Have you checked out Berklee's prices? The Guitar Chords 101 course is $1,195 for credit and $995 for non credit.

Seems kinda high to me.

A grand to $1,200 for a basic chord course?!! Think of all the books on the subject you could buy for that, not to mention the brand new guitar that goes with it!

If people are foolish enough to pay that kind of money, I know for a fact that Straycat113 has a better deal for them. It is an historic bridge right near him which I'm sure he'll let go for the price of that course.

Hey, Gratz, it says FU online is under development.
I registered and I guess I'll get an announcement when it gets live.
Or you can just drive by Phoenix, knock on the door and pop a question. :wink:

It's an on-site week long seminar of sorts with all sorts of features and goodies. Gratz has been there twice since it's inception if my memory serves me. Others have been there as well. They rave about it. However, it's a $6K out of pocket plus transportation. You can certainly find details on the website FYI.

Doc.

@gratz
I'm really good, thanks and working on my Christmas present (self-service is always best service), a Midnight Wine RW Strat with GFS lipsticks. Got the pups, I'm waiting on the Strat to be delivered.
I know you'll have fun at NAMM, I plan to attend the Musikmesse in Frankfurt, so much closer for me.

@Miami Mike
Thanks a lot for the Berklee online info, the music business classes caught my eye; I'm working on figuring out a way to pay at least for the music marketing course.

@doc
Cheers, Doc! I'm one of the ravers and I stand by it. :D
