Been through both the first and second versions of FBW a total of four times now; by no means an expert on it– (I don’t think you’ll find one); and it’s been a year or two since my last time thru, so my memory of it isn’t recent- (but still pretty-good….. because the program itself IS that good)

My takeaway from FBW is that it is much more about learning… than actually playing. It teaches a lot about “background” knowledge- (hard to put into words– but kind-of “how to find things/ how to figure-things-out/ how to find what key you are in– by ear– and what goes with what”…. etc…. etc….. etc….. there’s a LOT in there!).

It’s not so much a course about playing something; it’s a course about learning how to play anything- (if that makes any sense).

It will definitely advance your guitar journey, and will make you a better player, but in a more indirect-manner—- by making you a “better-guitar-thinker”; by definitely making you “fretboard-smarter” …….. while you are playing……

Hope this doesn’t sound TOO confusing- (I’m gettin’ more confused as I write this!).

FBW is about learning…… not (directly) about playing.

ADDED EDIT—– Think of it as a big bag of tools! Each tool in itself does nothing. FBW teaches YOU how to use them…. (together).

Expensive?- maybe…….. worth it?- absolutely.
