still unsure? here's some common questions we get...

(Click any to expand)

+ I have tried guitar before and not been successful, will this work for me?

There's a good chance you've been using ineffective learning method - or just winging it with random videos. 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.

+ I've been playing for months already but have been progressing very slowly, will this work for me?

It's likely not any issue with your natural skill, it's definitely just an issue with the techniques you've been taught - or tried to guess at on your own. There are probably a few subtle changes to your current bad habits that can be very quickly fixed.

+ I can't change chords very well - my fingers don't stretch and I'm slow to switch - will this help?

Yes and yes. In fact there are lessons on these exact things in the courses. We know exactly what you're struggling with and we've guided thousands of guitarists through it. We'll do the same for you.

+ I want to just play and relax with guitar but can't because I'm not good - will this help?

Guitar becomes so much more fun once you pass the "beginner's trench" - the term I came up with for the difficult stage at the beginning where your chords are slow to switch, your strumming feels awkward, your fingers can't stretch to reach that C chord and the F chord feels totally impossible. Just stick with it and do our daily practice - you'll be confidently strumming in no time!

+ I've gotten stuck before...will the live coaching help?

You can ask questions at any time and get tips and advice that will improve your playing instantly. If you're struggling right now, there are likely a few small issues with your technique. They're easy to fix, but if you don't know what they are - you can't fix them.

+ 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 and then to do the 30 day challenge to get clear, fast chords and confident strumming

+ Do you have lessons for advanced players?

Right now our courses will take intermediates to an advanced level, but we don't have courses for "advanced" level players. But it's a subjective ranking. Just use the free trial to see if the courses are useful to you. If not, no worries.

+ I struggle to find time to practice. Will this help?

Definitely. When you practice the right things at the right time, you improve faster. We tell you EXACTLY what to practice so you don't waste time searching for information. This is perfect for busy people looking to make the most of their practice sessions.
