Need assistance finding help
Ms. Viscusi was very nice and helpful, and even offered a very generous cut in the subscription, but after discussing it with my wife, we simply could not afford it. We are both retired and on social security. But I won’t give up learning guitar, I will continue on You Tube to learn.
Thank you and God Bless.

A great way to start your journey
I've used Justinguitar beginner course in the past but after a break I wanted a refresher and thought I'd give Guitar Tricks a go as I felt Justinguitar stalled a little when it got to intermediate (though I think he's worked on this). I'm enjoying going through the fundamentals course. I particularly like that when they teach you something that they then get you to use it in a song context. Playing songs is what it's all about, it's application of knowledge. and I'm looking forward to start the Rock path and trying some song tutorials. I have the app but tend to use the website and I think the GUI could be improved but it's fine for now.
Hard to stop playing
Hi, been a guitar learner for 10 days now! love the whole process of learning guitar. I had a choice between this and music2me or something, and I chose Guitar Tricks because of the pace, of the practice-oriented approach (even though I love theory in general). I started playing right away and it’s difficult to stop playing along with Anders, and I only halt my sessions because it starts to hurt…
I have a hard time playing the C major chord, but my motivation and enthusiasm aren’t going anywhere!
Anyway, I also found GT on Google, the semi-old school way (not an option when prompted to fill out a survey asking that question).
I’m happy so far and it’s SO WORTH THE MONEY!
For real, my dream of many years came true now! Can’t imagine NOT playing guitar 😍🥹
Thank you very much!
The content is good the web site is not super responsive
I like the content and feel like I am making progress each lesson. The only complaint, so far, is the slow response time of the website - there is always a delay when I click Next Lesson and I see that the page is starting to load but it takes too long. You can fix that.
Just took up playing at the ripe old…
Just took up playing at the ripe old age of 61 😊. The app is excellent for a complete beginner like me. Perfect pace and very clear instructions. Have the guitar 1 week with an idea of 4 chords and am slowly learning to change between them. The plan is to practice about 30min every day. So far so good with the app allowing me to go at my own pace and build confidence 🙂
Great experience
Very good experience with Guitar Tricks from the start. Excellent customer service. The lessons are broken down in a way that makes it easy to learn guitar. I'm really enjoying it too. I commit to 20 minutes per day, which makes it achievable. Highly recommend them.
The teacher (Mouridsen) is very well spoken.
The teacher (Mouridsen) is very inviting, explicit and provides the details to correct common problems. The course take me through skill training in a gradual and positive manner. My only difficulty is with the red box blocking some of the notations. It needs to be moved superior. I compensate by printing the notations or opening it on another screen. However, it doesn't always scroll, so I have to stop playing and manually scroll or wait for it to change in the video.
Some review of my forever beginner status before moving on. The song suggestions are great.
So far most has been review and I have skipped over some. Going back over some lessons is always helpful.
I like the suggested songs to learn at each level. The song lessons are put together nicely and easy to follow and they are done at a level that I have learned. Many sites don't teach songs very well or only part of it.
I am looking forward to where I will be in a few months.

This company offers your money back in 60 days no questions asked. I didn't have time to take full advantage of the service, so I asked for my money back and they gave it to me just as they said no questions asked. I will definitely join again when I have more time to learn guitar. It is a great platform!
Great Guitar resource and support
I have used GuitarTricks on and off for 18 months, the lesson are great and varied, If you want to make progress a good online resource with feedback if you ask for it. For financial reasons I had to suddenly cancel my subs, and reached out to support and they refunded me with 24 hours, great service and follow
I love these lessons with Anders…
I love these lessons with Anders Mauridsen. He teaches slow enough that I can perform what he is teaching. I can review any lessons whenever I want and can move on to a new lesson when ready. Clearly and thoroughly taught lessons — I give Anders an A+
These lessons are super convenient
These lessons are super convenient, ready anytime, and I can go at my own pace. Sometimes I go through several lessons at once, or go back and review a lesson as many times as I feel necessary. As a beginning guitar player, my fingertips get sore and it helps to break up my sessions into smaller chunks a couple of times a day. Easy to do with this. After only a couple of weeks, I can see improvement.
Absolutely fantastic for all levels of playing guitar
Absolutely a great way to get to know your guitar and to immediately start to learn by doing and practicing. Everything is explained at such a nice, focused pace, making each lesson easy to follow without clutter or losing focus on the subject or technique that you’re learning.

The method to me has always been a clear road by comparison to others. The guidance, techniques and teaching is the right system in place, the correct direction to progress.
Feels like personal lessons
So far, so good. The pacing and structure, both overall and in each video, is great. I am a brand new player and this is the first time I've found something in a digital format that feels close to personal lessons.

Signed up for guitar tricks but found I just didn’t have the time to properly utilize the program. I asked for the refund within the 60 days trial and they promptly, without any hassles, refunded just as they said they would.
Highly recommend this app
Highly recommend this app. It’s user-friendly, and the lessons are expertly designed to make concepts clear, especially for those just starting out. I’ve learned more using this app than I did in four weeks with a live instructor.
