James Harrod

practicing.”


Vin Thomas

any questions or you're stuck in a rut.”


Vicki Huang

Is Pickup Music right for me?



Do you feel like your guitar playing has hit a plateau? 

Are you stuck in a guitar rut where you're just playing the same old chords and
licks?

Are you looking for fretboard freedom?

At Pickup Music, we specialize in:

 * taking beginner guitar players and turning them into intermediate players. 
 * taking intermediate guitar players and turning them into advanced players. 
   

How do we do it? 

 * First, we ask you a few questions to figure out exactly what skill level
   you’re at. 
 * Second, we ask you to commit to a series of Master Classes and Learning
   Pathways that focus on specific techniques. These comprehensive week-by-week
   courses are the best way to get your playing to the next level. 
 * Third, we get you to track your progress on your personalized learning
   dashboard.

Finally, we give you support and feedback through an exclusive members community
and live practice group sessions with other members. This focused approach to
learning guitar will help you bust through the beginner basics, break out of the
intermediate plateau, and level up your playing.

This guided learning approach is the fastest way to make real progress on the
guitar.

What makes Pickup Music better than other guitar lesson sites?



We're glad you asked! So many things:

 * Pickup Music gives you week-by-week guided learning. This is so important for
   making progress and getting out of the beginner plateau. Instead of just
   making you watch a video of an instructor talking about how they play guitar,
   we break things down for you on a daily and weekly basis.
 * Each daily lesson is accompanied by practice exercises where the instructors
   play along with you - almost like they're sitting right beside you. This
   eliminates the guess work so you know exactly what you need to focus on to
   make real and lasting progress with guitar.
 * Our lessons take you beyond the basics. Most online guitar lessons are good
   at teaching new guitarists the easy stuff. Pickup Music goes beyond that to
   help advanced-beginners and intermediate guitarists break through to the next
   level.
 * Our teachers are the best new and modern guitarists in the world. You'll find
   touring musicians, professors of music, and virtuosos from every genre to
   guide you through your guitar journey.
 * We have an extensive library with over 1,000 lessons across most genres for
   every type of guitarist. This means we have the right learning pathway for
   your unique starting point and preferred style of playing.

 * Pickup Music lessons are jam-packed with features to enhance your learning
   experience. This includes interactive TAB, multiple HD camera angles, backing
   tracks, and extensive course notes. All of this is designed to speed up your
   learning so you can achieve real results in your playing.  
 * We keep it fresh - we drop new lessons every. single. week. Plus, we're
   always striving to make each new lesson better than the last.
 * Pickup Music is a supportive and welcoming community. This is the place to
   connect with fellow guitarists, get feedback, and grow together.

What's included in my Pickup Music membership?



Everything! You’ll have unlimited access to every lesson on Pickup Music from
every instructor. That means every Learning Pathway, Master Class, SongSquad,
Licks Package, 5-Minute Lesson... we could go on, but you get the idea. It's an
all-inclusive membership for one affordable price.

How long are the lessons? How long will it take me to complete them?



Pickup Music's lesson plans are designed to suit the amount of time you have
available to practice.

Only got a few minutes? Try our 5-Minute Lessons to quickly add a new skill to
your toolbox.

Got half an hour? Try one of our Essential Lick Packages or SongSquads to expand
your vocabulary in different genres.

Got a couple of days? Try a Master Class with one of our world-renowned artists.
Each class is broken up into short, digestible modules focused on one topic. We
encourage you to complete the exercises for each lesson video before moving on
to the next one because the lessons typically build on each other.

Ready to really commit to a multi-week program? Try one of our Learning
Pathways. Over 6 weeks, these detailed courses will take you on a day-by-day
journey to master each level in the genre. Learning Pathways include daily
practice exercises so you know exactly what to focus on. These courses are the
best way to make lasting progress.

Whichever approach you choose, we recommend building the exercises you learn
into your daily practice schedule. The best way to improve as a guitarist is
through a consistent practice routine rather than sporadic, longer  sessions.
Learning guitar is a day-by-day, life-long journey!

I'm brand new to guitar. Is Pickup Music the right choice for me?



Absolutely! We make learning the guitar made fun & simple – the way it should
be.

Too many people get frustrated with guitar because they develop bad habits and
poor technique. Avoid these costly and time-consuming mistakes by taking Pickup
Music's structured and step-by-step approach to learning guitar.

You'll start with Pickup Music's introductory program Beginner Learning Pathway.
Over three weeks, we break down everything from simple chords and melodies to
rhythm and lead playing. By the end of the program, you'll be able to play any
simple pop or rock song (and even write your own).

