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 35+ 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...
...He sat there, straining and trying his best to fingerpick a version of "Unchained Melody".
Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
...And his fingers looked so sore it seemed like they were about to bleed.
Yet the music was stilted, awkward, and in his words, "barely sounds anything like the song".
He told me when he picked up the guitar at home, the dog would run away and he even felt like smashing his guitar up on some occasions!
This was 47-year-old Mike during his first lesson with me.
I could totally understand his pain. You may have felt this way too on numerous occasions.
For about a year, Mike tried learning from YouTube videos and Google, but nothing worked.
All Mike wanted to do was play his favourite songs but deep down he knew...
Fingerpicking should be relaxing and enjoyable, NOT a physical workout where your fingers are left feeling sore!
The truth is, most guitarists are like Mike.
If like Mike you practice super quietly at home secretly hoping your husband or wife doesn't hear you, you will know how this feels.
There were four big factors that were holding Mike back and they are probably holding you back too.
Two of these factors are "Technique" and having a "Specific plan".
By the end of his first lesson, I got Mike comfortable with a few ideas that made a difference to his technique.
I also gave him a specific plan on how to practice to get the most from his playing in just 20 minutes per day.
Over the next few weeks, and with lots of hard work, Mike started to see little breakthroughs.
Each breakthrough helped him get past all of his most frustrating hurdles, little by little.
Mike could see, hear, and feel progress.
He was now making real music.
After months of proper practice and feeling revitalized and excited to play each day, Mike's story had an amazing ending.
The special moment came when he learnt how to play a fingerpicking version of Ed Sheeran's song called "Perfect", which is his and his wife's most treasured song.
He no longer feels sick at the thought of playing in front of someone else.
Instead, he performed it in front of her for their wedding anniversary.
It brought tears to her eyes.
That moment was one they will both cherish forever.
These days Mike plays his favourite songs with confidence and with a big smile.
He even has the confidence to jam with his kids.
...And the dog no longer runs away when he starts to play.
The solution for your fingerpicking success is to have an easy-to-follow AND simple step-by-step plan
We got Mike to where he wanted to be using a simple plan with just 20 minutes of proper practice each day...
This plan is what I want to show you and you can get it in a straightforward and easy-to-follow course.
This course is the culmination of 1000s of hours of teaching guitar to people just like yourself.
Imagine being like Mike and making improvements each day...
So that in a year you can play with great technique and confidence and be able to play the songs you love.
Well, now you can...
Introducing Fingerstyle 101 (the brand new and massively updated 2nd edition)
Fingerstyle 101 (2nd edition) is an easy-to-follow course all laid out for you in a simple to follow way.
It has been totally re-filmed, refined, and is now ready for you so you can become the fingerpicking guitarist YOU want to be.
Here are just some of the things you will learn in the course:
Fingerstyle 101 takes you every step of the way from being a frustrated/stuck/beginner guitarist to being a confident, skilful, and happy fingerpicker!
Simply click the link below to purchase.
Remember, if you are an adult, have slogged away for ages, and YET you still find fingerpicking hard, you will find this course a breath of fresh air.
Everything in the course is organised in order of difficulty in 3 parts from the absolute basics up ...making the journey for you more fun!
- 1Part I - Learn the fundamentals of fingerpicking - learn how to play with great technique, be comfortable with the absolute basics, fix the most common fingerpicking mistakes, and have the tools needed to get a rock-solid foundation to fingerpick to a high standard.
- 2Part II - Discover the 10 most exciting, fun, and beautiful fingerpicking patterns - all taught with fun examples and all starting off in a super simple way and then getting progressively harder. This will allow you to play beautiful music at your current skill level and develop as you go through the course.
- 3Part III - How to develop as a fingerpicking guitarist consistently - even when you have finished the course. This includes how to learn faster, improve your memory, enjoy your practice sessions more, and possibly even keep your brain age younger! Learn all of this in a fingerpicking context.
Fingerstyle 101 is specifically written for adults, 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 course, 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 learning later on in life. 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 with hopping around or using random YouTube videos where the instructor loses you along the way, then this course 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 course 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 course 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.

This is what others think of the new edition of the Fingerstyle 101 video course...
A couple of weeks ago, I posted the course 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 course 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. course. 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.
I have used several of Dan’s courses. 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 course is probably not for you.
If you want to play like Paul Simon, Eric Clapton, Ed Sheeran, Tommy Emmanuel or James Taylor in an hour, let me tell you, that ain't gonna happen.
The course 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.
Just like it is for Lynn who emailed me the other day and said:
"Hi Dan, I just want to say, so far so good with the course. I love how it assumes you are an absolute newbie to fingerstyle.
This is exactly what I need and my progress has been great so far. Thanks for all the tips, it really helps." 🙂
