Learning guitar has never been easier!

Do you want to start learning guitar but have no idea where to start?
Are you desperately looking for a starting point but all the YouTube videos you watch seem to start from a year into playing?
Do you find it difficult to find the time to learn guitar with: a career, a family, life, etc?
I started my journey with guitar when I was 13 years old and it’s been the greatest, most fun, motivating, challenging, inspiring, soothing and most fulfilling thing I’ve ever done. No matter what is going on in my life, I can always forget about everything that’s going on around me and just play the guitar.
Growing up, we didn’t have much money and my parents couldn’t pay for lessons, it was until high school when I started working and was able to take a few guitar lessons with local teachers to start learning the instrument.
I didn’t have much luck with local teachers as you may already know. I found most to be flaky, unreliable, and had no focused program where I had a starting point and then could build on it. Most lessons were like throwing crap at a wall and seeing if it would stick. I would save up a bunch of money, go for a a few weeks or months and then have nothing to show for it. I learned the most by teaching myself, understanding a solid foundation for the guitar and then learning songs. I’ve definitely learned the hard way. Learn from my mistakes!

Hi, my name’s Justin and I’ve been playing guitar for 20+ years. Music has always been a HUGE part of my life. I love all kinds of music but my favorite is definitely classic rock! I started a YouTube channel in ’07 where I posted one video of me playing the solo from Pink Floyd’s Comfortably Numb.
The video went viral soon after posting resulting in a few hundred thousand views and tons of comments asking me how to play the solo. I then started making guitar lessons for viewers and since then, have helped people and players learn techniques and the guitar from all over the world. I currently have almost 110,000 subscribers and 500+ videos on my YouTube channel.
When I’m not playing guitar I’m working as a full time professional firefighter paramedic in Arizona. In my spare time I love spending time with my kids, family and love watching movies and being outdoors. My passion is helping people and my lifelong legacy is to help the most people learn and stay motivated with the guitar possible. I love hearing from people who I’ve helped so if my videos or video has helped you, please let me know by shooting me a message to [email protected]!
I have spent the last 13 years taking requests and posting the “how-to” on YouTube. You can always hit me up with a new request! As you can imagine, I receive all kinds of requests these days – so you may need to be patient – but I will always do my best to get your request published.
