Revealed: Aged 40+ and new to the guitar or frustrated? Read on to find the 8 key lessons most guitarists are never taught...
How this step-by-step beginner guitar method anyone can use will help you
Play real songs and make beautiful music
...Even if you've never played guitar before or you've struggled for decades
Think you're too old to learn guitar? Struggle with arthritis or small hands? Well, my average student's age is 67. In fact, many struggled for years, BUT from day 1 of this course, they saw results.
You can join them too and easily play songs people love, improve your "musical memory", and get the holy grail of playing... "unlocking" the fretboard. All WITHOUT boring theory, complex scales, and impossible chords.
From the studio of guitar teacher, Dan Thorpe...
Dear beginner or frustrated guitarist,
If you want to know exactly what to practise each day, build your guitar playing confidence using REAL proven methods...
...And play songs that will stun your loved ones faster than a rapid-fire Jimi Hendrix guitar solo, read on because...
I want to share eight unique guitar lessons with you that will make this happen...
And I want to tell you why it'll work for you.
....Especially if you're learning later on in life or if you've been struggling with the guitar for years.
So this is how it began...
Dan Thorpe is a certified guitar teacher. He has over 11 years of experience teaching beginner 40+-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.
In 2021, I authored two best-selling Amazon books with 629 reviews to date...
...And what happened next shocked me.
After struggling for years with arthritis and small hands...
...Lee grabbed a copy of my book.
He just wanted to play guitar for himself, not to be a "rock star".
Yes, maybe jamming with friends or playing an open-mic one day would be nice...
...But his dreams of playing music were being shattered day by day.
So he emailed me, asking for lessons.
And as Lee stepped into my studio, this tough retired firefighter dropped this bombshell and said:
"I've been struggling on guitar for 40 years. I can't even play a song. I could cry."
I saw a heavy, drooping sadness in his eyes as he told me of his frustrations.
To make it worse, he said:
"My wife laughed at me when I tried playing her favorite song"
He felt humiliated and full of shame.
Lee vowed NEVER to let anyone hear him practise ever again.
So night after night he would hide away and practise in near silence.
Over the years, Lee struggled with YouTube, bought countless courses, and spent $8k on private lessons, BUT...
His teacher just spent most of the lesson showing off!
His hands were small, and he suffered from arthritis. His fingers were so sore they looked like they were about to bleed.
And he was jealous of his guitar-playing friends.
You may know this feeling.
...But he had no idea that all this time he was lacking something, which is...
The ONE critical thing almost certainly slowing down your progress
He didn't want any regrets, so he gave the guitar one last try and...
Thankfully, this changed everything for him, like it will for you.
This one strange solution gave him...
More progress in 7 days than in the previous 7 years!
For years, I specialised in teaching those learning guitar later on in life.
And I had a really good method but with Lee, I decided to try something unusual...
It was a new routine inspired by a simple gym workout that helped me lose weight...
...And this simple 4-minute workout contained the key secrets I'd discovered from guitar legends such as Mark Knopfler, Paul Simon, Eric Clapton, and more...
I showed Lee some easy one-finger chords, instantly recognisable riffs, and simple technique-building exercises. Then I told him:
"Don't think. Just do exactly what I do and I guarantee you results"
In moments, Lee was more relaxed.
The burning passion for the guitar was glistening in his eyes, and he grabbed his phone to film me doing the routine.
This meant he knew exactly what to practise each day.
When he came back for his next lesson a week later, I was stunned.
He excitedly told me how a few days later he bit the bullet...
And played his wife's favourite song to her again - Eric Clapton's "Wonderful Tonight".
Lee was nervous she would laugh again, but this time...
She was amazed.
The beautiful melody brought tears to her eyes.
And as this song had been "their song" for 40 years...
Lee said it rekindled a spark in their marriage.
Now fast forward to today...
Lee loves practising, his arthritis is no longer hurting his progress, he feels his brain health is better, and he often jams with his friends.
