Track 01 / 04

Beginner Acoustic Foundation.

Three finished songs in twelve weeks. One chord at a time. The starting point of mazdisocveer.cfd's full teaching method — built for absolute beginners and folks who picked up a guitar, set it down for years, and want to come back without feeling small about it.

What mazdisocveer.cfd's beginner program actually looks like.

If you've never played a guitar before — or you've played enough to know three chords and hit a wall — this is where we start. Twelve weeks, sequenced tightly, with one clear goal: you finish three songs you actually like, on a real guitar, with your own hands.

I don't promise you'll be a shredder. I don't claim you'll read music fluently by week 10. What I do promise is that your hands will know what they're doing — and that you'll have audio proof by week four that progress is real.

WEEKS 1–4

Foundation blocks

Open chords (G, C, D, Em). One strum pattern — down-strokes, then down-up. The barre chord is gently introduced at week 3, with a built-in workaround if your hand isn't ready.

WEEKS 5–8

First two songs

A simple folk song (think Hozier-lite strummed) and one fingerstyle arrangement. By week 8 you can play both top-to-bottom without stopping. Recorded homework with my feedback each week.

WEEKS 9–12

Third song & consolidation

A chord-melody piece that ties together everything from weeks 1–8. By week 12 you have a finished repertoire and a clear roadmap for what comes next — intermediate track, a specific genre dive, or songwriting.

Who this is for.

  • You've never held a guitar, or you held one once and put it down.
  • You have 15–30 minutes a day for practice, three to four days a week.
  • You want to play real songs, not just exercises.
  • You're in or close to the USA timezone — I cover every US time zone for online lessons.

Who this isn't for.

  • If you've been playing for two years and you know your open chords — start with the Intermediate Electric track instead.
  • If you want to read music notation fluently from day one — book a consult call first so I can point you somewhere better.
  • If you're looking for a 4-week intensive to learn "Wonderwall" for a wedding — possible, but I'm not the cheapest way to do it.

Pricing.

Single 60-minute lesson: $110 USD. A four-lesson pack: $420. The recommended 12-lesson pack (full program): $1,200. Pack prices exclude applicable taxes and transaction fees — see refund & cancellation policy for pack rollover terms.

What you get beyond the lesson.

  • A written curriculum document for every 4-week block — yours to keep.

90% of beginners who finish the mazdisocveer.cfd 12-pack continue into the intermediate or theory tracks. The completion rate is high because the program is short enough to feel finishable.

FAQ for this track.

For this track: a steel-string acoustic with a comfortable neck. I'll send you my starter-recommendations doc after your intake form — three specific models under $400 that I trust. Don't buy before I see you.

No — I've taught sixty-year-olds who hadn't touched a guitar since school and fifteen-year-olds with hands twice the size of yours who couldn't keep time on a 4/4. Hand size is almost never the actual bottleneck. Practice consistency is.

Sure. The same 12-week structure works on electric — we'll just shift some of the repertoire choices and use lighter-gauge strings. Mention it in the intake form and I'll route you.
