The Guitar Tuner
Pluck a string and wait. The needle settles on the note and tells you sharp or flat — or tune by ear against a tone.
Inside Adam's Academy
The practice tools
The signature courses give you the material. The live classes give you the room and the people in it. These eight tools are what you practise with in between — the same things Adam puts in front of a student sitting across from him. Each one has a guide below that shows exactly how to use it, and a door straight into the Academy to try it.

Set up
In tune, in time. The two things every practice starts with.
-
-
Free
The Metronome & Rhythm Trainer
A metronome that swings, plays odd meters, brings a drum kit, and listens back to check whether your time is actually solid.
Train
The neck, learned the way Adam teaches it — by ear and by hand at the same time.
-
Free
The Interval Trainer
Every interval, in every key, lit up everywhere it falls on the neck at once — ear training with your fingers.
-
Free
The Scale Trainer
Every scale, in every key, in the positions Adam teaches them in — played back at your tempo while the neck shows you where you are.
-
Free
The Triad Trainer
Triads everywhere on the neck — every key, every inversion, closed and open voicings, and along a single string.
-
With the course
Nucleus Patterns
Adam's five boxes and the joins between them, in every key — the spine of The Best Minor Pentatonic Course.
Build
Draw what you know, hear what you write.
-
Membership
Fretboard Diagrams
Build any chord voicing or fretboard map Adam teaches, and lay them out into practice sheets you can print, share and hand to a student.
-
Free
The Progression Lab
Write any chord progression and hear it played back — with a strum pattern, swing, and a drummer behind you.
How they fit together
Tune with the tuner. Set a feel on the metronome and leave it running. Learn a position in the Scale Trainer, find the triads inside it with the Triad Trainer, hear the intervals with the Interval Trainer, and if you own The Best Minor Pentatonic Course, join the boxes with the Nucleus Patterns. Draw what you learned in Fretboard Diagrams so it is on paper. Write the progression you want to play in the Progression Lab and hear it before your hands can.
The tuner and the metronome are free. A free account opens the other tunings, the drum kit and the key of C in the trainers. The membership opens everything, including the diagram maker and the Progression Lab, alongside the live classes and the workshop library.
