Essential vocabulary and techniques for blues, rock, jazz, country and acoustic guitar is presented across five new 50 LICKS courses, authored by top TrueFire educators and artists; Chris Buono, Joe Dalton, Rich Maloof, Jeff McErlain and Frank Vignola. Each expert instructor, in their respective style, presents 50 "must know" licks in a musical context to demonstrate application, followed by a note-by-note breakdown with insight on technique and feel.

TrueFire's Guitar Lab learning systems employ a hands-on, contextual approach where students play their way through the curriculum, rather than struggle through tedious theory and exercises.

As with all TrueFire courses, every Guitar Lab course features learning tools such as picture-in-a-picture video, practice rhythm tracks, standard notation, tab, text guides and interactive Power Tab so that students can see, hear and play along with the tab and notation, at any tempo, without changing pitch.
