People *really* like Tony's Acoustic Challenge.

As a beginner I really appreciate the well thought out method of teaching and the built-in emotional support. It all combines to make this experience delightfully challenging.

I’m amazed at what I can already do. Brought out my guitar when one of my adult children was over. I played a couple things and his jaw dropped.

It enables you to realize what a guitar player really is. It is much more than endless chord transitions without a path to colorful and imaginative music. It is fun.

"I have played my guitar 298 days since I started the TAC in November of 2022!"

I have to say, Tony has incorporated a number of psychological learning principles in his method...principles that motivate and reward playing the guitar.

I took one-on-one lessons for a year just before Covid shut things down, and I had a LOT of trouble getting myself to practice daily. So I would go to my lesson poorly prepared, and feeling bad that I let myself (and my instructor) down every time. EVERY time.

With Tony's approach, I have played my guitar 298 days since I started the TAC program in November of 2022! And I have learned so much!

"You can tell there are years of experience and thought put into this program to make it the most effective way for folks to learn guitar.

Tony has a great teaching style and is very motivating and reassuring. He is well aware of the difficulty and psychology behind where most guitarists get lost in the process and he has strategies and a teaching method that addresses these issues and gives you the best chance for success.

This Is What Changes When You Have a Real Guitar System...

  • Spend your time playing music not grinding exercises.
  • Make faster progress by focusing on the 5 core skills real songs are built on.
  • Quiet the self-doubt as progress becomes predictable.
  • Play consistently because you always know what to do next.

"I have been playing guitar on and off for 30 years and Tony's Acoustic Challenge works for me."

This is an awesome guitar program!

I never had any formal guitar training. I was self-taught and I had major holes in my guitar skill set that TAC is filling. I am definitely happy with the results I have seen in my 3 years of being a member.

If you commit to putting in the time this will make a big difference in your playing. I would and do recommend this to any and every one interested in learning guitar or if you're like me needing to take it to the next level.

"I realized music is gone from my life and I don't like it."

"I wanted to play with my husband who started learning guitar in his 60s"

"I learn about five times as much per week as I do from a once-a-week guitar lesson."

"I started playing in my 20s then for 30 years nothing happened."
