Why taking this course

Guitarists are often confused about 7th chords, 9/11/13 extensions, how to use dim7 chords in a progression, fingerpicking patterns etc.

When we gather with friends or we visit a guitar store, we sometimes don’t know what to play.

This course wants to clarify in an easy way, full of examples, some concepts that may seem daunting at first.

At the same time, you’ll learn plenty of chord progressions to use anytime you pick up the guitar and want to noodle.

All this will help you understanding your favourite songs and developing the creativity to make your own chord progressions.
