If you’re looking for a last-minute Father’s Day gift and are all out of ideas, then Guitar Tricks have an awesome offer that will be music to your dad’s ears come July 16 – that’s because they’ve knocked the price of their annual subscription down from $179 to $99 – that's just $8.25 per month and Guitar Tricks' lowest-ever membership price.
And as if that wasn't enough, Guitar Tricks have also included a guitar setup guide and 4 other free gifts – including songwriting tools and backing tracks – so he can get everything in place before the shredding begins.
Our friends over at Guitar World gave the service 4.5-stars in their Guitar Tricks review, saying their range of courses “strike the right balance between detailed and concise” and with more than 11,000 video lessons available to dive into, there’s plenty of content to keep you or your dad’s fingers on the fretboard.
Guitar Tricks have five core learning systems covering fundamentals, acoustic, blues, rock and country, while their massive song lesson library is crammed full of rock, metal, blues and more.
Guitar Tricks say: “Rock guitar music started as the sound of youth and energy. It was born from a young generation of musicians and performers during the 1960’s who grew up listening to blues, country, jazz and rock’n’roll from the 1940’s and 50’s. From all those influences they made something entirely new which captured the imagination of every following generation; Rock music.
“Metal style guitar is huge, powerful and all encompassing. The tones and sounds can be a bit intimidating to try to tackle on your own. We will outline for you a variety of ways to achieve Metal guitar mastery.
“Through these lessons you’ll learn how to dial in metal guitar tones, alternate picking techniques, shredding licks and a few artist studies so you can be sure you sound like the real deal.”
Away from the main lessons, there's access to artist studies, while there are 44 different instructors who will lead you through the lessons.
Personal progress is tracked on Guitar Tricks so you won’t get lost and if you’re looking for some inspiration, the website has a forum for players – and you can even send the Guitar Tricks team a video to get their feedback.
