Justin Sandercoe may very well be the best guitar instructor on the net and even better, his site is completely free (although he does accept donations). His site includes lessons in Blues, Jazz, Rock, and Metal. He also has courses to suit all levels of players from beginner to advanced.

Steve Vai  on Justin:

"I have checked out Justin's site and found it to be comprehensive and informative. I have always felt that learning about music and especially music theory applied to the guitar, is helpful in finding your own unique voice on the instrument and expanding your creative horizons. Along with his insight into teaching and his fantastic abilities on the instrument, Justin has created a powerful go-to-place for anyone interested in exploring the instrument to their potential. Just don't hurt yourself".

Brian May (Queen):

"On a day when there's a temptation to go into a dark place, and only see all the bad stuff there is in the world ... greed, cruelty, exploitation, selfishness ... I get days like that pretty often .... it's great to find someone giving out, and giving out good, and operating on an honour basis ... There are so many people who can't afford Guitar lessons .... well, here's a wonderful guy who has set up a whole system of teaching guitar ... Blues, Jazz, Rock, even Songwriting, from the basics, tuning the guitar, etc ... upwards ... If you use his site, it's up to you to determine how much you can contribute ... but this is an amazing site .... he is also very aware of issues in the world which need attention ... a great channel .. Check him out. He's a giver."

Tablature 


Picture


AZchords.com
This site is totally free and offers both tablature and chord charts for 1000's of songs. Very simple to search and find the tabs you need. There are quite a few pop-ups but not too bad and nothing malicious.. Remember the site is free so they need to generate $$$ somehow.

Tabcrawler.com

This site has probably more tabs than any other. However,you do need to be careful Yes, you can find songs here not available elsewhere, but the catch is that anyone can upload a tab to their library. Accuracy can be a concern. I generally use this site whn I am stuck on a song and have certain parts I can't figure out myself.

Songsterr.com

This is an excellent site that actually plays the tab for you using a realistic sound engine (well not all that realistic...lol). It also allows you to choose which guitar part you want to learn. A typical song could have anywhere from 2 to 6 guitar parts or more.
This site has a paid or free option. Paid option has increased features like the ability to print the tab, slow down the playback, full screen mode, and a tuner. The free version may be a bit cumbersome for absolute beginners but it is still a great resource.

UltimateGuitar.com
Another site with both free and paid versions. The free version has viewable and printable tabs. The paid version haa built in tab player. Fees a very reasonable if interested in upgrading. They also have lesson, backing track, and guitar forums.
