Discover The Secret Ingredient To Playing More Songs, Jamming With Friends And Having A Ton Fun Playing Guitar... And You Don't Have To Go Through Countless Videos, Tabs, Books, Boring Exercises And Hours And Hours Of Daily Practice To See Improvements In All Areas Of Your Guitar Playing...
Do you feel like your guitar playing is stuck, going nowhere, despite having access to guitar instruction books, tabs, DVDs and the internet?
Want to finally learn how to play songs on your guitar the way you've always wanted to?
If you find yourself logging hours and hours of limited practice time, and your guitar playing is still not improving as fast as you like... the problem does not lie with you. The problem lies in the guitar learning resources you are using - information in the marketplace is saturated and results deficient...
Let me help you get the right solutions to your guitar playing challenges...
Would You Like To:
- Have chord transitions that are smooth, effortless and easy?
- Learn the #1 thing that makes everything you play on your guitar so much easier and a lot more fun?
- Play song after song on your guitar so you can entertain friends and family with complete confidence?
- See improvements in your guitar playing, starting today, and continue week in and week out - without countless hours of practice?
- Stop feeling frustrated with how long it's taking you to learn how to play guitar, and finally get the results you deserve so you can start playing and creating actual music?
I understand how you feel. I've experienced the same frustrations and setbacks you're having now, when I was learning how to play guitar back, in the mid-1980's. I started with no guitar teacher - for the first 2 years! ... Massive mistake...
So I relied on guitar method books, videos and magazines...
The guitar teachers I did end up choosing, just showed me more and more 'stuff'...
Sure the content was there, but there was no training on how to apply and integrate those ideas to really make it a part of my guitar playing...
There was no teaching or guidance on how to master the formula for chord transitions Or how to develop great technique. No instruction on the quickest way to learn something - it was, "here's your lesson, now go home and practice it!"
Looking back it was like driving around with two flat tyres. And what I didn't know then... until years later... I had formed and was forming massive bad habits that were to last for years...
What I Learnt Though Was...
No amount of guitar instruction (free or paid for) is going to cut it for you - if it doesn't train you how to practice it properly.
Sure, you may go home and "practice it"... but without being trained on how to practice your guitar, you're on your own, experiencing the same lack of progress, session after session.
The key to progressing quickly on your guitar - without investing hours and hours practicing for little return, is not about learning 1000's of different things. It's about focusing, on several core areas and doing them thousands of times... and having the right guitar teacher to train you how to do just that.
A guitar teacher who is trained to teach you guitar...
Someone who can keep you on the right track. Certified to guide you to becoming the guitar player you want to be. Playing the way you've always wanted to, while having fun every step of the way.
Unless these core elements are in place, the reality is... getting more of what you're already getting - learning a lot, but not getting the improvements you want!
When I discovered all of this, I also discovered the guitar teaching trainer who trained me to train you...
As a guitar teacher and trainer this is what I do - teach and train you to get the results you desperately want.
I'll help you:
You'll not only have fun every step of the way, learning your favourite songs, but you will be taught how to take all the skills and techniques you'll learn and to practice them effectively, so you can become the guitar player you want to be in a shorter amount of time. As there is no reliance on outdated, traditional guitar methods, Gold Coast School of Guitar does things differently, through modern guitar teaching formats, to give you the best guitar lessons on the Gold Coast...

Here's What You Get:
1. The number #1 skill you need to play great songs on your guitar. Without this skill, even if it's one of the easiest songs you want to play, it won't be comfortable for you. With expert guidance, this will quickly become second nature for you so you can play entire songs easily - with complete confidence
2. Your time and money saved from possible years of unnecessary frustration and countless struggles. With training on how to play guitar the right way, and a rock-solid understanding of the basics under your fingers, you will learn the exact things you need to know. Not only know them, but how to practice them correctly so you can say goodbye to little or no improvement
3. Simple, super easy ideas on how to start writing your own songs. You'll be surprised at how easy this is, and you really don't need to know much to start doing this - in fact you probably already know enough things to start doing this today
4. Structure through a lesson and practicing strategy. Having this structure in place, will set you straight on down the road ahead and keep you there. With this key piece in place, you will learn to play your guitar the way you want, as quickly as possible
5. Teaching on how learning through making mistakes. There is power in seeing how you can't do something, yet. It's our natural way of learning things and you will make continual progress
6. Instant feedback to keep you focused at all times. You've got your target to go for and I will help you aim like a missile aiming to hit it. Instead of your usual slow, casual zig-zags to get you back in line, like you're experiencing now, you'll be given tight, quick and accurate course corrections to make certain you reach your goal every single time
7. The only guitar teacher in the Gold Coast area who is certified as an Elite Guitar Teacher. No other teacher on the Gold Coast has this training and certifications - and it's on going! What does this mean for you? The more training I receive and complete, the better you get at playing guitar
8. Get Your Practice Into Focus So You Can Increase Your Skills Quickly. If you're tired of practicing chords and scales and not hearing them turn into music, you know that 'practice more' theories are not enough. It's not hours and hours of practicing that helps you - it's having focused practice to see rapid improvements. You will learn how to do this even if you only have a few minutes each day to practice
9. Properly developed habits that will bring all of your technique, theory and playing skills together. You can feel confident in knowing you will be no longer hindered in your guitar playing progress. Can you imagine how great you are going to feel playing your way through all those favourite songs of yours?
