You'll begin the app by working through our basics courses. After you've mastered those, the app splits into two paths so that you can work on two different goals you might have - the Lead Path and the Chords Path. You can focus on one, or switch between them whenever you like. Choose the path (or paths!) that feel right for you. 🙌
You’ll see three rows of courses:
Lead Path (top row)
This path focuses on playing melodies and riffs from songs you love. You’ll learn how to read tabs, improve your technique, and boost your skills with targeted exercises.
Combined Courses (middle row)
These special courses bring together what you’ve learned from both the Lead and Chords paths. You'll need to complete the courses from both paths leading up to these to prepare for them.
Chords Path (bottom row)
Here, you'll learn to play the chords of the most well-known pop, rock, and jazz songs. You’ll work on smooth chord switching and strumming techniques to confidently accompany any tune.
Feel free to choose your own path. There is no right or wrong. Do you want to focus on chords? Or are you ready to lead? Everything is possible!
⏳ What happens when I reach the end?
That means you’ve completed all the currently available lessons in that path. Here's a list of the final courses for each path:
Lead Path – Fretboard Master I
Combined Courses – Rock Legend IV
Chords Path – Fingerpicking Basics III
If you don’t see a next course, it just means you've reached the end (for now)!
But don’t worry, there’s plenty more to explore and ways to keep improving:
