About this course
This is the level where rhythm playing and lead playing stop being separate subjects. The sixth module of the Intermediate Electric Guitar Course rounds off Grade 4 by teaching you the styles and fretboard knowledge that the best rhythm-lead players — Hendrix, Frusciante, Johnny Marr, The Edge — are all built on, and gives you three jam tracks to prove you can actually do it.
Key Focus Areas:
• Legato Lead Speed: Three cycling licks in the style of Angus Young and Slash.
• Rhythm Meets Lead: Learn to sound like two instruments at once.
• Major Seventh Chords: The wistful, dreamy chord behind The Smiths, The Beatles and Under the Bridge.
• Triads on the Top Three Strings: Why they're one of the highest-return things you can learn.
• Three Jam Tracks: A synth-rock track in the style of The Killers and solo-era Johnny Marr, a Hendrix-style three-chord jam, and a triad workout in the style of The Who.
• Grade 4 Consolidation: The complete checklist of scales, chords, rhythm skills and techniques you need to pass Grade 4, a practice routine built around your weakest areas, and my top song recommendations to lock it all in.

What our students say
I first picked up the guitar just over 6 months ago and have been learning completely through Andy's videos on his app. It's great to have so many practice songs with the chords and strumming patterns broken down.
I have been playing for a couple of years now and felt that the Beginner's course might be too easy, but I decided to do the lessons anyway. I am amazed at how much I learned!
I could never have dreamed that in a short space of time I would actually be playing along with some of my favourite songs, but I am and I'm loving it. It's so much easier to learn chords while having fun learning songs, I'm hooked!
Andy's emphasis on learning to play along to real songs and have fun as quickly as possible taught me to make the most of everything I learnt and gave me the confidence to play in public and even to start writing and recording my own songs!
The website with the dashboard facility is brilliant! It has allowed me to keep a close tab on my lessons and practice plans. Keep up the excellent work Andy and team!
When my grandchildren ask me about what I did during the pandemic, I'm going to tell them about how I got stuck at my parents' house learning something I always wanted... music. I can't thank Andy enough!
