Actually I totally agree. I know nothing about guitar, but for that example Mahalo is the page I would go to first. Its bright, looks maintained and more importantly has a lot of what appears to be good content.
Could someone who actually knows anything about music comment on this one? I would be curious to know if the content here is actually better.
I've been in the process of picking up my guitar and learning a little, and it seems pretty legit. There's detailed explanations and some good videos, but it does seem to suffer a little from a 'wall of text' in a few places, and could stand to benefit from some good diagrams or visual aids in parts (the 'Frets' and 'Strings' part could benefit from diagrams for example, possibly one showing both).
It's not the best resource I've seen for learning chords (Garageband's lessons take that title), but as far as websites trying to help you learn, it's better than most I've seen.
