About us

GCH Guitar Academy was established in 1992, however the founder Gareth Hargreaves had been teaching, and playing in bands and as a studio artist since the 1980's. The course was developed to teach individuals, school classes and groups how to play the guitar. The course was developed because the commercially available material was, and is so poor. Having been developed for, and being used to teach one to one students the course has been tried and tested and changed where necessary to produce the best possible results the course is now one of the best courses available.

In the years between 2000 and 2015 the GCH Guitar Academy guitar course material was reproduced with multimedia technology. This led to the production of the multimedia guitar method CD-rom and DVD-rom that could not be beaten at the time. We originally intended to pass the multimedia course on to a publisher to take over the sales and distribution. However we remained the sole maker and distributors of the course giving us the ability to provide a far more unique learning experience.

The multimedia course became well established, having sold tens of thousands of copies worldwide and having been featured in a number of high profile magazines. The course still continues to evolve, grow and improve.

In this next stage of development I have been able to start to provide the course for free, making it even more accessible. This has been made possible with the help of sponsors, advertisers and using one of the most popular search engines in the world, YouTube.
