Learning to code and learning to play music are extremely similar in my experience. http://tommy.authpad.com/when-does-learning-stop-being-so-ha...

Rock on! Can't wait to see it.

I signed up. I'm a self taught guitar player, and although I've made pretty good progress, sometimes it's tough to make time to practice. I'm hoping that weekly lessons will inspire me to make time for it.

Good luck!

Are these for absolute beginners or are they useful for people with some experience?

Hey I'm one of the founders. The early weeks are focused on beginners and then it will get more advanced.

This is brilliant! I've seen some early betas of Instinct, and I'm super excited to see this roll out. It really makes learning guitar simple and fun - almost like a video game. I've been an amateur since I got a guitar at 16 - I can play, but never got serious about it. I'm really looking forward to spending some time each week getting better!

We only have acoustic guitars at my house. Will this work with them? Should I use an amp? (1 has a pickup).

Yes it works with any guitar and you don't need a pickup or any cables. Because it listens thru the microphone, you can just sit near your computer and play your guitar like you normally would.
