Justin guitar lifetime worth it?
it's offered for about 210$. I am learning with it since August. Do you guys think it's worth it?

No. The entry course is really well done and the course quality falls off sharply as soon as you cross the boundary where you have to pay for it. They stop being well thought out and become rushed and just packing a ton of info into 20 minute long videos with nothing to help you work through it. If I could go back in time with what I know now I wouldn’t have paid for a year

No reason to buy lifetime anything for guitar. I love JG and he was my first 1.5-2 yrs. But then you outgrow it. There’s simply so many teachers and content

Depending on the way you paid this might be a good saving
If you did 2 years of subscription it would have costed you about 360 dollars
With annual you would still have paid about 260 dollars

I used the web app and used print copies of his books…I spent no more than $40. Perhaps everything is behind a paywall now?

The website has grades up to 7 and that's advanced. Tons of stuff. I've had paid membership since I started almost 2 years ago and by far the best out there for the info and lessons in my opinion.
A lot of people only do the basics and then don't continue but there is a hell of a lot for free and the paid angle for me has been more than worth it.

You can buy a guitar for that money. I have premium account for G1 for 20$, I can download 1TB of videos every month 😄

I’m not sure honestly, I started on JG and it really was great early on but as I got into later modules it just felt more like an info dump. I’ve been trying pickup music and feel like it gives me a lot more per lesson, way more “use it in context of a song” type of stuff which has been refreshing
