Learning guitar online doesn’t mean you have to go it alone!

We understand that simply having access to 1000s of lessons isn’t a guaranteed recipe for success. You need long and short term goals, motivation and the confidence that you are learning and practicing the right way, with the right stuff for you.

All Licklibrary members have access to 1 on 1 video support with a Licklibrary tutor. If you need some help with your technique or a song, or are just feeling stuck in a rut, you can change all that with live support.
