Guitar Styles with Guthrie Trapp

About this course

Guthrie Trapp has distilled decades of professional experience into a comprehensive guitar school that covers far more than one style. With over 300 video lessons, Guthrie teaches players of all levels how to build a solid foundation, connect musical ideas across the fretboard, and develop their own expressive voice. Students explore a wide range of sounds and styles from blues, funk, and R&B to country, reggae, and rock — through a progressive curriculum that includes topics like chord construction, the CAGED system, triads, arpeggios, scales, phrasing, and musical embellishment. Each concept builds upon the next, giving you the practical skills to play fluidly, improvise and phrase solos tastefully, and make music with confidence. Lessons are supported by backing tracks, tablature, and exclusive performances offered in multiple camera angles. You’ll also join a global community of players who share your passion for guitar and musical growth. What makes these guitar lessons truly unique is that this is the only place online preserving the teaching feedback of Guthrie Trapp through the library of videos submitted by students using the ArtistWorks Video Exchange Learning® platform. Guthrie reviewed each submission and recorded a video response, offering specific guidance to the student to take their guitar playing to the next level. All students can access the Video Exchange library and watch these interactions with Guthrie. This library is comprehensive and may contain the key to unlock your playing.