10. Feel great playing. You'll feel a deep sense of satisfaction knowing that, when you leave the studio to go home to practice, you'll know exactly what you need to be working on, and HOW to work on the material. In fact, it's likely you'll be having so much fun you won't want to go home
To Become The Guitar Player You've Always Wanted To Be, Learning Songs IS What You Need To Do - It's Just Not All You Need
In todays guitar instruction marketplace, you can get songs from anywhere and any teacher can show you songs. Most normal guitar lessons though, usually consist of - "put your fingers here and do this... now go home and practice it".
While there is truth in that motto - you do have to practice, how can you develop the skills to play songs, if all you're taught is where to put your fingers?
Bottom line is - most people who learn to play guitar, can't play songs, because they need the skills!
To get these skills, your guitar teacher should be installing in you the correct playing and practicing habits from the start. This way, you become trained in how to play your favourite guitar songs easily.
For your progress to be effective, so you can see and receive great value each week, your guitar lessons should be filled with:
Your guitar teacher should be thoroughly trained in these methods and strategies, with easy, simple actions for you to do, to ensure your guitar playing success.

Ten Things You Should Get (As A Minimum) In Your Guitar Lessons:
1. Four Key Steps To Learning New Information: There are four crucial steps you need to know to produce great results with your guitar playing. They assist to deepen your knowledge and understanding. Maximise your practice time and help turn your frustration into fun.
2. Taught HOW to practice - not just told to go home and practice: Your improvement at playing guitar will take off when you know how to practice guitar. Practicing effectively and deliberately will skyrocket your guitar playing abilities to levels unimaginable to you right now. Deep practicing is the key!
3. Training For Your Brain - Not Just Your Hands: What conventional guitar teachers don't teach you in their guitar lessons, is the importance of how to train your brain. Even though playing the guitar is a physical activity, it is the mental side that requires the most regular, consistent training. To get you to the next level on the guitar - to get you maximum results - it's more about what goes on in your head than what you do with your fingers.
4. Self Motivation: To help you become a better guitar player, you will learn exactly how to motivate, teach and 'coach' yourself in your daily practice. You will gain the skills and insights to help you overcome your unique playing challenges. This kind of teaching is not usually found in everyday guitar lessons.
5. Become A Master Of The Basics: If your goal is to become a guitar master or even just a better guitar player - your first step is to be a master of the basics. Mastery of the basics is the core strength of your guitar playing skills. The more advanced you become the more critical this strength is!
6. Positive Instant Feedback: Being coached and encouraged will inspire you to move to the next level. Constant and timely feedback is critical in developing your playing skills. Having the right information will give you the confidence to reach your playing goals.
7. New Playing Habits: All guitar players who have learnt on their own unconsciously pick up bad habits. These habits impede their growth as a musician. You will be shown how to eliminate these habits and rectify the mistakes you are unknowingly making. (This is a positive, empowering process)
8. Your Questions Answered: You may of learnt some things through a guitar book or a DVD or even online. Although these methods can be great...they fail to do one thing. One thing no book, DVD or online video can do for you. Answer the questions you have about deepening your understanding of the exercises or techniques. You will discover nothing is superior to REAL-LIFE guitar instruction
9. The Fast Track To Your Playing Goals: If you have been playing a while, working with the right guitar teacher will be indispensable to your advancement. If you are beginning to playing guitar and to guitar lessons, your learning curve will be 10x faster than learning on your own. All great guitar players study with the right guitar teacher - if it works for them, it will work for you!
10. Inspiration To Be A Better Guitar Player: My goal is to Teach, Lead and Inspire you to become the great guitar player you want to be. Not just to show you 'stuff' just because you 'show up'. I will help you solve your playing problems and eliminate your frustrations and struggles. I will be there with you every step of the way. As your guitar coach, trainer and mentor, this is my commitment to you.
You will not find these guitar lessons in any book or online...you won't find them anywhere else on the Gold Coast! Learn the correct playing and practicing habits, so you can save yourself years of frustration and countless setbacks.
Above all else, learning and playing guitar should be fun. And it will be for you, once all the fundamentals are in place, so you can go on to play your guitar in any style or genre you choose. Click on the orange button below to arrange your free introductory guitar session.
