you the knowledge that you need to analysis the physiology of your playing but more importantly gives you actual techniques that you can use to fix these problems. Some are so simple you will be laughing! But they work and there is 40 years of
experience proving that they work so there is no guess work here. Just the stuff that has fixed countless guitar players that have come to me with problems or beginning guitarist that improve at a remarkable rate because they started with good
technique.

Don’t think of “Guitar Technique and Physiology” as a hard course. Many of the techniques to fix your problems are incredibly simple you just need to compare what I’m doing on the guitar to what you are doing and fix those issues that are not correct.

years old. Remember as you get older your body becomes less flexible and it’s harder for it to heal from injury. That is why developing the right way to play is so important. Think about the big picture. Once you learn these techniques you can
play all day every day with no issues. Wouldn’t that be a wonderful feeling?

- What people are saying about “Guitar Technique and Physiology”
-
- I have to say that I was skeptical about this whole concept but after working on it I can see its benefits. One important thing for me was realizing that this “Home base” technique is where I want to be most of the time but there will be times when I deviate. The MetroDrone® Studies in this course really blew my mind. After a few weeks of practicing using that concept I can play faster and more accurate than I ever could. Just those two videos were worth the full price of this course. T. Toms
- Thanks for the lesson Bruce. Your observations about my technique were spot on. After only a month my playing feels so light and effortless. Such simple changes make such a huge impact! G. Evans
- Bruce thanks so much for stepping through what I was doing wrong with my technique. My pain has stopped and getting my chops back now. Your the best! H. Anderson
- Glad to see you put out a course on the mechanics of guitar playing. I came to you a broken guitarist who had suffered for years with various repetitive stress injuries. That can get you down after awhile. I appreciate your vision and positive attitude in helping me fix my problems. I’ll be forever in your debt! E. Lawrence
- Recommended Starting Sequence for Beginning Guitarists working with the “Guitar Technique and Physiology”
-
- Everyone has different reasons they are studying the “Guitar Technique and Physiology” course. The videos are not ordered in any particular sequence so I will give some suggestions here.
- If you are a beginning student or just want to do a general fix on all aspects of your technique then follow the information below:
- Watch the Left Hand Videos
- Also watch these videos from the “General” category:
- Encouragement
- Final Thoughts
- Home Base
- Not Using Home Base Technique
- Releasing Tension
- Sitting Down Standing Up
- Standing Up Or Sitting Down
- Start Changing Your Technique Now
- Take Signs Of Pain Seriously
- Technique And Application
- The Problems You Will Run Into
- Things To Think About
- Now come back and re-watch the left hand technique videos. You will first concentrate on playing a simple “C” major scale starting from a low “F” on the low “E” string to a high “B” on the high “E” string three notes per string as
shown in the video. Tape hand in the various ways shown in the videos and practice this for 10 to 15 minutes a day. If you are playing other things on the guitar wear the tape if possible. Some techniques like chords will be hard
to play with the tape so take off the tape if it’s in the way. - After a week or so of working with the left hand make a video upload it to youtube or better yet record it on your phone and send it via an email for evaluation. These videos can be 10 and 20 seconds
long. Just play the scale on a few strings is usually sufficient to see if you are playing correctly.
