The Guitar Puzzle Goes Analog (First Look Inside)


Hey Reader,

For years, I’ve been on a mission to simplify the guitar fretboard. I’ve taught, written, and created with one goal in mind: to make music theory visual and intuitive for guitarists.

Now, it’s FINALLY time to show you what I’ve been building:

🎉 I’ve officially revealed the What The CHORD Board™ — a patent-pending, analog decoder for guitarists.


This sleek, hands-on tool shows you chords, scales, modes, and key changes — instantly, without a screen or batteries. A complete fretboard system at glance.

🧠 If you’re a visual learner and a pattern seeker like me, or just someone tired of staring at apps that don’t really help you play better — this was built with you in mind. Check it out in the video below.

It’s still in early days, and I’d really love your feedback. What feature would help you most in a tool like this?

Just hit reply and let me know — your thoughts will help shape the next steps.


Thank you so much for being here. More updates soon — including how to get early access.


Gratefully,

Vedran

Hey Reader, I just dropped a new guitar lesson — and this one’s a little different. 🎸 It’s Bésame Mucho, the timeless Latin ballad we all know and love… But this time, I’m joined by none other than Pythagoras himself — yep, the ancient Greek philosopher playing guitar, in a wild, time-traveling duo. This one’s part sketch, part serious lesson, and surprisingly educational. Expect a few laughs and a lot of musical insight. Watch the full video here: 👉 Click Here to Watch on YouTube I've used...

Hey Reader, Ever wanted to add that exotic, Mediterranean sound to your playing? In this new guitar lesson, I dive into a Balkan melody and show you how to create those flowing, emotional lines using two key techniques: 🎶 Tertian harmony - stacking notes in thirds to create melodic depth 🎶 Trills - those quick, vocal-like embellishments that give Eastern music its signature flair Plus, we’ll break down how to solo over the I-bVII progression (A-G) using the Mixolydian scale - a sound that’s...

Hey Reader, You might have heard me talk and write about the Circle of Fifths and how powerful it can be for guitar players. This one minute video brings the Circle to life with dynamic visual animation - not just what it is, but how you can use it instantly on your guitar to unlock all keys - and chord progressions. The best part? You already know the Circle - it's hidden in plain sight, right in the standard guitar tuning! I've expanded the concept into a short, easy-to-follow animation....
