Cole C.
"I usually wouldn’t take the time to write back, but Pickup is worth taking a few seconds. I can’t say enough positive things about the content and how enjoyable it is to use."
Joe F.
"Arianna Powell's Master Class also gave me the tools to arrange chord melodies of my favorite tunes in half the time it used to take me. I finished the class feeling excited and ready to apply what I learned, rather than exhausted by theory overload."
Ahmad S.
"My experience at Pickup Music has been great so far. I constantly have the site open whenever I sit down for a guitar session - it helps me organize my path to learning the instrument."
