LEARN FROM SOMEONE WHO ACTUALLY DOES THIS FOR A LIVING.
Play Like A Pro is taught by professional session and touring guitarist Jamie Ellis. The lessons are built around the same practical skills used on stages, in theatres, recording sessions and live television — not just theory for theory’s sake.
The goal is simple: learn the skill, understand where it fits, and be able to use it when you actually play.
YOU PROBABLY DON'T NEED MORE GUITAR LESSONS.
There are more free guitar lessons online than any of us could watch in a lifetime. The problem usually isn't finding more information.
It's knowing what to learn next, what actually matters for your playing, and how all the different chords, scales, techniques and theory are supposed to connect.
I don't know what I should actually practise.
I know the shapes, but I still get lost on the fretboard.
I know scales, but my solos still sound like I'm practising scales.
I've learned loads of things, but I don't know how they all connect.
If any of that sounds familiar, the answer probably isn't another random tutorial.
YOU NEED A CLEAR PATH THROUGH WHAT TO LEARN, PRACTISE AND APPLY NEXT.
DON'T JUST WATCH LESSONS. BUILD REAL SKILLS.
Everything inside Play Like A Pro is designed to move you from simply understanding an idea to actually being able to use it when you play.

STUDENT REVIEWS
WHO AM I?...
Hi, I'm Jamie, a professional session guitar player. After university, I spent years trying to establish myself in the music industry. During that time, I couldn't help but wonder why so many musicians were so closed off when it came to sharing insider knowledge. How do I apply this new scale? How do I reharmonize songs like the pros in the London jam scene? How do I land a spot on the latest tour?
Eventually, I uncovered the answers to these well-guarded secrets. But, I was frustrated by the level of gatekeeping around such valuable knowledge. Music is meant to be fun, expressive, and shared, not kept hidden. That's exactly why I created Play Like A Pro—so you can access the tools, tips, and techniques that I wish I had known from the start!
