Your Guitar Journey Starts Here

Get Started

Play Your First Song,
Start To Finish.

If you can walk and talk at the same time, you have more than enough coordination to become a great guitar player. GuitarQuest will have you playing your FIRST song within an hour.

Play this. Play that.
And then play more.

On the guitar.

Your guitar is a tool for self expression. Break past major chords and single notes — and build the technical foundation you need to write music, record songs, and make your creative projects come to life.

Skip the boring stuff. GuitarQuest is designed to get you playing songs faster, hooked and returning to the guitar more often, and making your own musical projects come to life with entertaining video missions and fluff-free exercises.

Your Mission

Music is a language — and just like you didn’t start talking by understanding prepositions and nouns, you shouldn’t learn guitar by endlessly studying theory. Instead, let’s just start playing!

We'll play a show, shoot a music video, make commercial jingles, rock out, make a BUNCH of noise and write a ton of your own music along the way.

GuitarQuest isn’t an all-in-one-guide, it’s not a step by step curriculum. It’s hardly even guitar lessons! You’ll start with a mission: There’s a concert going on RIGHT NOW but the guitarist didn’t show. And they’re turning to you! Just learn these chords...

And level after level, we’re going to trick you into playing things you didn’t think you could, faster than you expected — and you’ll end up doing the repetition and practice NOT because it’s practice, but because you’re making something cool happen!

You’ll gain momentum that keeps you hooked and falling more and more in love with the guitar. And you'll have the freedom to take your guitar journey anywhere you want — playing songs, jamming with your friends, and writing your own music.

I think you’re going to love it.
