Berkleemusic has organized a special online guitar lesson from Steve Vai himself, billed as “The World’s Largest Online Guitar Lesson.” The online course takes place at the Berkleemusic website on March 3 at 1:30pm EST.

However, the lesson won’t actually be the largest in the world without help from us. Berkleemusic is campaigning to round up as many viewers as possible for the event, so they can set the Guinness World Record for largest online guitar lesson.

The lesson will likely be part of Vai’s current online course with Berkleemusic, “Steve Vai Guitar Techniques.” Yeah, safe to say they found the right guy to teach that course.

Let us know in the comments if you plan to attend the online lesson, so you can learn how to play like this:
