Just show up and start today’s guitar challenge. No decisions required.
After years of just dabbling in guitar, I started a long journey of discovering how to make learning guitar fun & sustainable.
After teaching guitar for over 18 years, what I’ve found is that the traditional way to learn guitar is overcomplicated and promotes “mastery” and “practice” over sustainability and enjoyment.
I wanted to fix that by creating a fun and intuitive way to learn guitar that can be followed by busy people.
Most of my 35,000+ online guitar students are older adults who’ve been able to start playing fun things in days, not months or years. How? By adopting the intuitive, music-first approach to learning that our program provides.
Tony’s Acoustic Challenge keeps guitar students coming back day after day because they’re having fun and seeing real progress.

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!

I have been a TAC member for about 6 months. I played when I was a kid and got stuck. For years! I did not like the idea of going back to lessons but was ready to resume my guitar journey.
I like the idea of playing daily, but there are some weeks when I am traveling or work is just too crazy. It doesn't matter; I just pick up wherever the daily challenge is and try to jump back in. I love the format.
The flexibility is right up my alley, but there is a solid structure which has been really helpful in helping me develop skills I never thought I could or would, such as becoming comfortable using a pick or learning enough theory to help me understand my guitar better.

I recommend everything about TAC.
I have learned more in one week with Tony's program than I have in the past two years.
He breaks everything down into bite-size bits. I had an aha moment on 3rd day and was able to do all the warm-ups and start on some of the chords, strumming, and soon enough be playing music to my ears.
You're never too old to start playing either. I am a Great-Grandma and just started up again and I am playing for my family for Thanks Giving, Christmas and New Year party :). Lets get jiggy with it 🤣

Before trying the Daily Challenge, your mission is to learn (or re-learn) the basics while slowly building up to a consistent playing habit. That’s what the 30-day guitar challenge was designed for and it works!
Each week will consist of two things…
A collection of small courses you can complete in a weekend that cover essential guitar skills.
To keep things exciting and fresh, TAC features a 5-day challenge every five or six weeks in place of the regular TAC Daily Challenge format.
These are also available on-demand so you can revisit or try any of the 5-Day Challenges at any time.
The blues themes are the most popular (because they’re fun and fairly “easy”.) For something more challenging (but very helpful for your playing), try the Barre Chord, Pinky, or Pull Off challenges.
My progress was non-existent until I got a guitar routine.
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 love the TAC program.
I've been taking private lessons and while the instructor feedback is useful, it has limitations. I can only learn as fast as what I get in a half-hour lesson once a week.
I’ve also subscribed to several other online guitar courses, and they lack a clear path to learn music theory and integrate it with learning and playing in a fun way.
I love Tony’s clear and straightforward approach to teaching by explaining concepts in a simple way.
Providing written materials and having practice sessions and play along opportunities to reinforce what is taught has skyrocketed my learning.
I learn about five times as much per week as I do from a once-a-week guitar lesson.
I also love the TAC community. I’m a part of a culture who is traveling on the same journey. It’s nice to know others share the same passion and have the same struggles and wins as I do.
Keep up the good work Tony. Can’t wait for the new Fret Board Wizard course. Knowing what you’ve put together so far, I think it will be the bomb.

College level guitar courses cost between $1200 and $6000 plus 12 to 60 weeks of your time. In-person lessons cost at least $1200 per year. And with both you STILL have to learn songs after you learn guitar.
TAC skips the extra noise and takes you straight to the goal by learning guitar through playing music. All at a tiny fraction of the price.
