Master the Guitar

The real guitar masters don't stop once they've learnt to play a style or a song. Take it to the next level by creating your own music, teaching other students and performing in public in a band or as a soloist.

Mastering an instrument is a journey. We're here to make sure you get to the top smiling.

I'm Ben Plant, professional guitarist and teacher at Pathfinder Guitar. I'm a touring musician who's taught hundreds of guitar students (of all ages and skill levels) almost everything I've learnt over the past two decades about playing the guitar. 

But what really matters is what our team of guitar masters and I can do for you! Our specialist guitar courses are designed to help you reach and exceed your guitar goals. 

Want to play in front of 1000 people? I've done it, and we can show you how to get there. Want to become a teacher yourself? Awesome! We'll help you develop your own career as a professional musician. Maybe you're more interested in learning a few chords to play for your kids (or lucky significant other)? We can teach you to become a strumming serenading extraordinaire. 

No matter your musical challenges, you can become the guitarist you've always wanted to be.

1. Teach yourself

Have you tried to follow along with Youtube lessons? Have you tried to download free tabs off the internet? Maybe you've even bought a few beginner books to get started?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, you've tried guitar lessons the hard way.

This is the way many people first try to learn the guitar, and quite frankly, it becomes overwhelming for most beginner students. It leads to frustration, a sense of being overwhelmed and - most importantly - slow, limited results.

2. Learn from a casual guitar teacher

Ever had a guitar lesson with a teacher? How did you find it? Trick question - I know because you're here that you didn't get the results you were after.

So why do so many guitar students find their typical guitar lessons don't work?

Simple - you can't expect guitar mastery to come out of a poorly organised, unstructured 30 minute lesson every other week. But there is a better way.

3. Learn from a team of teachers with structured courses built for YOU

Save yourself the time and effort - learn in a community with teachers who will get you results, fast. 

By far the easiest, fastest path to total guitar mastery is through a customised, expert guitar course. Don't settle for a boring guitar class each week. Don't settle for a bunch of videos.

Only settle for guitar lessons that get you to where you want to be as a player. 

When you begin your journey with us, you'll not only make rapid progress, but you'll also meet a lot of other great guitarists and have a lot of fun along the way! For anyone serious about guitar lessons, Option 3 is the only way to go.
