-Tom Phillips

"One of the best decisions I’ve made in my guitar journey is joining the “Learn Guitar With Andy” community! He breaks the blues & techniques down into easily digestible pieces that allows me to focus on the things I need to improve my playing. Since joining the community I can now play the 12-bar blues which I absolutely couldn’t do before and my playing overall has improved significantly. Andy is definitely a stickler for the finer details of guitar playing, but he’s also incredibly patient and meets you at right at the level where you’re at. I’m having so much fun learning the blues with him."

-Mathew DeWitt

Joining Andy’s guitar community has been a total game-changer. His laid-back teaching style and short-form video lessons complete with music and tab sheets make learning feel fun and easy, not overwhelming. He hosts monthly Zoom meetups which are the icing on the cake. Welcoming, encouraging, and perfect for players of all levels. My guitar playing has improved significantly as a result!

The Guitar Community Includes:

Breaking Down The Blues Course

Build a rock-solid foundation in blues rhythm and lead, even if you're just getting started.

This course is perfect for beginner and intermediate guitarists who want to play authentic blues, hold down that steady shuffle, and add tasteful lead phrases. Inspired by legends like John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters, Freddie King, Lightnin’ Hopkins, and Jimmy Reed.

In this course, you'll learn how to:

🎸 Play steady blues shuffle rhythm and layer in expressive lead lines

🎸 Learn the foundational 12-bar blues structure to jam over

🎸 Apply rhythm and blues scales into your phrasing

🎸 Add expressive techniques like slides, hammer-ons, and pull-offs

🎸 Develop muscle memory with focused drills, exercises, and arrangements

🎸Perform specialized arrangements that build upon concepts from course

Music Thoery 101: For Guitar Players

This theory course is designed for guitar players who want to understand music theory from the ground up. Whether you’re completely new to theory or want to strengthen your foundation, this course will guide you through the essential concepts in a clear, step-by-step way.

You’ll start with the basics of notes and gradually build toward more advanced topics like creating chords, understanding harmony, and seeing why certain chords work well together.

Unlike a traditional theory course, everything is taught through the lens of the guitar. You’ll use visuals to connect theory directly to the fretboard so you can see how everything fits together.

By the end of the course, you’ll have the knowledge to better understand songs, apply theory to your playing, and begin using these concepts to create your own music.

The course includes more than 40 interactive videos, and if you have questions along the way, you can leave comments under the lessons and I’ll help clear things up.

Monthly Live Zoom Meetings

Join a supportive, interactive space to learn, ask questions, and get feedback live.

Each month, I host a live Zoom session focused on a specific guitar topic.

Here’s what you can expect:

✅ A focused topic or skill every month
✅ A chance to ask questions or get live feedback on your playing
✅ The option to sit back, observe, and absorb
✅ Recordings available if you can’t make it live

Whether you're looking for real-time feedback or just want to feel part of a community of players growing together, these sessions are a great way to stay inspired and keep learning.

Video Submissions

Is there a lick, solo, or rhythm part you’ve been trying to nail down? Maybe you’re working through one of my Instagram, TikTok or YouTube lessons, tackling a tough section in the blues course, or just exploring your own ideas.

Inside the community, you now have access to personalized video feedback. Here’s how it works:

You send me a quick video of something you’re working on. Anything from a short phrase to a full performance. I’ll reply with a detailed video response, breaking down your playing, highlighting strengths, and giving clear, practical advice on what to focus on next.

We can go back and forth as many times as needed. Whether we’re fine-tuning a technique or building a plan to help you grow, I’m here to support your progress directly.

This is an affordable, flexible alternative to traditional private lessons. Perfect for players who want expert feedback but have limited time. You can submit a video whenever it works for you, and I’ll respond within 2 weeks (usually much shorter). No pressure. No scheduling headaches.

A Shared Community

Being part of this space means more than just working through a course on your own. With a dedicated message board, you can connect with other guitarists, share videos, ask questions, and even suggest new material. Everyone’s on their own path with the instrument, but by learning together, the process becomes more engaging, motivating, and fun. Between the structured courses, live Zoom sessions, and community discussions, you’ll have the support and inspiration to keep progressing and stay accountable along the way.

The Scales Behind The Licks Digital Book With Videos

If you joined my mailing list, you should’ve received a free digital book that walks you through connecting lead lines using the blues scale. I’ve shared video demonstrations of every lick from the book across my social media, but inside the community, members get access to all of them in a clean, organized course format. No scrolling or searching needed, just clear, easy-to-follow lessons all in one place.

Blues Turnaround Compilation

This is a compilation of blues turnaround demonstrations I have posted on social media over the years. A turnaround occurs in the last 4 bars of a 12-bar blues chord progression. They bring you back to the beginning of the chord progression. Some of the coolest musical ideas in the blues come from turnarounds. You can learn more about blues turnarounds in my "Breaking Down The Blues" course.
