I took my old book “ROBOTS TECHNICAL GUITAR” and brought it back again. The old price was $22.00 for a few years. I am re-releasing it for only 4.99
The old book had some great reviews from its users and some said they would pay well over the $22 it was priced at. I have the new book on songwriting out and I am going to be finishing up the new guitar technique book soon. This made me think that instead of keeping the old book as discontinued, I would bring it back at a super low deal.
Some people were upset that I discontinued it and really wanted to get their own copy. So, as a thank you for the support and kindness many have given me. I now offer the book again for basically nothing.
www.AllenVanWert.com to get yours. (It is down below my brand new songwriting book in red text)
Hope you have fun!

I just added a purchase page for my new book “Modern Songwriting Secrets”. I will be adding more details about the book soon but I put this up for the people who have been emailing me about getting the book asap.
Please let other musicians know about this book. Also please let me know how it works out in helping you with songwriting. Thank you for all the help and support!

My new book entitled “Modern Songwriting Secrets” Is complete and about to go on sale. It deals with becoming a better songwriter with real world examples and secrets about modern songwriting. This isn’t about classical music, 70s pop hits, or any pointless songwriting banter like most of the songwriting books out there. This is the real deal about modern music and how to craft hits. I slaved over it and made sure to include every singe tip and secret I could. There is a song analysis at the end of the book that is severely detailed and organized to help you out. The song is a current alternative metal song on national radio. It is from the band “Ra”. Sahaj Ticotin (Their lead singer) Gave me permission to use it for the book and I use it to prove how my examples and secrets are used in the current music on the radio.
If you want to get better at songwriting and have tried other books like me and just never gained anything of substance from them except for theory terms and coined phrases then this is the book for you!
I keep away from music theory as much as I can while providing a real world way to look at things and explain it all in a common sense and logical way. I provide the secrets and tools for you to get better immediately after reading it through. However, I feel that there are so many good tips and examples that most people will find themselves going back to it time and time again when they need a quick fix for a song they are working on. Or when they just need to sharpen their craft. It deals with all aspects of songwriting. There are no pointless examples and no old school mentality where you end up learning about how diana ross songs were written about love because love is a good topic. Nothing lame like that. It is the real deal!
So let me know if you are interested and I will hook you up!
Talk soon!

There comes a time in every musicians life when they realize what they think people should have is not what people want. This is especially true for teachers in the music field. I have been giving free lessons on practicing guitar and music theory for quite some time on youtube. I have been flooded with questions nonstop about one certain topic. I have avoided this for a while because the topic would be time consuming and I felt that being a growing musician meant doing things for yourself.

I have written another massive section to the text portion of the instructional. This portion doesn’t actually deal with guitar playing at all. It deals with learning in general. I will have it separated from the other text so the reader can find it easily when needed. I am planning on recording 20 more exercise videos today. I am liking the flow from exercise to exercise. I also think you will like the extra information included in every video. Instead of having one exercise played at different speeds from different camera angles.
