The Amazing Story Of
“How The Music Theory Secrets
Were Uncovered”
Marty here…
You know when you have “That Moment”, that crystal clear memory of something that happened in your past that literally changes your life? Mine happened on an unusually cool early summer day as I was taking a tour at the College of Sante Fe, in New Mexico…
At the time, I was a high school senior doing that time-honored ritual known as Ignoring The Wishes Of My Parents by blowing off their recommended college choice for me. They wanted me to stay close to home in SoCal. But I was drawn to the film school program at a certain college in New Mexico. Soon as I walked onto campus I kept hearing about some music forum that was supposed to go off. It was some sort of open mic event, and it was cool enough with various music majors jamming…
But then what happened NEXT really blew me away…
All of a sudden, the school’s music education teachers got on stage and the first thing I noticed that this was not your “normal” collection of college professors. No tweedy jackets, no leather patches on the elbows. I saw a lot of long hair, bell bottoms and corduroy jackets. But it’s what I HEARD next that changed my world. These guys just about tore the roof off the place and they rocked so damn hard I couldn’t believe it! My mouth dropped open. And I got chills hearing all the students screaming and clapping their hands raw.
Now this…THIS… is what I wanted in a college!! That was all I needed to see. Game over, give me the pen right there, sign me UP, this is where I’m going to school and screw anyone else’s expectations of what they wanted for my life! And you know what? It turned out to be the best decision I ever made.
Now let me tell you where I’m REALLY going with this story….
One of my teachers at that school was a super cool dude in his late 20s his name was Chris Sherland. He was from L.A. music scene and you only had to hear a few notes to tell that this guy could absolutely shred.
Long story short, he wanted to teach me music theory. I was dreading it a little, to be honest, because I heard that this was the “necessary evil” of music education. I prepared for the worst, but what happened next changed me as a guitar player forever…
This teacher sat me down and said, “Marty, who inspires you?”
“Jimi Hendrix,” I said, “because his playing crosses all genres.”
“Okay, that’s cool,” he said. “Now check this out…”
He grabbed his guitar and played one of Jimi’s signature licks. Then he explained what scale it was and, more importantly, exactly WHY it sounded so cool to millions of fans like myself. It turns out that this music theory stuff gives you a roadmap to your audience’s hearts by showing you what note and chord combinations provide the greatest emotional response for anyone listening.
How great was THAT? Now I could recreate that over and over again in countless other combinations! Then he showed me a couple other aspects of music theory that, when tied to the Hendrix licks I liked, did nothing less than transform how I approached the guitar from that point on.
Seriously, it was like being handed the key to a vault of guitar secrets that I could access any time. If you have shied away from guitar theory for whatever reason, you have NO IDEA what you are missing.
It makes me a little angry to hear that people are not taught music theory the right way, because it’s not only the “missing piece” for most players who haven’t yet reached their goals, but it really is the only way you will ever be a complete guitar player.
And that’s why I created my new program, “Music Theory Survival Guide.” No mumbo jumbo. No useless jargon. Just a complete system designed to unlock your full potential as a guitar player, period. If you have ANY goals whatsoever with the guitar that go beyond what you’re currently doing now, then this is the bridge that will take you there.

Let Me Tell You A Quick Story
Why This Is Absolutely Crucial
Tell Me If You Can Relate To This Story …
I was talking to one of my students yesterday and he asked me when I started to play guitar. Wow, that brought back some memories you see, I took my first REAL lesson at a local guitar shop when i was 13.
Well, to make a long story short the teacher had me doing 1 note scales which sounded like bad nursery rhymes. My dreams of becoming a shredding RockStar came to a crashing halt after a few painful lessons.
Luckily, a few years later I got in a band with my friends, I was playing harmonica. I watched the guys have a blast on their guitars playing all our favorite songs, with just a few simple chord shapes. I thought man, this is what I wanted to do a few years back, the guys showed me some basic chords and rhythm and I was off like a rocket.
So here it is, 16 years later, and let me tell you, I will NEVER forget that first lesson in that dingy little guitar shop.
Why do I say that? Because I have made it my absolute mission to never BORE a student into quitting this fabulous instrument!
(Believe me, it can happen…even from some very well-known guitar instructors)
My main goal is to have you playing your favorite songs FAST…not only without boring you, but making it outright FUN in the process. It won’t feel like practice. It will feel like PLAY.
C’mon, isn’t that what it’s all about?
You will discover analyzing music is like solving a puzzle created by a genius
