UNLOCK THE FRETBOARD AND PLAY WITH TOTAL FREEDOM.

Stop guessing. Start hearing the changes.

Pick your path:

You’ve been playing for years. You’ve learned a lot. Scales, chords, modes, licks. But when the harmony moves, it still feels like you're guessing.

If you can play a lot but you still can’t improvise through changes, you’re in the right place.

Not sure which path is right for you?

Where do you feel stuck most?

"I finally know what to practice."

"I stopped noodling and started playing."

"I can actually hear the changes now."

Hi, I'm Daniel.

I've spent the last decade taking scattered guitar knowledge and turning it into a system that delivers results. Most guitarists don't struggle because they're not talented. They struggle because the order is unclear. I organize the fundamentals so you can finally get real freedom.

Why this works when everything else feels scattered

Order

You stop guessing what to practice next. Every step builds on the last.

Connection

We don't rely on shapes alone. We use harmony targets that actually connect to the music.

Feedback

In mentorship, you get unstuck fast because I tell you exactly what to fix.

Ways To Learn With Me

Both paths use the same system. Mentorship is that system, personalized, with me on you every week.

Frequently Asked Questions

I've bought courses before and they didn't stick. What makes this different?

Order, feedback, and accountability. Most courses fail because you get stuck and have no one to ask. In Mentorship, I keep you moving. In Self Study, the step-by-step order removes the guesswork.

What skill level is this for?

If you’ve been playing for a few years and you know basic chords and scales, but you can’t connect ideas through changes in real time, you’re the right fit.

How much time do I need per day?

30-45 minutes of focused practice is better than 2 hours of noodling. Mentorship helps you strip away the fluff so you can progress on a busy schedule.

Do I need to read music?

No. Standard notation is not required.

Ready to unlock the fretboard?

Most players here already have years of playing and scattered theory. This is where it finally clicks.
