Premier Clinic, powered by TrueFire



Premier Clinic The relentless pursuit of tone is a journey brimming with the discovery of gear, electronics and chops. This brand new Premier Clinic section focuses on the latter with a continuing series of lesson plans across blues, rock, jazz, fingerstyle and special techniques.

Crafted with our friends at TrueFire and powered by their massive library of top-notch educational content, Premier Clinic lessons are presented with a variety of lesson assets including text overviews, video lessons, rhythm tracks, notation and Power Tab, all of which are available online.

Man, this is so cool. I'm so terrible at just listening to the parts and trying to learn stuff. It's great to be able to see what they are doing. Plus I can replay it over and over. My guitar teacher only has so much patience, and he looks like he'll hit me if I ask him to show me something again.:)
