Stringkick has totally changed my approach to guitar. My playing and musical awareness have changed massively. It annoys me that this isn't the standard way to learn! I wish I came across it earlier.

Meet Your Instructor

Hi, My name is Just!

I’m the guy behind StringKick. I’ve been playing music for close to two decades, and have taught hundreds of students over the past 15 years. StringKick is where I share everything I’ve picked up along the way about learning music and how the musical mind works.

I've written in-depth articles on topics ranging from strumming and barre chords to playing guitar by ear and improvising. I've also created interactive courses that help you put in laser-focused practice to grow your guitar skills and develop your musicality.

What I love most about this site is that it's developing my confidence in just playing. It feels like a bootcamp prepping me for putting myself out there and playing with others.
