Learn Guitar: Go from complete beginner to guitar fingerpicking in 30 Days

Hi – my name is Patrick and welcome to my course – guitar fingerpicking in 30 days. I have being fingerpicking guitar for 20 years and I have taught dozens of students to go from never having picked up a guitar before to being really accomplished players.

Have you ever dreamed of playing guitar or even started but then faded away after a while? Do you think it’s going to be years of practice before you sound good? Would you be excited if I told you you didn’t have to just play boring chords for the first six months – you could actually be fingerpicking within 30 days?

Over the years, I have experimented and realised that there is a way to teach students that seems like starting with what many would believe to be a ‘complex’ or ‘advanced’ style – fingerpicking using the thumb and three fingers – is actually the best way for a complete beginner to learn.

There is good reason for this. The traditional method of learning chords and strumming them is relatively easy to do, but actually surprisingly hard to do well. Listen to any beginner strum a set of chords and you see it is hard for the beginner to sound musical after a couple of days. But if you start picking strings individually, then after 4 or 5 days, you can play some really nice pieces. And this is the key: rewarding the student from day one, enabling them to sound musical within the first week. Believe me, I have seen this work time and time again.

When you want to learn the guitar, it matters hugely which course and teacher you pick. The cost of getting this wrong isn’t that you lose out on $30-50, it is that the teaching may not stick for you and you may end up with a life where you never learn guitar, rather a life where picking up the guitar is a huge joy and pleasure for you, whether just on your own or playing with other musicians.

For a complete beginner, there is no more effective and no more enjoyable, musical and confidence building way than to start with a couple of chords and a fingerpicking technique.

How is this course structured?

This course is designed to be followed by students in a 30 day period. Of course, some students may go faster and some slower – (if you cover this material in 60 days, you’re still doing a great job). The course has five sections

1. Getting Started – some basic information, identifying string names, a few chords, reading tablature, using a metronome
2. Fingerpicking Basics – the background to how fingerpicking works, the big rule, several fingerpicking patterns
3. The Thumb – the key to getting that ‘two guitar effect’ is for the thumb to do the work of the bass player; alternating bass, walking bass, more fingerpicking patterns
4. The Fingers – adding more advanced patterns to the right hand fingers, pinching, different sequence length and writing your own fingerpicking patterns
5. Advanced – clear breakdowns of advanced techniques like Travis Picking and Clawhammer

Note that each section has 5-7 individual lessons with a homework exercise after each lesson. At the beginning of the following lesson, I will give tips for anyone stuck with practical ways to get it mastered if you’re finding it difficult.

At the end of my course, students will be able to…

• play the most common guitar chords in a fingerpicking style
• understand how to break down fingerpicking patterns into the bass/thumb and the melody/fingers and how to practice building up the component parts
• read tablature and play along to a metronome
• have a formula for composing their own fingerpicking patterns
• play in travis picking and clawhammer styles
