"Forget about using useless note learning methods that don’t work and improve your guitar playing by learning to find any note on your guitar INSTANTLY…with eleven easy and simple steps to Guitar Note Mastery"



"…one of the simplest and most useful educational tools that I have purchased on the internet."


"You wouldn’t think that knowing every single note on the fretboard would make that much difference to your playing, but you would be wrong. All those scale and chord shapes that you already know suddenly seem to make sense when you intuitively understand where to place them. It doesn’t matter what key – it’s just so much easier. Craig’s ebook is one of the best ways to gain this vital knowledge and I can honestly say that it has been one of the simplest and most useful educational tools that I have purchased on the internet. Don’t think twice, buy it!"


"After a few weeks following the exercises in Guitar Note Mastery I have no problem now at all with remembering any notes up to the 12th fret.I have no trouble playing the same notes in different positions up and down the fretboard.If the instructions are followed as layed down I don’t see why anyone shouldn’t improve their knowledge drastically.I did and I don’t think I’m much of a musician at all but really enjoy playing."


"Guitar Note Mastery is a logical and structured way to learn every note on the neck! I think this knowledge will help guitar players at any level. For me, really learning the fretboard helped me quickly find the individual notes, but also to learn the musical intervals and chord inversions because I "built it in" with my study of the fretboard. Music Theory becomes real when you understand the fretboard."


"Dear Craig, I just wanted to let you know that your book, "Guitar Note Mastery" was a real "eye-opener" for me. As a player who spent a lot of time in the first 5 frets, the book helped me see patterns that repeat themselves up and down the fretboard – and as you know, once you can see these patterns, all sorts of opportunities present themselves for playing better guitar. Thanks much!"

If learning the notes on the fretboard is such a valuable thing to do, why do so few guitarists actually do it? What are some of the obstacles that may be blocking your road to total fretboard domination? Let’s take a look at a few now…


Over the last sixteen years of being a professional guitar tutor, I’ve tested many different note learning strategies on hundreds of my students. I’ve kept the ones that work and thrown out the ones that don’t. Guitar Note Mastery gives you the complete system that I have developed…


Here’s a little bit of background information about me. This will give you the confidence that the information in the e-book is excellent…


A Short Musical Background Profile… At the age of 8 I started learning classical piano. This helped me to develop an excellent understanding of music and music theory. It also helped me to learn some of the practice techniques used in classical piano. I played piano until I was 17. I started playing guitar when I was 17. It didn’t take long for me to fall in love with the instrument. I would often practice at least 3 hours each day after school. In the weekend I would often practice up to 10 hours a day. It would be a fair comment to say that I was obsessed! I have studied and played with some of the best musicians in New Zealand including: Noel Clayton, Leigh Jackson, Colin Hemmingsen, Paul Dyne, Nick van Dijk, Norman Meehan and Roger Sellers. In 2000 I completed a Bachelor of Music (jazz performance) from Massey University in Wellington, New Zealand. During my studies I learned about improvisation, composition, arranging, music theory, ear-training and ensemble playing. Over the last 19 years I have had experience performing in different musical genres including jazz, metal, rock, blues and funk.


A Short Teaching Profile… I have been a professional guitar tutor for over sixteen years and have taught in the following situations: High Schools (eg. Pakuranga College, Saint Kentigerns College) Music Schools (eg. The Music Education Centre, Studio 10) Master Classes (improvisation and technique development) Private Teaching (both one-to-one and group settings)
