Rock Guitar Fundamentals, Seven Hours Deep

This course assumes you might be a complete beginner and builds from there—posture, tuning, tablature—but it doesn't stop there. Over seven hours, you'll cover power and barre chords, riffs from Van Halen and Slash, the CAGED system, alternate picking, legato, and advanced techniques like tapping and harmonics.

The curriculum mirrors real rock playing: rhythm fundamentals (shuffle, swing), scale theory, phrasing, and genre-specific tricks. You'll see solo performances broken down, learn speed drills, and get practical tips from the instructor's own performing and teaching journey.

There's no fluff—just solid instruction aimed at getting you playing rock guitar competently. If you're serious about the instrument, this foundation covers the essentials you need to keep building.
