Frequently asked questions

+ Can I cancel anytime?

Yes, you can cancel anytime in your account settings in 2 clicks. The goal of the trial is so you can test it out before committing to the full program. It's very easy to cancel

+ I have tried guitar before and struggled, will this work for me?

There's a good chance you've just been winging it with random videos and no real structure. Our courses are designed to target all the things you're currently getting stuck on, plus we'll be here to help you one-on-one the entire time. Your success is guaranteed.

+ Am I too old to learn guitar?

Not at all! Guitar is a great retirement hobby. We have hundreds of guitarists in their 60's,70's, and 80's in our courses - all making excellent progress.

Hand stretching and mobility exercises are part of the courses to get your fingers moving quicker. These are useful for all ages and I do them daily myself.

+ I have zero experience - will this work for me?

Yes! There's a quick complete beginner crash course included for brand new guitarists. You'll start there.

+ How is this program different from other guitar programs?

Simplicity and support. This isn't just a library of 1000's of videos thrown at you - it's a clear, guided path to transform your guitar playing. We show you exactly what to work on each day to see steady progress and real teachers are here to help you out every step of the way. We limit enrollment so every student is fully supported.

Are my hands too big/too small?

Nope, everyone struggles at the beginning. It's just a matter of finding the positioning that works for you. Don't worry, we'll show you how.

Don't take our word for it. Hear what our customers think:

-Jen M.

"Chords have been a real issue for me since day 1. What I've attained in 3 days, I didn't attain in 7 months of lessons. It was so easy."

-Don Mann

"I LOVE this challenge!!! I am really enjoying it and it is absolutely helping!!"

- Logan Hager

"I'm truly enjoying the challenge. I was searching for a system to give me consistent way to practice each day"

- Stan Dural

- Rick Kent

"I love this! I am getting speed, rhythm, and enjoyment out of the sound I am producing"

- John Heywood

"Excellent advice to improve my strumming, chord clarity, and to help me to force my chord changes. A nice methodical approach."

- Charles Giarratana

"I enjoyed it very much, very clear and easy to follow and I will continue to use these techniques I’ve learned."

- Phil McCaffery

"I really am enjoying the process and feel slight improvements each time. It’s a good course mate & I am getting a lot out of it. I’m enjoying playing again."

- Grant Regan

"I’m not getting any younger, the band I joined is doing only a handful of gigs this year so, with the other guitarist in the band have decided to get out and play some covers and some of my own songs. So to get in shape I signed up to half a dozen courses but yours is the only one that I’ve found of use"

- Cliff Wright

"Your process made a great impact on my ability to change the chords more quickly, but I also found that the quality of my finger placement had improved so chords sounded good much more consistently. Thanks for the outstanding help I look forward to beginning work on your complete system"

- Bob Radder

"I learnt more in the last 14 days than I have in the last 40 years. I picked up a guitar at the age of 16 and have owned at least 5 since and never managed to play well. I would get to the same stage in learning chords and in frustration give up. I feel know that I have moved forward enough to keep playing and want to improve more and more in time"

- Charlie

"The challenge has brought me to a point I never thought possible, I've only just started to play acoustic guitar and had never even try to play, I always wanted to learn acoustic guitar all my life but never got around to it, I feel I picked the best teacher for this. I'm very happy and will continue to have lessons from Kurt, he is a great talent and I feel very comfortable learning with him."

- John Hopkins

"I really enjoyed this course. It was well organized and produced. I’d recommend it to anyone looking to improve their technique or get over the hump trying to learn to play clear chords and progressions. Kurt is an effective teacher and communicator. He was very clear when describing what we should be doing in our practice sessions and what we should be striving for. The lesson plans were a key component to organized practice sessions."

- Oscar Krieger

"I really enjoyed this. The chords are simple - I've been playing them on and off (mostly off) for 40 years, so I'm not exactly a beginner. The benefit for me was the focus on finger placement to avoid muting strings and switching chords more quickly. I had not focused on technique since the early 90's so this has been refreshing."

- Kevin Kreider

"One word: AWESOME! I'm still not perfect on my chord progressions, but I'm definitely much further along that when I started. This challenge showed me that I don't need to spend hours at a time practicing something in order to master it. The small 5-minute lessons and 15-20 minute practice were manageable chunks to really focus on before proceeding. It just simply works!"

- Christie Nicklay

"Very good, excellent way of motivating me to practice every day in an efficient progressive manner, emphasize both accuracy then speed. I've made progress with a strategy and template to learn more. Thank you."

- Vanessa Leonard

"It’s great. It gave me the structure I needed, and kept the work manageable in bite-size 5-minute pieces. It made me a more confident guitar player/student. "

- James Scalzitti

"I think it was excellent and wish I would have taken it earlier in my journey"

- Janna Williams

"It was amazing. I just started learning 6 weeks ago and this had helped tremendously."

- Gary Pasek

"Great course. Really helped me with both playing the chords and changing chords more smoothly. Very happy with the progress I made though this challenge. "

- Mark Durinsky

"It was great. I made great improvements and I liked the daily workouts/tasks laid out. Very simple to follow and it gives you a nice structure for breaking down and learning new chords and chord progressions."

- Nick Vandersluys

"I thought it was excellent. It was easy to follow and Kurt didn’t make you feel like you should know what you’re learning already and speed though the lesson."

- Ken Bouchard

"Great course. More than just teaching me what I needed to know to progress it provided me with easy to remember lessons to practice on on my own."

- Matthew

"It was perfect."

- Louis Alejandro

"It was solid and fun to focus on a few cords, start slow and increase speed. I liked the presentation and the positivity in the presentation. Good supportive coaching, thanks!"

- Joseph Cunnane

"I have been a dabbler for many years. Your short courses are the key. I was a firefighting instructor for many years, short sessions resulted in better retention."

- James Ghi

"This was a great challenge!! It has greatly improved my chord changes, and a structure that was simple and effective, Glad I signed up for it thank you!!"

- Jason Gingras

"I thoroughly enjoyed this challenge. It delivered results from day one."

- Steve Spratling
