how quickly I have been able to improve to this point. I have shown my friends that girls can play lead guitar and also I feel I now have the confidence to join a band.”

 

 

Rob Seymour – Sydney Australia

“My 13 year old son had been hassling me for months to get him guitar lessons but I didn’t want to fork out hundreds of dollars in private tuition if he didn’t stick with it. Then one day he found these videos on Axebay.com and for the price of one lesson from a guitar teacher I could buy him both series of videos. He hasn’t looked back. He’s playing really well and impressing everyone. Next he’s going to want a better guitar and a bigger amp!”

 

 

George Richards – Dubbo NSW Australia

“I can’t believe how quickly I picked up guitar after watching these videos. Within months I was playing solos and amazing all my mates. I thoroughly recommend these videos to anyone serious about learning to play guitar in a very short time.”

 

 

 

So what are you waiting for?
Okay, so if you are still with us now I know you want these videos. I know you need these videos. And now you are just wondering how much you have to pay for these videos. Well, let’s think about it. If you took private tuition at one lesson per week for 9 months at say, $40 per lesson that would cost you around $1440 and there is no guarantee you would be ready to play in a band. You may even be bogged down with theory and only able to play a few open chord songs.

We know the guitar teaching methods on these videos are the fastest way to learn to play. It has been proven over the years with hundreds of happy students.

The original prices for the videos were:

1. So You Want To Be A Rock’N’Roll Star                                                        $36.95

2. Out of the Bedroom, Into The Garage And Onto the Stage                            $46.95

This was a great price, especially compared to $1,440 for private tuition over 9 months you would have saved $1,356.10.

I have spoken to Illy about dropping the price, and let me tell you he is not happy. Illy says knowledge is money and he has poured his knowledge and decades of experience into these videos, offering you guitar tips and inside information that is very difficult to find.

However, for a short time special offer only, Illy has agreed to slash the price of the videos to:

1. So You Want To Be A Rock’N’Roll Star                                                        $19.95

2. Out of the Bedroom, Into The Garage And Onto the Stage                            $29.95

And as an added bonus if you buy both video series I have got Illy to agree to an unbelievable low price of $39.95. Yes that’s right $39.95 for both videos. This is less than the cost of one private tuition lesson. Like I said Illy is not happy about selling the videos for such a low price so this offer will not last forever.

If you purchase both videos for $39.95 here is what you get:

• Series 1 So You Want To Be A Rock’N’Roll Star
  • 7 complete guitar lessons
  • Supplemental e-booklet with chords, scales and exercises
• Series 2 Out of the Bedroom, Into The Garage And Onto the Stage
  • 8 complete guitar lessons
  • Part 2 – Into the Garage
  • Part 3 – Onto the Stage
  • Supplemental e-booklet with chords, scales and exercises
  • Recordings of Illy’s original compositions to jam with
• Download to your own computer
• Available for download for one month after purchase
• Full no questions asked unconditional money back guarantee

So what are you waiting for? With our unconditional money back guarantee you have nothing to lose. If you are not happy with the videos for any reason simply email us and we will refund your money, no questions asked. That’s how confident we are that the teaching methods on these videos are the fastest way to learn to play

So just to recap for a short time only; You can purchase the video series independently for:

1. So You Want To Be A Rock’N’Roll Star                                                       $19.95

2. Out of the Bedroom, Into The Garage And Onto the Stage                           $29.95

Or Both video series one and two for:                                                           $39.95

Just think how much money you will save on private tuition if you purchase both these video series; that would be a saving of $1400.05
