“Study With Adam” Website Launching April 14, 2015

By Adam Rafferty 5 Comments

If you’ve ever asked me about

  • lessons for cover songs
  • how to arrange songs
  • personal / SKYPE or workshop lessons with me

You probably got a message from me like:

“I am working on a new site, and I’ll let you know when it’s ready.”

swa-launch-2-coming-april-14

On April 14th – it will be ready!

The all-new “Study With Adam” site will be launching on April 14, 2015.

The web address will be https://studywithadam.com

It’s my “virtual” teaching studio for one-on-one relationships with students (like you!)

Here’s how it works. There are 2 main parts:

1. You’ll Get Personalized Video Lessons Based on Your Playing

You’ll be able to post videos to me, and I will give you “Personal Video Feedback Responses”

  • You can post videos when you feel ready
  • You get to choose whether they are ā€œprivateā€ or ā€œpublicā€
  • You’ll get video guitar lesson responses from me within about a week

Pretty cool, eh?

2. You’ll Also Get Pre-Recorded Video Lessons for Many of My Fingerstyle Arrangements & More…

The site will launch with over 6.45 hours worth of full length video lessons for many of the Youtube cover songs YOU have requested, original songs, technique lessons, bluesy tricks, harmony and more…

(75 videos total have been posted, and the site isn’t even live yet.)

Note: I will NOT be announcing which songs are inside the ā€œStudy With Adamā€ membership.

Why? This library is for members who are serious about studying with me, and the library is considered to be a “mega bonus”.

There will be a free 14 day trial, so you can see for yourself what’s inside, risk-free:-)

A good handful of my most requested song lessons are finished, and I will add one per month.

There is plenty there to keep you busy, starting as soon as you log in.

(There will be NO tabs for cover songs, for legal reasons.)

Launch Bonuses & Special Announcement

Over the next few days I will let you know about the FREE bonus and incredible giveaway that will be available to you (this is for ā€œearly birdsā€ only…)

Feel free to contact me or comment below if you have any questions!

    Hi Adam….

    I am excited to see what comes of this. I’ve attempted some of your arrangements (via dvd) with mixed success and feel my fingerstyle playing while improving is not where it needs to be in order to really be able to take advantage of having you as a coach.

    At the same time – I love the concept of the “watch & play” library to try to learn other arrangements by you on my own time and speed. You are a soulful and gifted artist and it would truly be an honor to get input and personal instruction from you. I recently attended a workshop by Laurence Juber and it was an unbelievable experience and obviously very humbling.

    Peace and blessings to you…

    Dave

    Hey Adam –

    You have a great concept in the works!!! If done right, your new website should be the ‘best of the best’ at learning how to play fingerstyle guitar AND receiving critiques on how to improve or whatever bits of advice you may offer. That last part is the main difference between the many sites out there.

    A few questions though; can the user post a video of any song he/she is working on for critique, or are critiques only offered on playing whatever material you may post? Also, what frequency can a subscriber post videos for response and critique?

    Can’t see how this won’t be a successeful adventure for you. Can’t wait until the website comes online.

    Matt

      You can post any song you are working on, you can even post a spoken question, and can post an audio only soundcloud file. Video is preferred so I can see your technique. It need not be a tune that I play, or a tune on the site…all aspects of playing (groove, tone, technique, sound etc) will be under my watchful eye and ear šŸ™‚ Thanks for commenting! AR
