Editor's intro

Guitar is one of the most self-taught instruments in the world, and the free resources for it are extraordinary. The risk isn't a lack of material; it's bouncing between random YouTube videos without ever building solid fundamentals. This feed gives you one structured course to anchor your progress, plus song libraries, theory, and inspiration for when you need it.

Pick one structured course and follow its order, even when it feels slow — clean chord changes and steady rhythm matter more than flashy licks. Learn songs you love alongside it, because that's what keeps you picking the guitar up. The intermediate section helps you understand the fretboard; the advanced picks are about musicianship, not just technique.

JustinGuitar Beginner Course

JustinGuitar Video course Free App optional

JustinGuitar's beginner course is the best free guitar course we know of, and many teachers quietly recommend it too. Justin Sandercoe organizes lessons into grades, each introducing a few chords or skills with practice routines and songs to apply them. He focuses heavily on the unglamorous basics — finger placement, chord changes, rhythm — that decide whether you'll still be playing a year from now. The website and videos are free; the optional app adds play-along practice. Follow it in order and don't skip the practice routines.
