Hi Kirk,

Just received your great and powerful guitar lesson and waiting for your password.

Hi Kirk,

Congratulations on a brilliant teaching method for guitar.

In short, I've been messing around on guitar for years (I'm 54 now) trying to remember all those scales and modes and arpeggios, not to mention hundreds of chord inversions. I don't read music too well so its been a constant frustration trying to learn what scales and riffs work with what chords and all the time trying to remember where I am on the fretboard. So, I am delighted to say that your teaching method with the book and slide rule and DVD is exceptional and I've started to re-learn my guitar accordingly. Funnily enough, I've accidentally been applying your technique without knowing it for years on a lot of the chord inversions that I've been using for Dominant 7th's whilst playing the Blues. But your teaching method has now "joined the dots" and filled in the missing detail for me. So, thanks again Kirk.

Best Regards, John S

I have only had the package for a few days now and Im working my way through and around it .... I have been playing semi-professionally off and on for a few decades. Like the masses of my age group, I learned to play by ear and am pretty good at what I can do. Unfortunately, I have been living in the pentatonic scale with just a couple tricks to venture outside. I never came across a system of teaching that seemed accessable to me for playing over changes and seeing the fretboard as clearly as Planetalk. The "mode" thing just made my head hurt.

To say I am extemely impressed by your system and materials and the very professional way you present them is a major understatement! It's hard for me to put into words what having this information, in a format that I can easily comprehend, means to me!

And to see that you openly interact with all the Planetalkers is amazing as well!

Hi Kirk,

I would certainly like to join the forum. I have spent a good few hours working with the Plane Talk package and only wish this had been available back in the late 60's and early 70's when all the emphasis seemed to be based on technical ability, and I and probably many others like me were trying to make sense of harmony, melody and improvisation etc: Even now at the ripe old age of 56 this approach has solved a lot of mysteries and removed a lot of bewildering "technical clutter".

I could probably babble on for hours, but I guess I'll save that for the forum.

I just went through the first lesson of the bonus lessons pack and man, it’s awesome. This is the very first time I have ever seen the fretboard presented like you do. I can finally see how lead players tie everything together. Sure, there’s a bunch of technique and all that, but I can finally see how everything connects. Committing it to memory is another story, but I have a completely new outlook on where I’m going and how to get there.

I guess I just want to say, “Thanks, Kirk.” This old dog may learn a new trick after all.

"Yes! I see it! ...... It all fits!!! This is really incredible stuff. I have many books that so over-complicate this matter than it... I'm at a loss for words to describe the sense of outrage/frustration/anger I feel, which is vastly overridden by the feelings of relief and joy at discovering what you guys have know for years. I mean it is SO SIMPLE that it's truly stunning that this information isn't common knowledge. Everyone is learning this stuff backwards, the VERY HARD way".

ZAP:

This is such a familiar feeling that I could almost be reading my own posts from a couple of years back!

As I've said elsewhere, when this started to sink in for me I actually felt cheated! WHY had nobody ever told me this in 20 years of struggling to play the guitar? Why had I learned all those keys, scales, arpeggios and modes as though they were all individual, complicated things I had to remember all the time while I played? It all seemed, as you say, so VERY HARD when in fact it was just looking at everything backwards.

Hello Kirk,

I got to watch the DVD this weekend and am really thrilled. You did a nice job and though I was familiar with the CAGED concept, yours is so much easier I think I'll actually be able to get somewhere.

Thank you.

Hello, Kirk

Just wanted to let you know that the book & dvd did arrive....see, they can deliver mail!

I think your concept is brilliant, might be the most insightful approach ever found. Many thanks!!

After reviewing the PlaneTalk web site several times, I finally decided to take the plunge and purchase the PlaneTalk Package. To be honest with you, I thought the PlaneTalk description was too good to be true. What was this secret that would enable me to have command of the whole fretboard?

I received the PlaneTalk book, DVD and Slide Rule a little over a week ago. I’ve read the book and watched the DVD three times already. I’ve also read every post on the forum. Thanks for including the CAGED Method Lesson and the Chord Tone Blues CD.

The PlaneTalk method breaks the code for mastering the fretboard and puts everything into perspective. The book explains everything in a simple easy to grasp format and the Slide Rule makes the whole fretboard visually uncomplicated. The DVD reinforces the information with several examples and the soloing portion on the DVD puts everything into practice. The PlaneTake method is too good to be true and well worth the purchase.

Thanks Kirk,

Mike

Hello again Kirk,

I just wanted to inform you about a couple of things.

1:) I got the missing guitar ruler the other day, and everything is well under the sun

2:) I will recommend planetalk to everyone that will lend me their ears for a sec !!!! in forums email etc ... (but of course with commons sense and etiquette )

3:) YOU ARE A GENIOUS !

4:) Thank you so much for not keeping all this info for yourself !

I must have bought about 35 - 45 guitarbooks over the years, none of them can compete with planetalk!! as a matter of fact, only one book before your's have really helped me, and that's Bill Edwards C.A.G.E.D system book, which is brilliant, but get really busy after the initial revelation. Planetalk doesn't suffer from that illness :) you have the best of the best of the best.!

My only regret now is that I should have bought this book 15 years ago :)

best wishes from Sweden Kenneth H
