Drue's Acoustic Collection

18 Courses, 201 Hours of Acoustic Tuition, 561 PDF TABS + 2 FREE BONUSES

How it all began...

In the blink of an eye, so much can happen.

It only seems like yesterday that I taught my first guitar lesson.

I was really nervous and didn't know what to expect.

But that lesson changed absolutely everything...

Up until then every job I’d ever had felt like clock-watching.

But teaching guitar was different.

It felt timeless and I was in the moment.

While I didn't know it at the time, I had just discovered my life long passion.

Fast forward 22 years and I now have 250,000 subscribers on YouTube, I host The LGIL UK Guitar Retreats and most importantly I have many happy students from all over the world..

From the very start, my approach has always been simple: learn alongside my students. There’s a quote that sums it up perfectly:

“The teacher and the taught together create the learning.”

As my lessons moved online, I kept listening closely to what students were struggling with and I built courses around the exact challenges they wanted solved.

Fingerstyle, sing & strum, barre chords, classical, blues… and of course the foundations every beginner and intermediate needs.

And that is how Drue’s Acoustic Collection came together.

16 years of online course building brought into one complete library of my teaching.

Whether you’re starting from scratch or returning to guitar let me guide you step by step...

This isn’t just a few lessons thrown together... It’s a complete, structured library I’ve been creating since 2009.

Each lesson is practical, friendly, and focused on helping you improve.

The courses have "little win lessons" that will help you to practice 6 days a week (my recommendation for solid progress).

Here's what you’ll get inside Drue's Acoustic Collection:

 

  • 18 Acoustic Courses covering fingerstyle, beginner and intermediate courses, rhythm, strumming, sing and play, theory, blues and classical guitar.

  • 323 Video Lessons totalling over 201 hours of teaching.

  • 561 PDFs to guide your practice.

  • BONUS 1 = 130 Live Webinars (totalling an extra 98 hours of content) with 152 PDF handouts so you can follow along with each lesson.

  • BONUS 2 = Guitar Toolbox Pages with tips, gear advice, lesson recommendations and more.

  • LIFETIME ACCESSStream or download all lessons whenever and wherever you like

 

It’s all laid out in a step-by-step way, so you can focus on learning songs, improving technique, and building your confidence.

The goal with Drue's Acoustic Collection is to stop you getting lost in random YouTube tutorials.

What is Drue's Acoustic Collection?

Fingerstyle Freedom - Product Image

Fingerstyle Freedom

With 36 videos Fingerstyle Freedom is a fully comprehensive beginners fingerstyle course. There are more lessons than you'd expect because it was made with a “no stone left unturned attitude”.

At its heart, Fingerstyle Freedom builds a core understanding of fingerpicking technique for any skill level, using short, fun and engaging original songs.

The 9 Modules in the course can be broken down into 3 categories:

Lessons 1 - 20 - "Core Fingerstyle Techniques" - 101 Instruction Taught With Clarity + Patience

Lessons 21 - 31 – How To Play "Travis Style" – The Cornerstone Of Folk Fingerstyle Guitar

Lessons 32 - 37 - Fingerstyle Speed Training, Learning By Ear + More...

Beginners Acoustic - Product Image - Drue James

Beginners Acoustic

In Beginners Acoustic, I’ll guide you step by step through the absolute basics while helping you learn new chords, easy songs and develop your technique.

Through the 60 lessons in the course you’ll develop a sense of rhythm, finger strength, and coordination.

I’ll show you practical exercises and small “wins” along the way, so you feel progression every time you pick up the guitar.

Each step builds on the last, so you’re never left wondering what to practice next. You’ll always know exactly where to put your focus to keep making steady progress.

Finally Beginners Acoustic teaches you songs by The Beatles, The Eagles, REM, Coldplay and many more.

Natural Rhythm - Product Image - Drue James

Natural Rhythm

When you learn by yourself it's easy to neglect rhythm as you don't play with other people.

Natural Rhythm was made for self taught guitarists (of all abilities) who want to improve their rhythm and discover that “missing link” when learning from video lessons.

I created Natural Rhythm because 90% of online students (who were previously learning by themselves) were playing songs with the wrong rhythm. And most of the time they didn’t even notice.

Natural Rhythm is 35 videos (181 minutes) of unique rhythm tuition with 18 pdf tabs.

The backbone of Natural Rhythm teaches you how to keep time, read and play along with 153 rhythm guitar examples. More little wins to add in to your practice!

Intermediate Acoustic - Product Image - Drue James

Intermediate Acoustic

Intermediate Acoustic was tried and tested on beginner students as they turned into intermediate players over a 6 year period.

It shares my passion for teaching progressing players in a detailed and engaging way.

The issue with being an intermediate player is our progress can feel slower. However, it's still important to celebrate those "little wins".

That's why Intermediate Acoustic has a series of shorter songs that focus on polishing and refining intermediate techniques.

Not only this but Intermediate Acoustic reinforces relevant and useful music theory principles to take your playing beyond the beginner stages.

Some lesson titles are: Adding Bass Notes To Your Songs, The Revelations of The Nashville System, Playing Moody Bends and The Beauty Of Triads. 

Beyond Fingerstyle Freedom - Product Image - Drue James

Beyond Fingerstyle Freedom

Heavily requested follow up to Fingerstyle Freedom...

Picking up where Fingerstyle Freedom left off this intermediate fingerstyle course contains 30 song lessons. (273 Minutes)

Each song builds upon the last with "little win" original songs that explore many different intermediate techniques such as:

Alternate Tunings (You'll learn 7 different tunings, each with a mini song project to get you started.)

Barre Chords + Finger Strength (Song ideas to get those barre sounding clean and fluid.)

Speed Challenges (Take your travis picking to new levels of speed.)

Percussive Techniques (Chucks, mutes and everything in-between)

Sing & Strum E Course - Product Image - Drue James
