Justin Sandercoe (Justin Guitar)

Born in Australia, and based in London, Justin Sandercoe is a guitarist, songwriter, performer, producer, and educator - not to mention, being quite a celebrity in the guitar space.

It's probably justified to call Justin Sandercoe the pioneer of online guitar education at this point.

After teaching private guitar lessons, Justin started teaching guitar online back in 2001, and launched JustinGuitar.com back in 2003. With a combination of courses, apps, books, jam tracks, and more, Justin Guitar is one of the most popular guitar instruction web sites in the world - with Justin being the favorite online guitar teacher for hundreds of thousands of guitar players.

Justin's background includes playing in bands and teaching starting at only 12-years-old, attending and teaching at The Guitar Institute in London, and touring with various bands (including playing over 1,00o gigs in a Rolling Stones tribute band!). He's also been published in Guitar Techniques Magazine, Total Guitar, Guitar Magazine, & Guitar Tutor, and has taught masterclasses at music conferences.

JustinGuitar.com features lessons and tools to help beginning, intermediate, and advanced guitar players. Whether you're just getting started with chords and strumming, or want to learn improvisation, blues, jazz, music theory, ear training, and transcribing, Justin covers it all.

While the site contains over 1,000 lessons, it's really the quality over the quantity that keeps guitar players engaged and coming back for more. Justin does a great job breaking complicated things down into simple terms, and he even tells you not to learn things you won't use. He's honest about it and if you want to go deep into theory, the content is there, but there's no point in learning certain things if you don't apply them to your normal playing.

Justin Guitar has grown in part to the large amount of great free content Justin offers, while his premium courses and other products will take your guitar playing to the next level.

For gear enthusiasts, Justin has quite the guitar collection, which includes a 1964 Fender Jaguar, 1965 Gibson SG, 1966 Fender Telecaster (featured in the photo above), a 1969 Gibson ES-335, and many more.
