An etude a song written by a teacher for a student. Etudes are both an exercise and a song. Meant to improve the technique or demonstrate the skill of the player.

This course is designed for intermediate guitar players. Upper level beginners who want a challenge will fit in, too.

If you can play a couple solos (even simple ones) then this is designed for you.

Rock • Metal •  Fingerstyle • Lofi • Neo-Soul • Math Rock • Video Game Soundtrack. 

Intended for modern guitarists in 2025, with a few nods to classic rock techniques appearing as well. Heavy focus on modern styles.

Each etude comes with a youtube-style tutorial, outlining the techniques and skills you'll be working on for each piece.

Focus on mastering the concept by performing. Slow versions are included in the course.

PDFs & Guitar Pro 8 files. Backing tracks. Playalong videos (multiple speeds). Youtube-style tutorials with each etude, demonstrating the techniques needed.

I do. My producer, Thom Cappo also contributes. No AI music appears in this course.

Thom is an experienced producer, and I compose music for film, games, and TV, so you're getting backing tracks from industry professionals.

I publish 2 or 3 weekly etudes in my Online Academy. These 10 were the most consistently played by students, earning their spot as top favorites.
