Chris, I really liked this series. It really improved my instant recognition of notes. I knew all of the relationships you taught, but hadn't worked with them in "naming the note". I did find that I got some benifit out of playing the notes from music which I had nevery really learned well above the 6th fret. Including some music exercises may be helpful to some people. Thanks again for a well thoughtout series. You are an awsome teacher.

Hi Chirs, Love your series. I think you'll solve my problem for memorizing notes on Guitar. I just print 3 days HW. ..

Chris...just wanted to let everyone know that if you look at this page you will see there is a "Metronome" tab. Metronome is a tool used to keep timing for you (this is what Chris is talking about when he says "click track"). You can use other tools...but you at the page now...why not use it. If you do not have a song book or a person to work with...you could just right notes on a piece of paper in random order and then look at the paper every so often and play the next note...just a suggestion...Good luck everybody and enjoy playing your guitar.

Unfortunately, that metronome doesn't work...It seems to freeze up every once in awhile, and the pulse slows down.

About Chris Liepe View Full Biography Chris Liepe was born on September 17th, 1981 in Portland OR. His first instrument was piano which he pursued until discovering his love for the electric guitar in high school. He became fans of such groups as Soundgarden, Collective Soul and U2 inspiring him to start singing, songwriting and helping others in their musical endeavors with teaching, co-writing and album production.

Having moved to Colorado with his family, he began gigging, recording and teaching in a number of music stores as well as out of his apartment until deciding to pursue music full time. He moved to Denver, CO to complete a Bachelors in Music Technology and was then hired on by Sweetwater Productions, a division of Sweetwater Sound and one of the largest, most successful recording studios in the Midwest.

Chris spent nearly 4 years at Sweetwater as a producer, recording engineer, studio musician and writer. During this time he had the privilege of working with many artists including Augustana, Landon Pigg, Jars of Clay, and Mercy Me. He also wrote for and played on numerous independent albums and hundreds of radio/TV commercials.

Wanting to get back to his favorite State in the world (Colorado) and feeling the urge to 'go freelance', Chris moved to Greeley, CO and opened his own recording and teaching studio. He continues to write and produce music for artists and agencies and is happy to be among the proud JamPlay.com instructors.
