You'll work through this fantastic syllabus

1

Funky Blues

5 lessons with videos and notes

In unit 1, our focus is the funky blues! This has a big John Mayer Trio vibe and is all about developing incredible right and left-hand coordination and understanding.

2

Modern Blues

5 lessons with videos and notes

In unit 2, we dial back the aggression and focus on a modern style blues, using the most modern fingerstyle techniques, with a cool new set of chords and arpeggios called the minor 7 flat 5's!

3

8 Bar Blues

5 lessons with videos and notes

For unit 3, we return to the classic blues shuffle sound, but this time working through an 8 bar blues! Ever heard of it? Well, it's far more common than you think, with Clapton, Freddie King and many more being great lovers of the style!

4

Soul Blues

5 lessons with videos and notes

We've saved the best for last... Soul blues! We bring back the 6/8 groove from Essentials 2, and combining it with a much wider range of chords and bring in the most advanced piece of theory we have covered yet, namely the idea of "secondary dominants"

Don't take our word for it.

Best site I've found for learning guitar and I've tried most of the big names. The difference here is the lessons are structured around what you need to do to improve and provide clear ways to practice.

Sam

I've been playing guitar for years, but have never properly understood how to take my playing to the next level. Then I stumbled upon Guitar Club, and I am so grateful to Dan and the YGA team for their brilliantly structured and inspirational guidance and lessons. This is exactly what I was looking for, and I am pleased to say that my playing has taken a big leap forward.

Chris

I could sit down and write positives about this guitar teaching site for ages! There are no negatives to write about. Every teacher on this course is genuinely passionate about what they do and this reflects on my learning.
