Moving Up Levels Can Be A Challenge. Now, You Will Be Ready To Answer It.
What We Do - And How It Works
“Take the time to learn proper ergonomics from the start.”- CHET ATKINS
FOR EXPERIENCED PLAYERS: Currently, we cater to experienced players only, from novice to pro, across all styles.
NOT A GUITAR METHOD: This isn't a "guitar method." Nor do we teach scales, chords, songs, etc. There are plenty of resources for that elsewhere.
PLAY WHAT YOU ALREADY PLAY BETTER: Our ground-breaking courses teach you how to hit those nasty jazz chord changes, play bars without strain, play with maximum efficiency, blaze through scales, hit every fret you aim for, eliminate frustration, and never worry about embarrassing yourself in front of others again.
USE WITH YOUR CURRENT LESSONS: This training is used in conjunction with your current studies, is part of your practice.
TAKE THE WORK OUT OF PLAYING AND MAKE IT LOOK EASY: You'll learn "TECHNIQUE THEORY," all about "playing mechanics and ergonomics," much as athletes learn these things to perform with ease. You'll learn how your hands and fingers perform best based upon research from sports training, robotics, and classical guitar technique, and play faster, better than ever.
NO MEMORIZING REQUIRED: Our goal is to help you play what you play better and faster than ever - to "make it look easy" – not to make you memorize more stuff that you'd like to play better.
OVERCOME EVERY TOUGH SPOT: Learn to problem-solve, correct, and make even the most knuckle-busting sections playable and accurate.
IT'S NOT HARD. You won't struggle to "get it," because these profound, powerful principles of Technique Theory are clear and broken into manageable steps. You will need to be consistent in practice until these skills permeate your playing for life.
YOU'LL LEARN OTHER GREAT THINGS: You'll learn a ton more too, about practice, musicianship, and other things that help separate the good players from the not-so-good.
Our classically trained Course Creator has spent over 20 years
researching, testing, and perfecting these incredible courses.
This works like crazy. We guarantee it.

Our groundbreaking "Technique Theory" will help give you the kind of technique that sets you apart from the crowd.
"There's a big difference between playing and playing well. Just because you can play a million notes doesn't mean you're playing well." - Steve Vai

It's frustrating. And annoying. But the answer is not to memorize even more stuff.
The answer lies in your technique.
Because whatever level or style, we will give you the tools to profoundly improve HOW you play.
When that happens, your playing potential becomes limitless.
Learn About That ONE FLAW In Guitar Teaching
That Created a Huge Weakness In Your Playing!
Here's the thing: They didn't teach you how to play. They taught you what to play.

Change Your Guitar Playin' Life Forever
Research
Athletes don't just noodle around - they learn the fundamentals of playing mechanics and ergonomics for great playing technique. In robotics development, machines with human-like hands that perform surgery must move precisely and cleanly, every time. The same for classical players; this challenging style makes great technical demands on players with little room for error. We drew upon all 3 areas to formulate our courses. You get the payoff.
We Offer A System with 7 "Guitar Strap" Levels of Expertise
Based On 20 Years of Testing
Our Course Creator, whom we affectionately call "Dr. Shredenstein," and the inspiration for our Technique Monster instructor character, relied on his extensive classical guitar training and his love of all styles to test and teach this groundbreaking approach to private students. He then honed his courses to perfection, ready to roll out to the world.
We Offer the Only Guitar System That Includes Graphic Comic Novel Lessons
Why? Because it's a blast, with great guitar-centric characters in the classic horror tradition - and because research into best-practice teaching methods prove that we stay interested and learn faster when information is combined with a great story. (Graphic novel included with Green & Brown Strap Levels and Accelerated Program packages.)
The Technique Monster "Pillars of Guitar Playing" Model
Hey, here's a question for you. Which of these areas do you think is already well-covered by traditional guitar lessons: Songs, Music Theory, Foundational Technique, Practice Skills, Musicianship? If you guessed "Songs and Theory," we agree. But these other often-neglected areas are just as vital. And we cover them like no other learning programs.

Have Questions? We Have Answers!
Q: How do I know if this is for me?
Whatever level you're at or style you play, your ability to play clean, fast, and effortlessly comes down to your overall technique. If you are simply willing to learn, be consistent in practice, and are excited about reaching new playing levels, you are probably ready to go.
Q: How do I know if this isn't for me?
It's a good question. This is not for everyone. Some people really just want to bang out some chords and songs. And that is fine! Others are more ambitious, even if they just want to have more fun playing. But if you are likely to just skim over lessons and skip most practice days, this is probably not for you.
Q: What if I'm a beginner?
Most of our courses are geared for experienced players, who skip the White Strap Level. Beginners will soon be able to take our upcoming Beginners Course to get started.
Q: Does this work for older players?
Boy, can it! Especially if your fingers are getting stiffer and less cooperative, maximizing your playing mechanics and ergonomics can make the difference between giving up and getting better. So don't get frustrated and don't quit! You can play better than you ever did, and better than people half your age when you know how!
Q: How soon can I improve?
Apply what you learn and start to improve in the first week! And here's even better news: This approach to fundamental technique and practice skills means you will be able to use this material to continue to improve - for life!
