ABOUT

I'M LEE

My dream for Play Guitar Academy, since 2018, has been to bring hope to frustrated guitarists who learn online.

Online guitar instruction is heading in the wrong direction and leaving most new players confused and massively overwhelmed.

It doesn't have to be this way and I'm putting my money where my mouth is!

MY STORY

I've been a professional guitarist and guitar teacher for over 35 years.

I'm a graduate of the University of the Arts in Philadelphia with a bachelor's degree in Jazz Guitar Performance with a Computer Composition emphasis.

I have taught thousands of individual and group guitar classes all over the eastern United States and was the owner of Lee's Lessons in Forsyth, GA.

In 2018, I started the Play Guitar Podcast and the following year I became the owner and CEO of Play Guitar Academy.

"He's the real deal. He is truly passionate about seeing you succeed!"

"I have improved more over the past year following Lee's roadmap than I had in the previous 5 years!"

LET'S GET STARTED

"If you've been trying to get better at the guitar by going it alone, you know that it can feel like you're spinning your wheels with no results.

Learning something this challenging by picking random videos to learn from (the A La Carte method) will keep you frustrated, confused, and stuck.

I know this because I help thousands of frustrated players, just like you, every week on my podcast.

You aren't alone and there isn't anything wrong with you. The way we are learning guitar today is broken.

Learning guitar is like building a house, if the foundation (your basic skills) is missing something, the whole rest of the house will fall.

All of my courses are designed to help frustrated guitarists start filling in their missing skills and start achieving goals from day 1.

Take a look at my course page to see which skills you need the most work on and jump on board.

The sooner you do, the sooner you will leave this frustration behind and get back to getting better at the guitar.

Let's get started today!

-Lee Anderson"
