Q+A - The most commonly asked questions

If you are on the fence of joining TGT Academy you probably have some questions. This is a top level guitar program and we will do our best to answer all of them before you even have to reach out to a real person. But if for any reason there is still a question left - please don hesitate to reach out to our service team at the email address above. Your Biggest Fan,

Ulrich Ellison


I've been playing for some time but this program sounds advanced. How do I know TGT Academy will work for me level-wise?
The reason it sounds advanced is because we don't water down content but talk to you as you were a bandmate. We recommend to have at least 2 years of playing experience, be able to bend some strings and know the basic pentatonic shapes. If you are absolutely in doubt what level you are on then please fill out this Clarity Guide. Also you can send a video (as an upload link please!) of your playing to [email protected] and we will evaluate it. There is no commitment. It's just the most straightforward way for you to know, plus it will help you to get clarity!


I am an advanced player. Is this Academy for me? 
Absolutely. Total Guitar Transformation is for electric guitar players on all levels except absolute beginners. The modules and lessons are stacked in degree of complexity and go all the way to playing over changes with inside and outside concepts, definitely going beyond the Hendrix idiom into modern rock guitar territory. The Hendrix transcription have an attention to detail that will satisfy even expert level players, there is something to learn for everyone. Plus almost all of the exercises and concepts can be adjusted in level of difficulty and conceptual understanding. Some of our students are pro, full-time musicians that you will learn from as well.


I am a total beginner. Do you recommend this program for me?
If you have never played guitar before then this is not the right program for you. Our Academy is transformational in nature, so there needs to be some prior experience if that makes sense. The best results are achieved from students with 2 years of consistent playing experience and up. Expect at least to know some basic string bending, pentatonic positions and chords. The materials and lessons do cover all the foundations from the start, but a true beginner would just take too long to get up to speed to use Hendrix songs to apply our TGT studies, and beyond. 


How much does a year at TGT Academy cost?
We  enroll students on an invite-only basis - only a limited number of students are being enrolled each year. That guarantees the high standard of the program and our community. We will discuss different pricing and payment options with you once we are on the call - but to give you a general idea, TGT Academy is an investment in the mid 4 digits. You are going to get get a guitar education that rivals any professional grade college level guitar program out there, costing 10x and more! 
Can I just subscribe for a month before committing to a full year?


What separates TGT Academy from any other guitar course or online program?
At TGT, we combine 2 very successful guitar learning approaches that are usually only offered in isolation: 1) on-demand learning with 24/7 homework review and 2) personal communication and mentoring by a teacher on a weekly basis. The advantages: you'll get all the benefits of a regular teacher (and a really good and experienced one, we should say!) plus a fully structured learning path that uses the music of Jimi Hendrix to apply all crucial guitar foundations. This makes the whole curriculum very task-based and practical - the way the pro players look at music! 
This works really well for players of all ages and backgrounds. If you look at our marketing - it's mainly based on the results of our students. We feel that the result of each individual student is the ultimate seal of quality, not some fancy names and promotions.


Can I just subscribe for a month before committing to a full year?
At TGT Academy, we work individually and result-based. It is impossible to achieve amazing results in just a month. Most other guitar programs and -teachers don't really care about student success - well, we do. That's why joining TGT Academy requires a commitment to participate in the program for 365 days. If you can't commit to that then don't join. We want to focus on the students that truly want to transform their playing. 


What if I join and find out it's not what I thought? Do you offer a money-back guarantee?
We are only interested in building strong student-teacher relationships. In the unlikely case you find out early that this is not what you expected - we offer a full 14-day money-back guarantee, no questions asked. The only condition is that you submitted at least one homework video and came to 2 of the live classes. We also offer a 6-month success guarantee which requires that you fully participate in the program (show up to weekly lessons, submit at least 10 homework videos, practice on a weekly basis. You gotta put in the work. If you still haven't gotten results we will give you a full tuition refund. We believe in taking care of our students and will do everything in our power to help you succeed.


I really want to join but I have time/commitment issues. How can I know this works for me?
Make no mistake, joining the Academy requires consistency. You also don't sign up for college and then never show up (at least that's not who we want to attract) That being said - we tried to make this program as flexible as possible. Our weekly lesson time is Tuesday, 2pm EST US/8pm Central Europe. That's where most of our current students are. If you cannot make it to the live lessons - you can watch all the replays and fully participate in the group and submit all homework. It is entirely possible to graduate from this Academy without coming to a single zoom lesson! However, then all the other tasks need to completed.
As far as time commitment goes, you will need at least 30 min a day, 10 min of watch time and 20 min of practice, 5-6 days a week. An hour a day is recommended. Consistency is more important than hours spent on the instrument.


Do I need prior music theory knowledge?
No. If you do that’s great, but everything will be explained from the beginning.


Can I purchase the program now and get started in 3 months when I have more time?
Absolutely. You can start the program whenever it fits your schedule and work on your own pace. We do however highly recommend consistent practice for real results, and attend the weekly calls. All lesson calls will be recorded and can be watched again at any point in time.


I really like the idea of this Academy and the unique concept but affordability is a problem. What are your payment options?
We understand the different backgrounds of our students and want to be accessible for any passionate guitarists as much as possible without sacrificing on quality. There are payment plans available for you. You can check if you qualify for Paypal Credit - a zero interest credit line. Apply here

He says that what he learned at TGT Academy helped him for his teaching immensely as well. We wish Neel much success for the future!" - Ulrich Ellison
