Path to success This looks like i may finally have a path to success. I purchased their biggest competitor, and even though they are very good, I needed more structure, Guitar Tricks offers that. I was hoping they would offer a Jazz component, but Blue is the main area of interest. I started from introduction 1 and because I do have some experience some of the videos were not needed and others were a review, It was worth it to give me a feel on how to best use the lessons. I have now started down the blues path and enjoying it. I would have like it if the instructor kept the distortion off his guitar so I can compare clean sounds but I'll get over it. I'm a 65 yr old student, so you can do it.. Go for it!

After many years, I finally decided to take this online… I finally decided to take this online guitar course after decades of not playing the guitar. The starting course by Anders Mouridsen is excellent. They may sound "elemental", but are not. Just the opposite. It is truly enjoyable and with patience, it will teach you the ABC's of guitar playing if you dedicate yourself to it. Hopefully by the end of the summer of 2024, I'll be inducted into the R&RHOF...!!

I just started using Guitar Tricks I just started using Guitar Tricks, and I have been trying to learn to play the guitar off and on for 40 years! I had books and I would practice for several months, get frustrated and quit for a year or more. This process has continued and I haven't gotten very far. I already see a huge advantage to having a person talk about the lesson and demonstrate the lesson for you. I didn't even know that I should use my fingertips! I'm excited to continue and see where this leads me. I think the instructor is good at talking you out of becoming frustrated, which has been my major problem.

Nine days in… I am just nine days in and am still in the fingers 'very sore' stage but I am enjoying the lessons immensely. I am a 73 year old complete beginner following both Lisa's and Anders' 'Guitar Fundamentals 1' concurrently and there is no doubt that I am making progress. I hate to look back but I wish I had done this years ago but, looking forward, I am confident that with Guitar Tricks I will learn to play guitar. Fantastic!

Easy To Follow I have wanted to play guitar for years. I have an acoustic and an electric guitar and I very occasionally pick them up but am completely clueless as to what to do with them. I came across Guitar Tricks and decided to give it a go. It's been great. Lessons are clear and manageable and although I only started a few days ago I already feel like I am progressing and improving. I've learned some basic chords and am now learning how to change through them. I'm strumming and there feels like there's purpose to what I am doing. Can't wait to practice some more. Only thing holding me back is the sore fingers.
