Do you also think this is just some empty promises?
I don't really get what the software is for, but afais, you only learn to remember where each note on the fretboard is. I don't really get how they can promise to become a 'genius' guitar player in less than 60 minutes, because (in my opinion) that's theoretically and above all theortically impossible.

That whole thing sounds like an infomercial. There's no skill in the world that could be taught in 60 minutes, the human brain just doesn't work that way. Better to spend $30 on some introductory lessons, or find someone who knows how to play and just ask them to show you a few things. Or better yet, just pick it up and try stuff out. Lots of great musicians were self-taught, and no matter how you learn if you can't find a way to have fun on your own you'll never stick with it. Make your aim to enjoy the process of learning rather than trying to get to some particular "level" as fast as you can.

The software isn't designed to teach you technique, rather it tries to help you memorize the fret board.
The guy doesn't maintain his website very well so you can imagine what the software is like... a note on the website:
http://www.fret2fret.com/bass
http://www.fret2fret.com/guitar

.html are webpages, other things may be software.

This man is lying to you... the only way to master the guitar is hours of muscle memmory training and scales.. Ask anyone who plays to debunk this software for you since that dumbass left the links open for public download www.fret2fret.com/bass.zip and www.fret2fret.com/guitar.zip .. you will cry at the time you wasted even considering this software.

That is such a crap piece of software...if you could call it that.

Well, I have to disagree with you. The software is truly amazing. Anything that can teach you the entire fretboard in less than an hour is incredible. What you do with that information is upto you. If you have half a brain you will realise this.

I tried it. I liked it. I can't say that I memorized it yet but I now know the notes for the entire fretboard. This took a day and a half. I did not know anything before this.

I know that with more time a week or two, I will have the fretboard memorized.

It is a unique memory technique that works.

I have to say it worked for me , Ok I didnt do it in an hour
but I printed it out and took it on holiday with me and learned it at my leasure between beers . and I think im nearly there .
also the technique is usefull for other uses when you need to learn a bunch of bits of info .

19 Name: Voseman 2005-07-17 00:24 ID:27FPfkSP

I went ahead and just paid for it. Figured hey, it's only like $30, and if this guy is smart enough to scam me, good for him. Only one problem. I went ahead and did the Paypal thing, then relized I have no idea where to download the files. I only did it about 40 minutes ago, so should I be expecting an email from the guy with instructions or something? Obviously the zip links don't work anymore......
