Lukas is one of the best instructor out there!

Lukas is one of the best instructor out there. Had an opportunity to book a 1:1 private session with him and he is an absolute gem! I had zero knowledge when I joined the course, only had a guitar and learnt a few covers of simple songs (zero theory knowledge) I a weeks time I was playing all 5 shapes of Pentatonics like a breeze. The MGC makes learning in a fun way, all the backing tracks are mind blowing I play them everyday, they seem to make the boring exercises fun to play! The website is nice and easy and the best part is Lukas reaches out to you personally the moment you enroll for the course. This course has been a godsend and I am very happy to have come across it!

First chat with Lukas and huge help!

I worked on the first module and had my first call with Lukas. Amazing help getting me going and made a custom plan for the next 30 days. I highly recommend this course for not just beginners, but for anyone wanting to push their skills to the next level.

Great!

I've been learning with the MGC for about a month now, and I find it to be really, really good! What I particularly like is that Lukas explains everything very concisely, briefly, and very understandably with lots of examples! The licks are very cool, and they're really fun to play, and the backing tracks are cool too!

Moreover, the Facebook group where I can post videos and already received feedback from Lukas is great! And the first call with him where he created a practice plan for me was super cool! Lukas is very motivating! Looking forward to the next one and can only recommend the MGC! I'm sure I'll be able to work with it very well for 1-2 years!

Great program!

The Modern Guitar Course is excellently put together, and fun. Lukas is also responsive via email, Instagram, and the Private Facebook Group. I noticed an improvement in my playing within a few days, and the structure of the program inspires me to pick up the guitar even on sluggish or busy days. This program is a must have for inspiring shredders.

This is the zero-BS way of getting better at guitar.

If you are an intermediate player, this course is what you're looking for. YouTube is long winded and weird. The tutors there are looking to keep you on their videos forever, and they're not in chronological order anyway, and it's all disjointed.

Lukas is fast, focused, and zero-BS. He tells you exactly what to do in seconds, you just have to stick to it. And he gives you everything you need to succeed. The only way you fail is by not doing your homework.

Modern Guitar Course is a ruthless, clinical, yet super fun and accessible way of getting better. If you're serious, if you're done screwing around, and you want to sweep pick like Yngwie, this is the course you need.

Beginners CAN do this course, but truly I think this is best if you've learned a bunch of chords and have a few years and songs under your belt but lack a unifying theory.

The practice routine feels natural yet intense. I'll review again in a year and let you know how this goes!

Hand Synchronization

The hand synchronization exercises have been great so far. They really help with establishing muscle memory for scale patterns, and consistency with alternate picking.

Real, Positive, Immediate Impact On My Playing

I haven't even finished the hand, fingering and picking exercise module yet - the difference in my playing is very noticeable.

His first Zoom call (I HATE video calls, but this was actually... ENJOYABLE!) with me got me over my first sticking point, and was a really great confidence boost to boot.

Can't wait to see where i'm at after getting through the entire course!

I know there's a lot of Instagram/Social Media peeps selling their lessons, but you can order Lukas' with confidence.

Just 2 weeks and enjoying it everyday

I've been in MGC just for 2 weeks and I can tell a difference already. It is awesome the way Lukas approaches the different subjects he is teaching and so far, I have been enjoying more playing guitar as I feel I'm getting slowly out of where I was stuck.

Well I've only just started but am incredibly happy with the amount of support and care you receive even straight from the get go!

Lukas has fantastic energy and really helps you appreciate yourself as a musician. Definitely a very motivational instructor and really easy to get along with.

Hoping to use this course to tie together the absolute landmine maze of music theory in my brain and it seems to be doing the trick so far! Looking forward to progressing further and it's incredibly nice to have some guidance and drive in the right direction, rather than just hoping it all clicks one day.

Lets go!

Hey Chris, thanks for the review, it's great to have you as part of MGC, keep up the awesome work!

Modern Guitar Course is FANTASTIC!!

I've taken a few online music courses before & have found Modern Guitar Course to be the best I've tried yet.

Lukas establishes great building blocks to help break playing barriers (speed, understanding theory etc.) and explains them in an easily digestible way. He even takes the time to meet with you over Zoom to set realistic goals in the areas you'd like to improve.

If you take this course & put the work in, you will see results. Koodas to Lukas for putting together such a well-thought-out program.

