What is a summer sprint?

May 22, 2026
Connect

Maybe it's just me, but every summer I want to tackle new songs, learn new licks, climb new mountains with just my guitar on my back and have a meditative moment with me and my girl (yes, my guitar is female). 

And I hear this a lot from beginner guitarists over 50 that, while the rest of the year can be a bit crazy, summer is a time they can devote 15 minutes a day consistently to playing their favorite songs. 

So I thought... why not do a Summer Sprint? 

90 days... coaching, community and coursework all calendared out to finally learn to make your girl sing. 

Is it going to be the most illuminating thing you've ever done?

Probably not, but is it going to get you playing your favorite songs fast and easy? 

Heck yes it is. 

So if you're interested smash this button HERE and get on my VIP list (closes tomorrow) and you will be invited to an exclusive event (36 hours before my public launch) next Thursday evening, May 28th. 

Why a separate event? 

Because I've only got 21 spots for the June cohort and we've got 5,000 beginner guitarists invited to the public event that next Saturday. 

I'm looking forward to it.

See you VIP-ers Thursday.

Jam soon,

-JB

McCartney said, "We used to travel miles for a new chord-literally-in Liverpool. We used t...
