I have been seeing Nick's courses around and watching his YouTube channel for a while so I finally decided to take the plunge and try one. Man am I glad I did!

Would give it more stars if I could!

This is an excellent guitar course, With a great breakdown of some of the best 80’s guitarists! I really appreciate Nicks style of teaching.
Awesome! Mike Socarras
Hot smokin’ licks all packed up into one course that will really get your fingers in shape.
The licks will take your legato to the next level. What I like most is that they are tasty modal licks.
