The beginner pathway was invaluable The beginner pathway has provided me with a foundation and direction that for me was an essential starting point. I was not sure when I began with Pick Up Music quite where I should begin from but I'm now convinced that the lessons learnt were invaluable. I would highly recommend Pick Up Music.

Pickup made me fall in love with the guitar all over again Have been looking for a platform to move me from my intermediate plateaux (who knew that was a thing?) for years. Pickup is excellent; a fresh, dynamic, responsive and above all fun user experience and I've fallen in love with playing all over again. Such a delightful community of players and musicians. An antidote to much of the metal-head / dad-rock guitar world that seems to dominate online. Thanks so much Pickup team!

Pickup music is a great place to learn… Pickup music is a great place to learn guitar - not only technical aspects, but also important components like feel, rhythm and style basics - along with music theory, but only if you don't mind it - nobody will ask you to learn all scales and modes and stuff. Highly recommended!

Worth every penny, and then some I was an intermediate guitar player that struggled to take my playing to the next level, so I decided to give pickupmusic.com a try. I started with the CAGED course and it opened up an entire new world for me. Dr. Miller is a fantastic instructor and helped me push past the rut I was in. I took quite a few courses after CAGED and they all helped with diversifying my playing. But now I’m taking their Soloing course and it’s giving me the skills and confidence of putting together my own solos, as well as improvising. I’m currently studying one of their pieces and transcribing my own solo, I’m calling it my capstone. I’d like to thank all the instructors. They’re all awesome. Even better, sometimes they put on zoom sessions, at no extra cost. You can also submit videos for feedback; I submitted one and received excellent, customized advice. And Sam’s weekly emails are always informative.

Simple and well structured Simple and well structured. The bending and vibrato is good knowledge for beginners. It may feel a bit long for intermediate players. I would love to digging more into different styles (such as John Mayer, SRV... and more challenging licks. One downside (together with many other courses on Pickup) is the lack of groove/beat/tempo instruction. Sometimes you dont know where and when to get in.