Most importantly, we make sure you don't get stuck in the beginner's plateau - a
common pitfall for guitarists who are just starting out. You'll keep making
progress through Pickup Music's guided Learning Pahtways. These programs are
designed to quickly take you from a beginner player to an intermediate one who
feels comfortable across the whole fretboard.

What the difference between the annual and monthly plan?



The only difference is that the annual plan saves you $30 a year.

Both options come with a free 14-day trial. That means, we won't charge your
card for the first 14 days - you can cancel anytime before then.

With an annual membership, we bill you once a year up-front, and you save 17% as
a result. We'll send you reminders before we bill you each year so that you
don't accidentally forget about it.

With the monthly membership, you pay month to month. It's a subscription, so we
bill you each month until you cancel.

Cancelling your plan at any point is very easy to do online - no tricks, emails,
or phone calls required. Just click a button on your account page.

Is a Pickup Music membership worth the money?



When you first start learning guitar, it's okay to bounce around with random
free lessons on YouTube and searching for TABs online. 


That approach is going to make you an OKAY guitar player, but it's not going to
help you take that leap to becoming a serious guitarist - a player who can:


 * Play naturally, without thinking about every move
 * Jam with friends and learn their favorite songs quickly.
 * Blast through that beginner level, break out of the intermediate plateau, and
   start playing like a pro!
   

To become a serious guitarist, you need a clear learning pathway to get to the
next level. You need to free your mind and unlock your fret board - you can do
this with Pickup Music's expert step-by-step instruction. Having this clear
learning pathway is  key to making real progress on the guitar.

What about the price? Is it worth it?
‍
Private lessons will cost you about $50 per lesson or $2,600 a year. Going to a
music academy will cost you about $40,000 a year.

A Pickup Music membership costs just $150 for the whole year. That works out to
41 cents a day!

Signing up for a Pickup Music membership also means that you can stop wasting
your time and effort trying to guess what you should practice next. Our guided
programs eliminate the guess work so you know exactly what you need to focus on
each day and week to make lasting progress with guitar. This will increase your
efficiency and speed up your progress.

Is it easy to cancel?



Absolutely! You can cancel at any time (although we'd be sad to see you go).
Cancelling is easy, no tricks. Just go to your account page and click a button.

You won't be charged anything if you cancel during your 14-day free trial.

If you cancel after your 14-day trial, you won't be billed again at your next
billing cycle. Your membership will remain active until it expires on the day it
was originally set to renew.

Once your membership expires, you will no longer have access to the classes you
were enrolled in during your time as a member, but you can easily restart your
membership at any time. Just log in to your account and renew a monthly or
annual membership to pick up where you left off.

Can I buy lessons individually?



We don’t sell lessons individually. But the good news is you get access to every
single lesson on Pickup Music through the one membership. If you’re only
interested in one lesson, you could purchase a monthly membership and cancel
when you’ve finished it – we have a hunch you’ll want to stick around though :)


Can I cancel my membership at any time?



Yes! All you have to do is click a button on your account page. No tricks, no
emails, no calls. It's a straightforward process.

You won't be billed again at your next billing cycle. Your membership will
remain active and you'll continue to have access to the site until your
membership expires on the day it was originally set to renew.

You can easily restart your membership at any time. Just log in to your account
and renew a monthly or annual membership to pick up where you left off.

Note: Once your membership expires, we'll save your progress on your Dashboard
if you decide to rejoin at a later date.

How does the 14-day free trial work? What is your refund policy?



Your credit card won't be charged for the first 14 days‍
When you first sign up to a Pickup Music membership, your credit card will not
be charged for 14 days. That means that if you decide to cancel within 14 days
of signing up, you won't pay anything.


If you decide to cancel after that, you won't be charged at your next billing
cycle
That means: if you’re a monthly member, you won’t be charged for the next month.
If you’re an annual member, you won’t be charged for the next year.

We don’t offer refunds for payments that have already gone through. But if you
choose to cancel, you will retain full access to the membership until it expires
on the day it was originally set to renew.

Will I be automatically charged each month / year?



The membership is a subscription. After the 14-day free trial, you'll be
automatically charged monthly or annually (depending on which plan you choose).
We send you reminders before your annual subscription renews so you don't
accidentally forget about it. You can easily cancel by turning off auto-renew at
any time in your account page.

How do I restart my membership?



It’s easy to rejoin Pickup Music and we’d be thrilled to have you back! We even
saved all of your lessons for you while you were gone on your Dashboard.

To restart your membership, simply head to this page, select the plan of your
choice, and sign up with the email address you used to sign up the first time
around.