Cameron, thanks so much for the kind words. Kudos to you man for putting the time in to become the guitar player you deserve to be!

Great Value and Plenty of Content!

The course has a lot of solid foundational exercises and delves into more than shredding. Even after having used it for a few weeks, I've already gotten more comfortable with my fretboard. The way Lukas explains concepts is in line with the way I like to be taught. If you like his content on YouTube/Instagram, this course is well worth the cost.

This guitar course is simply amazing.

This guitar course is simply amazing.
I`m playing guitar over 22 years and found many exercises which "broke" my head and hands. It`s definitely improved my skills and brought me to another level. The length of the video is exactly right time as should be.
On top of this Lucka has acceleration free video call and he is super nice guy in life. For me it`s without doubts the best guitar course I ever tried.

DEADLY

Solid course delivered by a solid dude!
An extensive amount of well structured and laid out information.
It's cool too, being able to be in contact with Lukas throughout the whole course, to have your questions answered.
Highly recommend, only if you like things that are good.

Taking it to the Next Level

As an on and off guitarist for many years, this course has really set me on the right track. It has given me the motivation and a clear structure to follow to improve to reach mastery, and the calls with Lucas, he is such a great teacher and can quickly identify your level and give you the best advice suited for you, as well as pick out or improve anything you wish and is responsive on IM. There are few courses as well designed or suited to cover all you need and to keep it exciting, with indepth videos and tabs and audio files and pdf. I believe everything is achievable with this course and am very satisfied with it.

Also this is my review 2 months in, since I wanted to give it time and be sure of what it is. It's the real deal and my progress has skyrocketed immensely and super efficiently, saving my valuable time.

Lukas Kocka's guitar course is worth to put your money in

Lukas Kocka's guitar course excels with its user-friendly approach, simplifying complex concepts for easy understanding. Covering essential techniques, music theory, and including riff chugging and fast solos, it provides a concise and accessible path to mastering the instrument for guitarists.

The best online guitar course offered!

As a self taught guitarist I was in search for a systematic and well structured guitar course in which I could learn basically almost everything from theory to technique etc. MGC is that course that really has everything you need to spike up you playing right from a beginner to advanced. And above all you also get an acceleration one on one call with Lukas.
Lukas has really put in alot in this course and I must say it is like no other. He guides you in every step of your guitar journey which I must say not every online guitar course offers.
I am really glad that I have taken up this course. It has been a little more than a month now and I have literally seen myself improve. The exercises in MGC are really fun and challenging.
I would personally recommend this course to any guitarist that wants to up their guitar game and reach their potential in guitar playing.
All thanks to Lukas. Cheers man!! MGC rocks!!!!!!

Shredding is Lukas's business, and business is good.

Lukas is a top musician and teacher. His course has reinvigorated my love and drive for playing guitar. When i purchased this course i looked at it as an investment to better myself. The same way i joined the gym to get better physically and mentally, i did for my passion which is shredding. Thanks Lukas, you da real mvp.

Excellent course and agreat value…

I'm a life long guitar player thats been caught at an intermediate level for a long time. So far the coursework is exactly what I needed, the lessons are challenging but not overwhelming and they have shown me where I need to improve. In our phone conversation Lukas gave me several exercises that I was able to implement quickly and see small results. For the price, this is an absolute value. I really look forward to where I'll be in a couple months.

Thanks Lukas!

This course is literally the best…

This course is literally the best course I have everI purchased.

I want to make clear I am not at all sponsored and literally came across this on black Friday and found it spoke to me. I wanted to pay for lessons in person but figured I would give this a try. I have tried every online course I could find (all the trails). None stood out to me due to all of them being for beginners. I'm not a great shreader by any means but I am a intermediate guitar player.

Who this is for:
Any guitar player who can play penatonic scales or basic riffs. Anyone with some basic mechanics of guitar playing down.

What I have gained in 7 days:
I have a cleaner way to play and worked out many bad habits quickly.

Overall the course is very well structured and explained extremely well. The course has a higher price tag because you are literally getting a higher level course. I can't speak highly enough about this course. The only thing I can mention to help someone with the courses is to remember before taking this course is to print out the exercises prior to following along with the videos. Take time to have an idea where your fingers go.

Also Lukas seems like a great genuine dude. He is easily reachable to give great advise.

I would HIGHLY reccomend!
