Hi, I'm Aaron Jaxon. A guitarist, recording artist and online guitar instructor who helps guitar players develop their bluegrass flatpicking skills 

Tell me if this sounds familiar......

 

You've been playing guitar for a few years. Maybe a few decades even. 

 

And your pretty damn good too.

 

Then one day you heard an amazing bluegrass flatpicking player

 

Someone like Billy Strings, Molly Tuttle, Tony Rice or Bryan Sutton and  you thought "gosh I'd love to be able to play like that."

 

The speed, the technique and just the good ol' down home virtuosity of this style of playing really spoke to you. You feel like you would have really arrived if you could pick like those great players.

So you jumped in and started trying to learn this style.

 

Maybe you learned a few licks and tunes on YouTube and started researching what scales you need to know for this style

 

But........

 

It feels disjointed when your playing this stuff. Your having trouble putting it all together when improvising or coming up with your own leads.

 

You don't feel like your fluent in the language of this style of playing. 

 

Plus.......your chops aren't anywhere close to where you'd like them to be. 

 

You don't feel like your technique is sufficient. You can't play as fast and clean as you'd like.

Trust me.......I've been there

 

When I first started playing this style: I didn't even know where to start.

 

And my chops? Well they were inadequate to say the least.

 

I started by trying to play scales along with this kind of music. I'd play a major diatonic or pentatonic scale with some bluegrass music and I was in the right key but it didn't sound like what the great bluegrass guitar players I wanted to emulate were doing.

 

And the reason was simple

 

They were speaking a language that had a unique accent, dialect and slang while I was just "reciting the alphabet" by playing scales.

 

On the chops/technique side of things......

 

I was following the conventional "start slow, practice with a metronome, and slowly increase the speed over time" advice.

 

You know: Play Salt Creek every day at 80bpm and maybe next month you can go up to 85bpm

 

And this wasn't terrible advice but man......

 

It was SOOOOOO SLOW

 

Like a dang eternity.

 

Was there a better, faster way?

 

Spoiler Alert:

 

Yes there was. And is.

 

And that's why I'm here with you today. 

 

I've condensed over 20 years of learning, practicing and teaching bluegrass flatpicking for you in an easy to follow online course

Introducing....

This program is for...

  • Intermediate level guitar players looking to gain more advanced skills in bluegrass flatpicking
  • Advanced rock, country, metal, jazz (really any genre) players who want a deep dive into bluegrass guitar
  • Guitar players who have spent a lot of time on YouTube learning flatpicking but still feel stuck

This program is not for....

  • Beginner guitar players
  • People not willing to put in consistent practice
  • Guitar players looking for a magic pill in the form of a "secret way to hold your pick" that will make you an instant virtuoso 

"I've been looking for a bluegrass course like this for a long time. It really has a huge amount of information that will give me some new chops immediately but also leave many goodies to unpack for months to come. It really is a game changer for me and you can't go wrong with it if you want to improve your bluegrass guitar playing."

Tim Gregory- Flatpicking Mastery student 

The Flatpicking Mastery program isn't going to bog you down with a lot of fancy sounding music theory or conceptual language that's way over your head

 

I wanted the lessons in this course to feel like your coming to my guitar studio for lessons each week (or day!)

 

I teach this course in a very accessible, laid back and straight to the point manner

 

The path is already traced, simplified and optimized for you. You only have to start and follow each step in front of you.

And because this process is so powerful, I can charge over $3000 to teach it to my one-on-one students.

All the knowledge contained in the Flatpicking Mastery Program would take at least 1 year of regular and dedicated private lessons to cover all the material.

At an average rate of $62.50$ per lesson (250$ monthly), even if you took only one private lesson each week for a year, it would add up to $3000.

But when I decided to package my system into a course that anyone could follow, at their own pace, I wanted to make it as accessible as possible.

You can join Flatpicking Mastery in the next few days for only 97$

(regular price: 397$)

This is a companion to the "Fiddle Tunes" module of this course where we will learn 15 fiddle tunes for flatpicking guitar

 

I'll teach you the basic way to play the melody of these tunes and a more advanced way on several of these.

 

However, different players interpret these tunes in slightly different ways. 

 

This is a list of between 2-4 recordings of each of the 15 fiddle tunes we will learn, played by the greats of this style.

 

You can listen to their versions and incorporate their ideas into your own playing 

 

I wish I would have had something like this when I fist got into this style of playing 

Bonus #2- The Ultimate Flatpicking Guitar recommended listening discography

 

This is my master list of over 100 albums featuring what is in my opinion, the best flatpicking guitar ever recorded.

 

The best way to learn is to go to the classics.

 

But it can be hard to know what the classics are with SO much information out there.

 

Well, I've done the hard work for you and made a master list of the best of the best

 

It goes from Doc Watson to Billy Strings and covers everything in between.

 

You can use this list to create a playlist that you listen to whenever you want.

 

When you finish this course, you'll have learned the language of bluegrass guitar and learning from the greats will be much, much easier.

 

You can use this list to jump in and learn as much as you want from the very best players in this style 

 

I can't tell you how much this would have benefited me when I fist got into this style

“I came across Aaron on TikTok while checking out this app my 14 yr old was spending so much time on. And man, was it good. He had the chops and musical open mindedness I was looking for. So I decided to sign up for his course. I've only gone through maybe a handful of topics and videos, but I already feel I got my money’s worth. You get everything you need to build a solid bluegrass flatpicking guitar culture from the basics and up. Really great stuff!” 

Francois Besseyrias- Flatpicking Mastery student

Just think about it

 

For less than what I used to charge for one month of lessons (and what several guitar players I know charge for a SINGLE LESSON), you can learn hundreds of new ideas and unlock so many options on the guitar

 

Wouldn't it be worth it to make a small investment in your playing that will pay off in so, so many ways?

 

As guitar players, we are used to spending thousands & thousands of dollars on equipment over the years (guitars, pedals, amps, speakers, software, studio gear, cables, strings...), and sometimes we forget about investing to actually become better at playing guitar!

 

The Flatpicking Mastery course is the perfect occasion for you to expand your knowledge & your abilities on the instrument, so you can finally reach flatpicking guitar mastery.

Imagine a year from today...

 

Imagine a year from today when you’ll be knowing and mastering a wealth of  bluegrass flatpicking licks, solos, tunes, songs and ideas. Your friends will be impressed and you’ll be very confident about your guitar playing.

Imagine sitting down and having more ideas than ever to come up with your own leads, solos and songs thanks to the abundance of knowledge you've acquired 

If you don’t act, everything is going to stay the same. You will play the same scales, licks and patterns with the same level of technique and you will feel stuck and uninspired.

It doesn’t have to be this way!

You can do this - Bluegrass Flatpicking doesn't have to be impossible to learn. Let me simplify it for you. I’m proof that it’s possible and I’m here to coach you every step of the way and make your life easier!

Your special offer is only valid for a few days!

 

When the countdown hits zero, you won't be able to join Flatpicking Mastery, and the next time you will see it, it'll be at its full price of $397.
