Hi everyone. I'm Keith and I have a green guitar. I set up this website to help people learn how to play guitar and have fun at the same time.

A few years ago a friend of mine asked me if I would teach his son how to play guitar.

Initially I was reluctant since I hadn't really played professionally for a while and it was even longer since I'd taught guitar.

But I thought, hey the little guy is pretty keen (he was only 9 at the time) so why not just record a few lessons and put them up on a private website where he can have access to them.

This worked pretty well and to my surprise, it was great fun. So I did a few more lessons . . then a few more and before long he was whizzing up and down the fretboard and writing his own songs.

After 6 months or so, we had a pile of easy to digest lessons so I thought I might as well make them available to other people so they can also become guitar heroes.

This website is the distilled result of all of those lessons. Enjoy!

P.S. I'm a graduate of City of Leeds College Of Music and I play solo gigs singing and playing mostly my own songs and blues classics.

As you'll know there are many styles of playing the guitar and I don't intend to try and teach you all of these styles and skills - there are plenty of other courses on the internet that do it much better than me.

However, I will get you on to the first rung of the guitarist ladder and point you in the right direction to climb as high as you want to.
