A Full Technical Revamp Course with over 30 Detailed Instructional Videos

[leadplayer_vid id=”52B33DF94B7EC”]

Discount Price $35

Important Note if you are reading this page for the first time!

I’m releasing this course in its “beta” version in time for the holidays. If you purchase it at this price you’ll have complete access to all future improvements and upgrades, some of which will come with an increase in price.

The videos are all filmed, but the final set (Coordinating the Hands) is still in its editing stage, and I’ll be adding them to the site as I complete them over the next week or so. Once they are all posted, the price will go up.

There will also be an accompanying Ebook that will be released early in 2014 (free to you if you purchase on or before the 25th of December, 2013)

I’ll be looking for ways to upgrade it in the future based on your feedback), including offering it as an actual 5-week Webinar-style Technique Revamp Course with active student participation.

Full Refund Guarantee:

If find for any reason you are not satisfied with this set of videos, even if it’s just that you can’t stand the color of the carpet that shows up in some of the camera views or dislike my haircut, I’ll refund you in full, no questions asked.

My Guarantee:

If you use the material here in a consistent and dedicated way, your playing will improve tremendously.

“Jay’s pedagogy is clear and accessible. He takes into account all levels of students, so the beginner doesn’t run away discouraged or the advanced turn off because they’re not challenged.”

Mark Scott

“Jay’s approach to teaching is distracting me TO the music and away from the usual din in my head which disconnects me from both my hands and the guitar. So instead of listening to the whirlwind of chopped up thoughts I’m usually having while practicing, which are mostly negative (did that wrong, strings ALWAYS buzz, my hands must be misshapen, shouldn’t be even trying to do this, etc.), I am listening to the guitar — to the strings. The second thing is coming naturally from the first: I am feeling a direct connect between my mind, hands and back and shoulders and what sounds are happening. So I feel in control. “
