Step-By-Step Guitar Courses
Over 100,000 guitarists have transformed their guitar abilities with Paul Davids courses
Which Paul Davids Course is Right For Me?
Anyone can get really good at guitar.
You don’t need to be talented, have the right kind of hands, or practice for hours each day…
All you need is to follow the right step-by-step roadmap to build your guitar skill set and actually make consistent progress.
That’s why I’ve created five different online guitar courses, for guitarists at different stages along the journey.
To find out which one is a fit for you, use the course wizard:

7-Level Roadmap | Beginner | Acoustic or Electric
Learn, Practice, Play
Learn, Practice, Play is a comprehensive ‘natural learning’ guitar system based on how people actually learn to play.
It uses the 4-step learning framework I created during my 11 years of teaching private 1-1 lessons…
A system that allows you to make massive, consistent improvement as a guitarist in as little as 15 minutes per day of practice – while having tons of fun and playing real music every step of the way.
So, if you are:
- A beginner guitarist who wants a proven pathway to get started…
- Or you’ve been playing for a while but not making much progress…
- Or if you’re an intermediate player who wants a refresh on the fundamentals, so you can take your technique to the next level…
Learn, Practice, Play will be the perfect course for you.
7-Level Roadmap | Intermediate | Electric or Acoustic
Next Level Playing
If you’re more of an intermediate player and feeling a bit stuck – or you’ve been playing for a long time without making any progress – check out Next Level Playing.
Next Level Playing is my course for intermediate guitarists designed to help you break through to a new level of freedom and confidence in your playing…
… And become a well-rounded guitarist who doesn’t just play songs, but can create your own music, express yourself fluidly, and jam with other musicians.
I’ve created this as the sequel to Learn, Practice, Play so it’ll be a perfect fit for you if you’ve been through that course already, to continue to build your skill set step by step. But if you haven’t taken Learn, Practice, Play, you’re still welcome to join. As long as you can play most basic chords and barre chords, and at least some scales, you’ll be able to jump right in!
Explore Acoustic Styles & Techniques | Intermediate | Acoustic
Acoustic Adventure
If you want to bring out the full richness of your acoustic guitar sound with the most essential acoustic styles and techniques of all time, Acoustic Adventure will be the perfect next step for you.
Inside Acoustic Adventure, you’ll forge your own path and explore techniques like fingerpicking, palm muting, voicing, percussive slaps, muted strums, and more.
You’ll get a better understanding of the musical “roots” of modern songs, and learn how to bring out the best in your acoustic playing.
If you’re ready to spice up your acoustic playing, this course will be a perfect fit!
Explore Electric Styles & Techniques | Intermediate | Electric
Electric Elevation
If you’re an intermediate electric guitar player, and you’re ready to start playing by “ear” and by “feel,” – and if you want to have a blast exploring different techniques with your electric guitar – you will love Electric Elevation.
You’ll learn how to bring together technical and musical elements to set a mood and express yourself more freely through your guitar – and you’ll learn how to craft your own solos and discover more musical freedom than ever before.
It’s one of the most fun courses I’ve ever created. If you’re an intermediate player looking to have a blast and choose your own adventure on the electric guitar, this is the course for you!
Explore Guitar Looping | Intermediate | Electric or Acoustic
Loop School
Finally, for something completely different: if you want to discover the creative possibilities of looping with your guitar, check out Loop School.
You can go through this course with an acoustic or electric guitar and just a basic setup – no fancy gear required!
Inside, you’ll learn how to master the pedal and create sweet loops with endless possibilities.
We’ll cover how to establish good timing, build layers that fit together perfectly, add percussive elements, and create a mesmerizing arc so you can sound like your own band.
