NEW & HOT See the latest guitar lessons and the trending content other learners are watching right now, together in one place. Useful for when you have finished a course and want somewhere to go next. GUITAR ARTICLES AND TIPS Read guitar tips, tutorials, and how-to guides for the questions that come up away from the instrument: how to hold a chord cleanly, what the strings are called, why a chord buzzes, how to build a practice routine that actually sticks. WHY VIDEO RATHER THAN TEXT A chord shape is much easier to copy than to read about. Watching a hand move, at your own speed, with a pause button, gets most beginners past the first few weeks faster than any diagram does. Replay the same eight seconds twenty times if that is what it takes - nobody is counting. WHAT TO EXPECT IN THE FIRST WEEK Your first chords, how to hold them so they ring cleanly instead of buzzing, and a simple strumming pattern to put underneath them - enough to play along with a lot of songs. The rest builds from there. WHO IT IS FOR Complete beginners who have never held a guitar. Players coming back to it after years away. Anyone who learned three chords once and wants to turn them into real songs. You do not need to read music, and you do not need any theory to start. HOW TO GET THE MOST FROM IT Short and often beats long and rare. Ten or fifteen minutes a day, one lesson at a time, will take you further than a single long session at the weekend. Pick a course, watch the lesson, then put the phone down and play it. Open the app and start your first guitar lesson today.

ExploreModes — App Store Description Discover what makes each musical mode sound unique — and learn how to use that sound on guitar. ExploreModes is a practical guide to the seven modes, combining ear training, music theory, harmony and fretboard practice to help you move beyond simply memorising scale patterns. Rather than treating modes as abstract formulas, ExploreModes helps you hear the differences that give each mode its character. EXPLORE ALL SEVEN MODES Learn the sound and structure of: • Ionian • Dorian • Phrygian • Lydian • Mixolydian • Aeolian • Locrian Each lesson focuses on the notes and harmonic ideas that make that mode distinctive. HEAR THE DIFFERENCE Compare modes with familiar major and minor sounds and listen for the characteristic intervals that change their mood. Short audio examples help connect the theory on screen with what you actually hear. UNDERSTAND THE HARMONY Hear modal chord progressions and discover how characteristic chords help establish each mode. Use repeating vamps as a backing for your own guitar improvisation. PUT IT ON THE GUITAR Interactive fretboard diagrams show where the important notes sit under your fingers. Use the included playing suggestions to experiment with each modal sound rather than simply running up and down a scale.
