We’re dedicated to teaching guitar players HOW to practice the guitar.
Gary Joseph Potter Jr. on stage.
PracticeTheGuitar.com was created by Gary Potter in early 2011. Gary graduated from Berklee College of Music with a degree in Guitar Performance. With 21 years of guitar playing experience, Gary has toured both nationally and internationally as a live musician.
In addition to live performance, Gary has been teaching guitar for seventeen years, while also gigging in both studio and theater-pit settings. His proficiency with the instrument has landed Gary multiple features on Guitar World’s “Lick Of The Day” app, and Guitar World Magazine. Through his extensive experience in both group and private lessons, Gary came to recognize a need for a professional practicing tool, and got to work making videos for PracticeTheGuitar.com.
PracticeTheGuitar.com is an interactive website that is meant to aid guitar players of all different levels in furthering their skill set. What you get here is something that you cannot get anywhere else: full, comprehensive videos that show you how to practice the guitar. Each video is designed to give the viewer a real person to practice along with. All videos also include full notation, tablature, and video commentary explaining what the exercise is, how to properly play it, and how it will benefit your playing.
The site also includes multiple backing tracks for the viewer to use on their own, when they feel they are ready. This is not a replacement for traditional lessons, but merely an added tool to be used when trying to better your playing. If you have any questions at any time, feel free to send an email to practicetheguitar@gmail.com.
