About TrueFire’s Song Learning System

Taught by our top educators, TrueFire’s Song Lesson System is a hands-on contextual music-making experience designed to accelerate the song learning process and simulate a full-band setting.

Whatever level of player you happen to be, from beginner to advanced, there’s a rhythm or lead guitar part you can learn to play that sounds great in a full band context.

We designed the system with three distinct educational objectives in mind; 1) Teach accurate rhythm and lead guitar parts; 2) Prepare students for live performance settings; and 3) Emphasize key learnings from each song to advance students’ overall skills.

Meeting these three objectives called for a strict criteria when selecting the songs that we would teach. Whether they were classic or contemporary songs within a genre, they each had to offer key rhythmic, harmonic, and/or melodic techniques that students’ could apply anywhere.

We also had to take full advantage of our learning tools to craft a learning experience that not only met the criteria but also made the learning experience fun and gratifying.

Fantastic corse!

There are a few videos out there on the internet with many thousands of views. What they all have in common is that they don’t compare to the original when you listen carefully. THIS instruction, however, is spot on and is helping this relative beginner learn what’s been extremely difficult up until now. I highly recommend this instructional course.

Great addition!

These song courses are terrific! I had rejected a request from a fellow player to learn this song together until I found this lesson on Truefire. It has detailed instruction and terrific practice elements. Thanks!
