Dear Future Guitar Player
If you’ve always wanted to play guitar, or you’ve got one sitting in the corner that you keep meaning to pick up, then I want you to hear this:
You are probably not too old.
You are probably not unmusical.
And you are probably not as rubbish as you think you are.
Eyup! I'm Ricky Comiskey, guitar teacher for over 36 years, founder of Ricky's School of Rock, a 6,000 sq ft music school I ran with 14 tutors for 19 years, and the bloke behind a YouTube channel trusted by over 219,000 guitarists.
In that time I've taught one-to-one lessons, run beginner classes, taught in music colleges, and helped thousands of complete beginners get their first real result on the guitar.
After all that, I can tell you something with a fair degree of confidence:
Most beginners don't quit because they can't learn.
They quit because nobody gave them the right system at the right time.
One lesson tells them to learn ten chords. Another throws music theory at them.
Another starts talking about scales before their fingers can even land on the strings properly.
So they watch more videos on YouTube. They save more lessons they'll never watch.
They tell themselves they’ll start properly next week...And then... the guitar goes back in the corner.
That’s when the dream starts to die.
I’ve watched adults walk into their first lesson and apologise before they’ve even played a note!!
“I’m rubbish, me.”
“I’ve got no rhythm.”
“I’m probably too old for this.”
But then something happens.
They play one note. Then two. Then a simple melody.
Then something recognisable!
And suddenly they look up and think...
“Hang on… I might actually be able to do this.”
That moment is EVERYTHING!
Because your first result gives you a reason to pick the guitar up again tomorrow.
That's why Kickstart isn't designed to fill your head with information. It's designed to get you playing something recognisable as quickly as possible.
Here's what makes it different from every other beginner course out there:
Most beginner courses give you facts. Chords, strumming patterns, scales.
A mountain of information with no architecture to hold it together. You end up with a pile of lessons and no idea what order they go in or why.
Kickstart Guitar is built around a deliberate sequence. Not just what to learn. But why it comes in this order.
Every lesson follows the same system I refined over decades of teaching real beginners in a real classroom, watching exactly where they got stuck, and simplifying the process until they got their first result.
It's the difference between handing someone a box of bricks and giving them a blueprint.
I kept the videos short. Made everything visual. Stripped away the theory overload. And put it together as the clearest, most direct starting point I can give you.
So if you're ready to stop thinking about playing guitar and finally become someone who actually picks it up and does the thing, click the button below and I'll see you inside.