And they're now jealous of him!
He's even impressed total strangers at his local open-mic night.
...But what's more special is him regaining his self-worth and confidence.
Lee said, "I feel like more of a man again. It's like I've turned the clock back 40 years".
So now, I'll show you...
The "8 Essential Elements" of guitar playing so you too can get these game-changing results...
You might find yourself saying…
“I'm a hopeless beginner. I've lost my motivation. I have no proper practice plan and I feel like I am worse than I was a month ago!
But I have no idea why!”
Well, I’ve discovered that for 95% of guitarists, it's the "Random Practice Effect" that is the real cause of slow progress.
That means it's NOT a lack of ability and it’s NOT your fault.
The truth is most real-life and YouTube teachers struggle to show students exactly what to practise - especially struggling beginners.
This causes the student to struggle for years in an endless cycle.
That's why I've spent the last 2 years formulating and perfecting the "8 Essential Elements".
Best of all, this routine works if you've tried playing for years or if you're brand new to the guitar, so you too can...
Improve faster with the simple tips that made legends such as Clapton and Hendrix so good
This system is now trusted by over 23,434 adult guitarists to play stunning music...
...And rid them of feeling lost on the guitar for good.
Think of the "8 Essential Elements" as a clear roadmap that will ensure you can confidently play beautiful music at the drop of a hat in the next few weeks...
And the "confused" and "unmotivated" feelings will be a distant memory.
Now I'll show you how...
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 is my quick, affordable, and ground-breaking online HD video course.
It 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 a nutshell, this is...
A Done-for-You Beginners' Course
That'll Bring More
Joy to Your Guitar Playing (and Life)...
Almost Overnight
In the past, you've probably tried books, courses, and lessons from other tutors which didn't quite hit the spot.
Some were probably a big fat waste of time and money.
So you're probably wondering...
What makes this different to everything else out there?
Well, did you know 93% of online courses never get completed?
Most YouTube lessons are filled with random tips and advice that just get you running in circles.
That's why I designed this course to be easy to finish.
And with 9/10 students completing the course, you're pretty much guaranteed to get the transformation you've been craving.
But not only that, unlike most courses, this covers the following things most students crave...
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...
Once I saw how my new plan helped Lee, I refined it more and more until I got an exact practice plan.
Yes, it took a LOT of trial and error but once it was finished, I realised it was giving students groundbreaking results.
In fact, new students were now coming to me for lessons and were playing real music right away.
Other students were breaking old habits faster than ever and making more progress in a lesson or two than they had for years.
Now, for the first time, I'm releasing this course to the public, so you too can make real progress on guitar.
Inside the course, you will get the first eight lessons I teach to all beginner students.
These are by far the most important lessons I've ever taught and they will improve your technique and set you up properly for the rest of your guitar-playing days.
During each lesson, I'll take you by the hand in a short but detailed bite-size video.
You can instantly log in, access, and even download all the videos.
This is what's included in these fast, confidence-building beginner lessons...
...You'll also get a precise practice plan, 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.
...And if you feel you are too busy or don't have enough time, this course can work for you because you can...
Make short- and long-term progress in four minutes or less per day
I know you probably don't want to spend hours each day watching lessons.
That's why in each video you will be given actionable, clear, and concise advice so you can see results in less than four minutes.
That's my guarantee with the course.
Simply press PLAY on the video, follow along with me, and then...
Watch as your fingers run up and down the fretboard and see fast improvements to your...
Finger dexterity, chord changes, technique, musicality, and the songs you play.
...All this no matter if you're brand new to the guitar or if you've struggled in the past.
"The lessons are like having one-to-one lessons with Dan where he shows you exactly what to do." - Mike D.
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 the plan will work for you.
In short, the Breakthrough Beginner course is:
WARNING!
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.
...And it's designed to get absolute beginners and frustrated novices playing real music right away.
So, 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.
Just for clarity, I will say this...
The course is currently an online-only course, which you can download or stream
If you want instant results, you'll be pleased to know you can begin immediately.
