Interactive Feedback on Your Playing!Interactive Feedback shows you when you play the correct notes on your guitar as you progress through an exercise. With a microphone connected to your computer and a guitar in your hands, play the notes in the exercise (or song) on any screen featuring the “ear” icon in the upper right corner, and the computer will highlight the notes for you in green. As you reach your goals of getting all notes to change color in each exercise, you’ll discover that reading tablature and music notation is easier than you ever thought possible!
Note and Finger Tracker!The Note Tracker and Finger Tracker tools help you see more easily what note you’re playing by displaying the note as music notation and on an animated fretboard. You’ll be able to correct your playing quickly and learn to read music fast!
Over 170 Step-by-Step LessonsYou’ll learn to play solos like the ones Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix made famous, using newly acquired skills such as hammer-ons, pull-offs, bends, vibrato, and slides. Barre chords and different strumming styles are covered in the rhythm chapters, and there’s a fingerstyle chapter as well. Intervals, scales, and the basics of improvisation are also covered in this comprehensive volume. As with Guitar Method, your instructor Kevin Garry, Ph.D., provides clear and friendly instruction.
Over 30 Large-Format VideosProfessional guitar instructor Kevin Garry, Ph.D., guides you in over 30 videos with demonstrations of techniques – now larger, with enhanced quality! You can even view them in full-screen mode if you want to.

eMedia Intermediate Guitar Method (Mac) is downloadable Mac software for guitarists ready to build intermediate skills through 170+ lessons, interactive playing feedback, and technique videos. It suits learners who can play the basics and want guided practice with solos, chords, scales, and music theory.
Recommended For
- Guitarists who know the basics and want a structured next step in lead playing, including scales, bends, vibrato, hammer-ons, and pull-offs.
- Self-directed players practicing at a computer who want to slow down or loop song sections, follow an animated fretboard, and get note-level feedback while working through lessons.
- Players who want to connect guitar practice with music reading and theory, using tablature or standard notation alongside lessons on scales, chords, intervals, and basic improvisation.
- Rhythm and fingerstyle guitarists looking for guided practice with barre chords, strumming patterns, Travis-style fingerpicking, and a large chord reference.
Real-World Use Scenarios
- A guitarist who knows basic chords but feels stuck can work through intermediate lessons on barre chords, strumming, scales, and lead techniques to build a more structured practice routine.
- Someone learning a lead-guitar passage can slow down the MIDI and follow the animated fretboard to practice notes and techniques such as bends, slides, hammer-ons, and vibrato at a manageable pace.
- A player who wants to move beyond open chords can use the rhythm lessons to practice barre-chord shapes and different strumming patterns, then apply them to song-based exercises.
- A guitarist exploring fingerstyle can follow lessons on Travis-style picking and arpeggios, using demonstrations and song examples to practice coordinated picking patterns.
- A self-directed learner studying scales and improvisation can use the scale and theory lessons to connect fretboard patterns with chord construction and basic soloing ideas.
