Just this morning I heard a story about a corporate executive who was struggling to find joy in life when his wife bought him a guitar for Christmas.

He said, “The simple act of playing the guitar was life-changing. If I had not experienced it for myself I wouldn’t have believed it.”

This BLACK FRIDAY find the Joy or Gift the Joy of playing the guitar with our one-of-a-kind method in our new Closet Rockstar Course.

One student said, “This is incredible! My favorite guitarists play this way but nobody teaches it!”

We agree!

That’s why we developed the method that you can learn in weeks instead of years.

So that you can play full chords on day one, full songs on week one, and sixty songs in sixty days with all the music theory you need to enjoy the guitar for life!

I say this all the time - my goal is to be your first (or first in a long time) and your last guitar teacher. By the end of the 12 weeks of our Closet Rockstar Course our students won't ever need another lesson again. Seriously.

So register for our Black Friday Event TODAY, and join us on November 28 at 11am EST to see what all the hype is about!

Jam soon,

The guitarist who played on Beatles records, formed Cream, wrote Layla, and became the only musician ever inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame three sep...

The guitar in the closet

There's a particular kind of person I love working with. They've done everything right. Built a career over 35 years that most people would envy. Retired with financial security, the freedom to travel, maybe a sports car in the driveway and a pilot's license to boot. By every conventional measure, they've won. And yet there's still one thing sitting in the closet... or the corner of the spare b...

What does B-ball have to do with playing the Guitar after 60?

It's March in 'Merica thus no one escapes the NCAA B-ball Tournament known as March Madness. A lot of times we label ourselves as "jocks" or "musicians" or "you-name-it". But the reality is that we are more than our labels and a good game can be enjoyed by a good guitarist and vice versa. Take last night's game for instance. #2 seed UConn against #1 seed Duke. Most of the country had Duke ...
