From the studio of guitar teacher, Dan Thorpe...

Dear fingerpicking guitarist,

If you don`t already know, I`m Dan Thorpe, I’m NOT a world-famous guitarist and I don’t have a degree in music.

What I can tell you though, is that I am very experienced in teaching adults...

....aged 40+ how to fingerpick properly, play with great technique and learn guitar in the most fun way possible so they love every second of their playing.

There is a big problem in the world of guitar playing and fingerpicking in particular...

So many guitarists out there are struggling.

You may be one of these where you play guitar so quietly as you fear somebody may hear you.

You may feel unmusical and talentless.

You might even struggle alone each day, wondering why you can`t do it and...

Why all the time and money you wasted on courses, books and YouTube still don`t help.

I know I did.

The truth is, we all feel that way, and eventually some guitarists overcome their hurdles but more often than not...

The guitar just gets locked away in the attic...

Along with a lifelong desire of being able to play beautiful music for themselves, BUT did you know...

The problem is NOT with the student.

The real problem is the fact that most guitar tuition is too random and...

There is no precise plan for the student to follow.

Beginner and struggling guitarists need guidance, a clear path to follow, and a plan.

I know this from my many 1000s of hours of teaching real people, but...

Now, this clear path has been put together in a book which covers these bases and much more...

All in a step-by-step method taking you from lost or confused...

To helping you become the fingerpicking guitarist you have dreamt of being....

Learn the two most useful, common and exciting "Travis picking" patterns you likely ever need to know to allow you to play loads of classic songs and ideas.
The most destructive bad habit that 99% of beginner fingerpickers struggle with and the specific steps to fix it (warning - this habit ruins the day-to-day playing for most guitarists).
How to reduce your brain age - do this simple fingerpicking exercise each day and science has proven that it could possibly reduce your brain age by up to ten years.

Fingerstyle 101 is specifically written for those who are 40+, new to fingerpicking or have struggled with it in the past

The good news about learning an instrument is that it is good for your brain.

A recent BBC study* on identical twins even showed that doing something creative each day can reduce your brain age by 6 years in just one month!

The guitar is perfect for this sort of creativity.

In the book I show you how to be creative while fingerpicking so you can get these big potential benefits.

You are NOT too old to learn!

Age is not a barrier.

Remember, if you are like most of my students, you will most likely have doubts about your playing too.

Everyone has doubts but you DO have the ability to be a good guitarist and have fun on the guitar.

I have taught dozens of guitarists who started when they were over 60. They doubted they were good enough at first but they made it.

The only caveats are NOT giving up and using a proper plan/proven method - both certainly make the journey easier.

If you are fed up of hopping around or using random YouTube videos where the instructor loses you along the way, then this book is for YOU.

It is time to STOP being a frustrated guitarist and instead become one who has a constant, happy smile and cherishes playing

How cool would it be to spend some time playing guitar with your child or grandchild?

A little jam with them if they play an instrument can mean lots of wonderful moments and memories.

If you have struggled with fingerpicking previously, remember, you too can go from frustrated to happy and have more fun on the guitar, both on your own and with your family...

Just like I have with my own son, Archie.

Don`t waste time, don`t waste money - instead use a proven step-by-step fingerpicking plan

This book is full of years (and thousands of hours) worth of lessons and advice.

You could pay over £2000 ($2500) per year in-person to learn these things (just like my private students do) or you could get the book today at a fraction of that price.

Remember though, the small price for “Fingerstyle 101” will save you more than just money.

It will also save you a LOT of your precious time.

If you have waited until later on in life to learn guitar, don`t waste any more time.

Here are the first bits of feedback from the readers of the 2nd edition

A couple of weeks ago, I emailed the book to a handful of "beta test" students for review and feedback.

Here is what they said...

GORDON LYNCH

Harrogate, UK

Dan’s second edition of Fingerstyle 101 has been tweaked by constructive customer feedback to develop the fingerpicking patterns to an even higher level than thought possible.

This book represents a gold mine of fingerstyle technique and advice for guitarists of all levels.”

JIM MARSHALL

Pasadena, CA

Dan has done it again! This new, second edition of Fingerstyle 101 is another G.R.E.A.T. book. This is exactly what I, an old fart, need to boost my fingerstyle technique and motivation to practice."

REVEREND MICHAEL BOSTOCK

Newtownards, NI

Over the years, I have seen and attempted to follow several finger-picking guides but yours is succinct and very accessible. The text reads very well and is 'personable' - I get the feeling that you really do want your readers to achieve."

I have used several of Dan’s books. In my opinion, the second edition of Fingerstyle 101 is his best yet. The first edition was widely praised and became an Amazon bestseller.

The second edition is even better. It has even more practical tips and advice on mistakes to avoid.

It is ridiculously good value bearing in mind that it comes with downloadable audio and PDFs of all the exercises." - Mike Barron (Southampton, UK)

**Beware! Fingerstyle 101 is NOT for very advanced players or those who want a "quick fix"**

If you have played for decades, or you can play loads of songs and are 100% comfortable with fingerpicking, you may learn a few tricks, but the book is probably not for you.

If you want to play like Paul Simon, Eric Clapton, Tommy Emmanuel or James Taylor in an hour, let me tell you, that ain`t gonna happen.

The book is definitely NOT a quick fix but if you want an enjoyable and easy-to-follow plan for your fingerpicking success, then this is for you.

100% Satisfaction Guarantee

You are fully protected by our 100% Satisfaction Money-Back Guarantee. If you don't improve your fingerpicking, have more fun, and play with better technique in the next 90 days, just let me know and I will send you a prompt refund immediately, no questions asked.

I have no problem offering this kind of guarantee. Why?

The techniques I use to teach guitar work repeatedly for countless students of my own in real life. I know these techniques work. They’ll work for you too.

Because of this guarantee, there is no risk to you ordering this right now.

If you want to get the book, don`t hang around, and if you have wanted to improve on the guitar for some time, go for it - you deserve it.
