Go further with your guitar chops
Our Creative Guitar Skills course is for those looking to broaden their possibilities and practical guitar techniques. Get your musical ideas onto the guitar by studying things like extended chords, exotic scales, lead guitar approaches, voicings, inversions, blues patterns, alternate tunings, improvisation, and more. You'll practice popular songs before writing your own creative guitar parts. This three-month course is guided by a pro guitar instructor in small groups. Once you've learned the guitar skills shared by professional guitarists and producers, your own music is sure to improve.
Join a global alumni community with the likes of PB London graduate Leona Lewis. Get exclusive masterclasses from the likes of Annie Mac, Nile Rodgers, Trevor Horn, DJ Spoony, Basement Jaxx and more. Our Course Advisors will support you through the enrolment process, so please contact us with any questions.
