Hey guys, I hear so often that people don't understand why the HPCrazy Guitar Academy does not have that big traffic as some guys out there think it would be worth. Well the truth is - there is a lot of competion out there in the net and there are companies, teams or groups who probably have more man-power then I do have. I am a one man company and I am doing everything myself - even this website. Well it's a CMS by invision power board but still I do all the maintainance, the promotion and the content creation including the production of the backing tracks myself. You probably now see the problem - I can not be everywhere - the main problem is that I don't have the time for the promotion, the sharing of posts in social media or other websites or guitar communities and and and. So if you would like to help this community to grow you can help by doing some sharing of posts or videos or whatever. Any help is most welcome. But here are some good news - I feel like the community in fact is growing day by day in a slow manner but it's always growing. With your help it might grow faster.... so it's up to you to help. I do what I can do.

Hey guys, I want to make the Guitar Students Club to the center of our small guitar community here. So if you have any suggestions, requests or comments please let me know what you guys think, or what is on your mind. Tutorial Requests It's always hard for me to find topics for upcoming tutorials since there are many things which I don't know and I often don't have so much time for research and stuff like that. If you want to help me to find topics for new tutorials please let me know. I only have one condition - it has to be somehow a popular topic or a topic which might be in the interest of the majority of students - but also sometimes topics which are rare might also be fun. So if you have any ideas or requests - please let me know.
