    I did this deal last December. It's good value but no way would I pay $270+ for it.

    I did this deal last December. Wouldn't know if its good value as I haven't used it …

    Can you cancel after sign up to avoid renew at usual price

    • Scrooge McDeal on 26/08/2023 - 12:03

      You may cancel at any point in time before you're billed annually.

      Thanks for the tip.

      Edit: I paid $16.49 last November and it's a discounted recurring payment. That's why I didn't cancel straight away.

          I can't remember to be honest. I recall doing it via a cashrewards offer and there was a glitch that offered further discount and obviously perpetual pricing. Sorry I can't help further.

    Hows this compared to Udemy and the like?

  • Danneo on 26/08/2023 - 12:27

    Does this teach theory at all? And strumming patterns etc

    • dbmitch on 26/08/2023 - 12:38

      You make me remember my high school art class, We thought we were learning how to paint, but it was more like "Follow these steps to create this exact picture shown"

      If this Fender class is just a play along with me thing…

      "• Step-by-step lessons • Popular songs made easy"

      Sigh

    • ilove on 26/08/2023 - 12:40

      it does

    • [Deactivated] on 26/08/2023 - 12:46

      It doesn't teach music theory as that's quite a rabbit hole which never ends. It teaches you how to play but not what you're playing. It's in tab form so doesn't even cover how to read sheet music.
      This is great if you want to jump onto YouTube and play a song. But down the track you'll realise you don't REALLY know how to play guitar at all.

      For music theory you'd need a teacher or books from say Hal Leonard.
      This is where you go from "I know how to play guitar!" To pro level.. Harmonising chords, common chord progression, circle of 5ths, pentatonic scales, transposing chords into different keys, Phrygian, Dorian, Mixolydian, Aeolian, Lydian etc etc etc.

      Down the track with music theory you'll speed up learning by years when you have a full understanding of chords and you'll not only be able to play covers but create your own music and embellish existing songs to make them your own.

        Ok so are you recommending one should learn music theory first?

        • MS Paint on 26/08/2023 - 14:22
          +1

          Technically you should but it's boring and you will lose interest. Learn it alongside playing basic songs for a much better experience.

          • furiousgeorge on 26/08/2023 - 14:54

            @MS Paint: Yeh it’s mega boring. Learn a few simple chords on the acoustic then get on the electric guitar , crank the overdrive and punch out some sweet metal riffs.

        • [Deactivated] on 26/08/2023 - 14:51

          You'd do about a 60/40 ratio. Music theory can become extremely boring, complex etc. You need to be able to pick up a guitar and play your favourite song each night as that's the reward early on.

          I'd set a goal and try and learn 6 songs between now and the end of the year. Songs you enjoy. Find the sheet music for it and learn them.

  • TheCunningLinguist on 26/08/2023 - 12:31

    Is there something similar or effective for learning drums?

    • AaronR on 26/08/2023 - 13:25

      Clone Hero lets you use a midi kit, and a lot of songs are accurate enough to get you started.

      I learnt drums during lockdown with Melodics. Highly recommended.

    Good deal at this price. Recommended for beginners and intermediates. Easy to follow basics and unlike some other sites, covers bass and ukulele as well as the usual guitar.

            @Commodore64: Doesn't it require turkey payment card?
            I tried India VPN, it required Indians payment card

  • kaleidoscope on 26/08/2023 - 12:52

    How does this compare to the many other learn to play guitar apps available on appstores? Ofcourse it's mostly about practice and practice, but I'd like to know some theory as well at appropriate doses instead of just play along style courses…

    • [Deactivated] on 26/08/2023 - 13:06

      Try to do a 60% music theory to 40% playing.
      Progressive guitar method book 1, 2 and Guitar chords will get you there faster than Fender play.
      You'll be 10x more advanced than even level 4 of fender play which would take you weeks.
      Hal Leonard has awesome books too.

      I use Hal Leonard books, Progressive guitar books, fender play and Gibson app and have guitar lessons with someone who has a B-mus.

      • kaleidoscope on 26/08/2023 - 13:23

        Perfect thanks for sharing!. I also have been taking lessons with someone for couple of years. I feel like I'm at that stage where I need bit more theory side on how things all tie together and bit of composing etc…

        • [Deactivated] on 26/08/2023 - 14:03
          +4

          This is what I was trying to explain above. Anyone can learn 4 chords and play over 300 songs but it doesn't teach you What you're playing and how chords go together and harmonise and the theory behind it.

          Without this you become quite limited and won't be able to improvise or compose.

          Try to find a teacher who specialises in improvisation as they'll have a sound understanding of Music theory and can compose etc. They'll teach you everything and make you lead guitar worthy.

  • Isho on 26/08/2023 - 13:42

    Thanks OP, I subscribed.

    Not looking to get any advanced musical theory out of this app, nor am I planning on becoming an expert guitarist. Just hoping that I can learn to pick up the guitar, play all the major chords and be able to look up any song I wanna play and follow through with it. Hopefully the progression based program will keep me motivated and not give up!

    • DJM on 26/08/2023 - 16:01

      I found that in the early Fender lessons songs were oversimplified and didn’t sound like originals. Justin Guitar offers great beginner lessons, beginner theory as well, for free. He has paid advance theory lessons too, but once you get the basic theory down, there are lots of free sites that help you apply it effectively.
      Check out Stitch Method Guitar for more advanced applications of pentatonics, chord tones, arpeggios, melody’s, circle of fifths, etc etc. All free but you can access his paid patreon lessons too.

  • tora0515 on 26/08/2023 - 14:42

    I used rocksmith to learn guitar. It's real fun and you can download songs from mods.

  • Kavoth on 26/08/2023 - 15:42

    Can anyone recommend a beginners guitar?
    Budget under $400.

    Always been keen to try learning in my newly built garage man cave.

  • KelpRunner on 26/08/2023 - 17:08

    Just subbed with the promo code. Song choices are very limited so that's quite disappointing..

  • qvntmflx on 26/08/2023 - 17:22

    I just recently discovered Rock Smith 2014 Remastered and am enjoying it tremendously. Might not be the "proper" way to learn, but if you feel like you're stuck, I'd recommend giving it a go.

    • Munkeyalan on 26/08/2023 - 23:50

      I've been learning bass on Rocksmith. It pretty much just teaches you to memorise songs but that's all I have time for these days. Plus, it's damn fun.

  • my2cnts on 26/08/2023 - 18:10

    have been considering it but does it have anything that couldn't be found on youtube?

  • ilikecheapcrap on 26/08/2023 - 19:06

    Mine came up as $26.39, living the ozb dream!

  • Aerith-Waifu on 26/08/2023 - 19:12

    Has anyone successfully able to play medium level difficulty songs with this? I been following Justin G but after the initial lessons I just can't follow it anymore without someone explain what the hell is happening…..

    • Buy2Much on 27/08/2023 - 11:45

      I have. I did 1/4 the basic stuff then got impatient and went straight for the medium and advanced level songs that I liked. I did have music lessons on other (non-string) instruments when I was a kid though. For me the instructions in Fender are easier to comprehend than Justin G. YMMV.

  • steveray9a on 30/08/2023 - 12:17

    Hi, I can only see 2 plans, monthly and annually, no option for "without the acoustic guitar"

    Can someone tell me if they have changed the offer?
