Your Instructor

I'm Jon MacLennan, a long-time Los Angeles-based musician, artist, songwriter, producer and instructor with over 20 years of experience playing music for a living and teaching acoustic/electric guitar and ukulele. As a session and touring musician, I have played guitar for top artists in the blues and rock genres, and for TV and film projects with major movie studios and television networks, including: Twentieth Century Fox, Disney Channel, the NHL and Amazon Studios. You may have seen my music lessons online, where I have helped MILLIONS of students improve their guitar playing!

 

How to get started playing guitar!

When it comes to getting started playing guitar there is a lot of bad information out there!
You may have been told myths like in order to play well you have to be born with musical talent, or you have to start young, or you’ll never be good unless you learn complicated theory.

And I’m here to tell you that it’s just not true.

Perhaps you’ve tried and maybe you've failed before. I totally understand your frustration and disappointment.
Maybe you worked with another teacher online or even in person, and found that the lessons you were getting were too hard or just way too boring.

What I’ve found is that boring exercises and getting bogged down in complicated theory won’t really get you where you want to go.

In fact students that are taught this way eventually end up getting burned out and lose all inspiration to play!

I’m here to tell you “It’s not your fault!”

Students need a well organized step-by-step process that’s going to cover all the ESSENTIALS that they NEED to know. They also need what they are playing to be rooted in popular songs they love so practice doesn’t feel like work. When these things come together a student will have the best foundation to set them up for a lifetime of enjoying their instrument.

How to save years of frustration!

After having taught millions of students online, and before that it was years ago with in-person lessons, I have honed the EXACT FORMULA for the FASTEST way to get started playing guitar and finally having fun with your instrument!

It can be overwhelming in the new era of guitar education because there are more options than ever to learn how to play.

But how do you know that the person you are learning from can get you where you want to go?

How do you know if your teacher is even good?

What if you are learning the wrong way?

When you've never played before unfortunately you don't know.

After 25+ years of playing music for a living, teaching, gigging, touring and recording in big studios with some of the BIGGEST names in music.

I’m here to tell you that you can skip years of frustration with my step-by-step plan to play guitar that works!

So now you have a choice to make! Let's look at the options of how else to learn this.

Option 1: Private Lessons (Base Price $9,600/Year)

The material in this course is going to cover about your first 9-12 months of guitar lessons if you were taking one-on-one weekly lessons with me.

In person clients in the past have paid over $10,000 for me to teach them this EXACT material.

Private lessons are great, but they are also expensive, and as I mentioned above how do you know if your teacher really knows how to get you where you want to go? You could end up wasting time and eventually getting burned out if your teacher is having you play a bunch of pointless boring exercises. 

In any other situation you have to be prepared to dish out thousands of dollars.
Even at "normal" guitar lesson prices, just look at how expensive it would be:

Online programs save you thousands of dollars! 

The other disadvantage of private instruction is that you have to remember everything the teacher says. They are not there to guide you when you are practicing at home. In an online course you're getting very focused and organized lessons that will reward you for a lifetime. Plus you don't have to leave the comfort of your home.

Option #2: 

Try to learn this for "free" on YouTube 

 

Now I hesitate to even put this as an optional method for a TOTAL beginner. I DO NOT recommend as a good way to start. 

Don't get me wrong, there is a lot of great info out, but in the guitar space it is WAY too saturated with unfortunately a lot of instructors spreading BAD information.

There is no barrier to entry for a guitar instructor, which is why I would encourage you to look at anyone who you are learning from and listen to them actually play a song, because that is what they sound like. Also check and see if they have ACTUAL REAL WORLD MUSIC CREDITS. 

Learning guitar online is a giant black hole that can easily lead you to frustration and overwhelm. It's much easier to get value from it and also navigate it better after a few years of playing are under your belt. 

 

I always put "free" in a quotations, because it's never really free... eventually you have to pay someone to help you unlearn all the wrong techniques you have been practicing, which could take months and become costly!

When you're a beginner you don't know where to start and you'll find that everyone seems to be telling you something different.

In this system you are going to learn the ESSENTIAL inside information that only a real-world professional can provide. I've been where you are, and I made it through to the other side, plus I've been teaching this exact material for 25+ years and my students have had INCREDIBLE results.

Let me make it much easier for you!
