Lesson 28 of Jamorama Book 2 is a short one, focusing on diminished 7 chords.

Lesson 29 – the final lesson of the course! – looks at augmented chords.

And with that, you’ve finished the course – congratulations! By this point you have a huge chord vocabulary as well as a solid grasp of various rhythmic patterns and strumming techniques. You can read tab and basic notation, and understand how different types of chords are put together. You’ve also gained lots of practice at playing along with others (in the form of the jam tracks), and if you’ve been using the bonuses in conjunction with the main course, you’ll have developed your ear and other musical skills too. Together, this knowledge will enable you to play just about any song you like and/or to write your own tunes in various styles, and you now have a firm basis from which to learn more advanced lead guitar techniques (see Jamorama Lead, which is designed to build on what you’ve learned in this course), as well as to specialise in one or more musical styles, if that’s what you want to do.

Personally, I’ve enjoyed the Jamorama course a lot. Although this material wasn’t really new to me, it was a great refresher, and I think I’d have learned more quickly and effectively if I’d had access to a quality course like this when I was starting out.
