Ultimate Guitar Lesson

This is probably my favorite musical instruction site. Ricci Adam's MusicTheory.Net.
Especially, I HIGHLY recommend spending a lot of time at the Trainers> Interval
Ear Trainer, Scale Ear Trainer and Chord Ear Trainer. Presented almost like
a game, the Flash based application fires notes at you. As you make your guess
the program keeps score. Note that you have a lot of control over the skill
level. If you're new to ear training you might want to only concentrate on getting
good at determining the difference between minor and major thirds (in the interval
trainer) or triads (in the chord trainer). You simply have to click on the intervals/chords
you DON'T want to be part of the trainer to remove them from that session. Ricci
has made the entire application downloadable. There's a ton of excellent information
on this site. While not specific to learning the guitar, if you're intent is
to understand music, MusicTheory.Net
can take you a long ways towards that goal.
Another somewhat similar site is José Rodríguez Alvira's
Teoria.com. Again, a wealth of free information for anyone interested in
gaining an understanding of music. While I personally prefer the layout of MusicTheory.Net,
it's great to be able to explore similar material through a variety of lessons. Also, José
has a couple of features not found on Ricci's site. Especially I would recommend
the Rhythmic
Dictation trainers.
A
fun site for learning how to play guitar chords is chordbook.com.
Not only do you see the chord shape but hit the Strum' button and hear what
the chord sounds like.
The
Guitarist's Online Survival Kit offers a simple site with fretboard diagrams
of your basic scales, chords and arpegios.
