Infinite Guitar's Lesson Search is a powerful search tool that helps you find the lessons you want, fast. It allows you to view instant, real-time information on all the lessons in our database. Each time you view the Lesson Search, by default it will display our most recent lessons at the top. Sometimes this default list will be all you need if you're simply wanting to browse our most recent lessons. However, if you're looking for lessons related to specific topics, difficulty levels, styles, etc., this is where the power of the Lesson Search comes into play.

Just like a Search Engine

While the Lesson Search allows you to make highly detailed searches, it's important to keep in mind that you can also use it just like a basic search engine. For example, let's say you're looking for lessons related to alternate picking. Simply locate the "Keywords" box and type "alternate picking", then press enter or click the "Find Lessons" button. You will then see all the lessons in Infinite Guitar's database that reference alternate picking. Whether you're looking for lessons related to specific concepts, artists, or techniques, the keyword box will help you find them.

Six Category Boxes

The Lesson Search has six boxes with the following categories: Search Type, Media, Difficulty, Topic, Style, and Instructor. The Search Type box is where you can select the format type of your search, and the other five boxes represent categories that have various lesson attributes to choose from. Every lesson on Infinite Guitar is assigned a single attribute from each of these categories.

Real-Time Data

When you look inside the six category boxes, you'll notice that every attribute has a number next to it. This number represents how many lessons on Infinite Guitar have that particular attribute. When you begin selecting attributes within the categories, you'll notice that all the numbers in the Lesson Search start changing in real-time. No matter what you select or how many selections you make, the numbers will always reflect how many lessons exist within your overall selection. Being able to see these totals and how they change in real-time allows you to have instant insight into the contents of our lesson library.
