Revealed: Age 50+ and new to the guitar or frustrated? Discover...
A step-by-step beginner method To Fix the "gaping holes" in your playing from day one
...Even if you've never played guitar before or you've struggled for decades
Dear beginner (or frustrated) guitarist,
Do you ever wish you knew exactly what to practise each day—so you could finally feel confident on the guitar, without wasting time or second-guessing yourself?
If so, I want to share a simple, proven system with you that has already helped many others, and it could start transforming your playing today.
This isn’t hype. (You can read the comments from other guitarists below who’ve experienced it firsthand.)
I’ve found this approach to be especially powerful for those learning later in life—or for anyone who’s been stuck, frustrated, or spinning their wheels with the guitar for years.
Dan Thorpe is a certified guitar teacher. He has over 11 years of experience teaching beginner 50+-year-olds from day 1.
Dan believes in easy-going and simple lessons you can do at your own pace, while teaching you to play the songs you love.
He's also a member of the Registry of Guitar Tutors.
Here’s how it all began...
In 2020-21, I authored two best-selling Amazon books with 629 reviews to date...
Lee, a retired firefighter, told me he’d “struggled for 40 years” and couldn’t play a single song.
Small hands, arthritis, lots of random tips, and no plan.
I taught him the exact plan I want to tell you about today.
And that included a simple progress path to follow, a daily routine: one-finger chords, a famous riff, and simple but essential techniques that most tutors gloss over or miss entirely.
Just a few weeks later, he went from feeling "hopeless" and ready to quit...
To playing “Wonderful Tonight” for his wife.
...And without the pain or the guesswork that is common in the guitar world.
That same routine is the backbone of this course.
This is what Janet said about the course:
"For the first time in my life, I’m singing and playing!"
“I’ve learned more in the past week than in the many years I’ve carried around a guitar. For the first time in my life, I’m singing and playing at the same time and it feels natural!”
Janet
There are many more testimonials in the course that you will see inside.
Now, I'll show you...
If you can tune up your guitar, you too can get these rapid results... I call it...
The Breakthrough Beginner Guitar Course
So, here's the deal...
This course has been created specifically for beginner guitarists or those who have struggled to play for years.
It works if you play acoustic or electric guitar, if you lack confidence in yourself, and the lessons will help even if you struggle with issues such as arthritis.
In the past, you've probably tried books, courses, and lessons from other tutors that didn't quite hit the spot.
Some were probably a big, fat waste of time and money.
A Done-for-You Specific Plan
Play REAL music from Day 1
No Theory, Scales, or Complex Chords
The Secrets to Playing
Like Your Heroes
Easy-to-Follow
Clear and Concise Lessons
How it works and exactly what's inside...
This is what's included in these fast, confidence-building beginner lessons...
...You'll also get a structure to follow, meaning no more confusion as to what to practise - ever again...
Plus, get support from me and other members in the course, where you can leave a comment on each video, ask questions, and get help as and when you need it.
"The lessons are like having one-to-one lessons with Dan where he shows you exactly what to do." - Mike
If you think you're too old to learn or not talented enough, think again.
Most of my students were learning later on in life or were struggling for decades, but made great progress.
You can too.
This course is based on the 1000s of hours of lessons I've taught and the feedback I've gained from teaching real people like you in real life...
...So you can rest assured that the plan will work for you.
In short, the Breakthrough Beginner Course is:
This is NOT for skilled guitarists, "shredders", or those looking for long, advanced lessons
The truth is, this course is NOT for everyone.
It's a short and focused course for pop, rock, folk, blues, and all-around casual guitarists.
If you've played for years, can play loads of songs, and feel confident, this is very likely not for you.
Yet, if you're brand new to guitar, stuck, or need a helping hand and want confidence-building lessons that will help remove doubt, fear, and anxiety...
...This is for you.

Here's what a handful of students have said so far...
"I look forward to picking up my guitar every day!"
“Having taken beginning guitar lessons, in person, and online from at least 5 other instructors, Dan really hits the high points and concentrates on the basics more than others I’ve found. He doesn’t make assumptions. At 72 I find that a very comfortable approach. I’m enjoying things so far.”
James Sanders
"It gave me a real foundation to finally move forward properly."
“I’m 70, retired, and basically a three-chord strummer who never progressed, despite trying DVD’s and courses for years. I decided to completely reset and work through Breakthrough Beginner as if I was brand new. I have to say, I enjoyed it — and I actually learned a lot, even after decades of playing. It gave me a real foundation to finally move forward properly.”
Michael Clarke
“I am loving the course so far and have learned so much"
Thank you so much for trying to help those who have struggled with this lovable mess of wood and wire that we call a guitar. Even after a week off from injuring my thumb, I couldn’t wait to get back to the strings!"
