The problem is that this is all that it has ... there's no accompanying notes, and the Tabs are pencil scratching scanned in.

I reckon this lesson would be better if it was clearer on trying to teach one thing: is it teaching the difference between major and minor, or how to do sweep? These are rather different topics, possibly targetting rather different audiences.... I already know about major and minor, so I was impatient with the careful measured pace of the lesson....

"At first I didn't "get" this site, partly because I arrived at the "licks" page, which kinda assumes you know what is goi..."

 

The BopLand.org site was confusing because the main page looks boring. However, once you get the hang of it then it's fun. They need to improve the main page to keep the bounce rate down.

It's not quite 5 stars, because I don't think that any of this stuff is "wow, that's a must have". But especially for beginners, you can buy all the material for about $10, and you can spend as little as $1 to try it, so there's not a lot to loose, and its very professionally done.