That's because the course is an HD online course, meaning you can download it or stream it right away.
The great thing about technology is that you will also get this...
You get support, help, and advice any time with your free lifetime access to the Members' Area
Here you will join me and like-minded others.
We will all help you and answer your questions, share breakthroughs, and...
Cheer you on every step of the way.
Having support is proven to help you make faster progress and can help make the learning journey much more enjoyable.
But don't just take my word for it...
Here's what a handful of students have said so far...
"I look forward to picking up my guitar every day!"
I'm a returning student from childhood. You're covering things that other instructors aren't and it's making things fun. I'm growing at a pace that is comfortable for me.
Mary Ann W.
School Teacher
"Fill in the gaping holes in your playing"
You seem to have looked at what other guitar tutors put across, then you cover it all, but you fill in the gaping holes of information that most others just gloss over.

"Exactly what I need to boost my motivation to practice."
Dan has done it again! This is exactly what I, an old fart, need to boost my fingerstyle technique and my motivation to practice.

"I’m turning 50 this summer and suffer from a traumatic brain injury. I love the way Dan makes it so simple to understand. It’s super fun and I absolutely love it.
I don’t even feel like I’m practicing. Yesterday I practiced for almost 2 whole hours and didn’t even realize. This is a must have for anyone starting the guitar journey." - Carlos
So I hope you know you can start to realise your guitar dreams and it can happen starting today.
Just know this...
The possibilities are endless...
Picture this...
You pick up your guitar while relaxing in your garden. You take a sip of a cool drink.
Now you smell the freshly cut grass and listen to the birds chirping above you in the evening sun.
And you confidently strum, fingerpick, and jam music that washes over you like a waterfall...
...All without a care in the world, not minding if your neighbours hear you play...
You even secretly hope they will hear you.
Because you know they'll be in awe of your new musical skills...
Now that the shackles of being a frustrated guitarist are behind you for good.
Life is short, and you live it fully. As you finally feel vibrant, energetic, and youthful with your guitar in hand.

Inside, you will discover how to start with confidence, build good technique, avoid bad habits, get the right gear, and play your first piece of stunning music right away.
This is suitable for both acoustic and electric guitarists. I teach the course using an electro-acoustic but you can use any guitar you like.
Just make sure it's comfortable to play and suits you (I cover this) and then we're ready to go!
No, every note is taught in step-by-step video, which you can slow down and watch as many times as you like.
I do teach how to read TAB in a simple and confidence-building way though, should you wish to learn.
The course is designed for you to use at a pace that suits you.
But if you are super keen, you can complete it and see big results in your playing, in as little as two weeks.
Most students prefer to go at a steady pace and see a long-term transformation. The thing is, if you use the course for even just a few minutes per day, it will change your guitar playing for good.
The course will show you exactly where you have been going wrong with your chords and all your technique.
You'll learn how to play one-finger chords and real music, which doesn't even use chords.
But you'll build solid foundations to play any chord using techniques such as "Minimum Pressure Required" and more.
All in a laid-back and easy-to-follow way.
This is an online course, but you can download or stream it, at any time.
We’re in the digital age and that's super exciting, as it means you can begin the course in seconds.
Simply enter your credit card information on the next page. After that, you’ll get instant access to the course so you can begin right now.
You will pay only once and there are no additional charges or anything like that.
You have LIFETIME access to the course and bonuses. Your membership never expires and you can log in at any time to access it.
What's more, I upload new content regularly, giving you more guitar-playing fun.
I want to reward my students who take fast action. When this goes live, I will charge $29 per month and it will be worth it.
But for the folks lucky enough to be here, the price is a ONE-TIME fee of $37.
It's a fair question. I really want to over-deliver with this course and give you a massive transformation. Hence why you get this for a low price.
But, if it's not for you for any reason, simply email my team, and we will give you a 100% refund instantly.
There will be no questions asked, no fine print, and no B.S.
