In our Stage 1 course we show you the ropes and help you form a solid foundation you can build on for years to come. Unlike many other beginner courses that have you learning music theory for weeks before you get to play real music, this course gets you playing recognizable riffs in the first week. If you want the best start in guitar, this is it.

Picking up where you left off in Stage 1, you'll add even more riffs, chords, and strumming patterns to your repertoire. By the end of this course you'll be playing basic lead guitar, the 12 Bar Blues, 7 fundamental strumming patterns, 6 famous guitar riffs and you'll be well on your way to becoming a rock solid performer with guitar in hand.

Whether you’re a complete beginner or already have a few chords under your belt, this Beginner Guitar Chords Series will help you to have a complete knowledge of the most important Major, Minor and 7th chords every guitarist should know.

In this course you'll build on the 12 Bar Blues you learned in the Beginner Stage 2 course and develop essential Blues rhythm and lead skills that will enable you to play gritty, soulful Blues guitar like Muddy Waters, B.B. King, Stevie Ray Vaughan and More.

Fingerstyle is an essential part of being a guitarist and in this course you’ll learn how to play like some of the true fingerstyle guitar greats. Join Mark as he shares the fingerstyle secrets of legendary guitarists like Chet Atkins, Mark Knopfler, and James Taylor.

In this simple yet powerful course, Mark shares his uniquely practical approach to guitar theory. By the end of the course you’ll have a practical understanding of chord theory, scale theory and rhythm theory. All of which will help you learn songs faster, write your own music, communicate with other musicians, and much more.

Do you have a need for speed? Watch as Mark demonstrates the skills and techniques you can use to play guitar solos with blistering speed and accuracy.

The ideal next step for those who have completed our ‘Beginner Guitar Method’ series of courses. In it you'll learn key lead guitar concepts like using scale shapes, creating and playing riffs and playing in a key. You'll be shocked when in week 2 you find yourself playing along to one of your favorite songs without even thinking about it. You'll think, "I hardly recognize this playing from what I was doing just a couple of weeks ago... who is this person playing my guitar?"

Think of this course as your own personal guitar trainer! Designed to be used daily in conjunction with your regular guitar playing – this course will work on your right and left hand to build incredible speed, dexterity, and strength.
