At Guitar with Brent, our mission is simple: Create educational content that inspires each individual's unique creative abilities.

As creatives, we understand that when inspiration strikes, having a clear and efficient path to capture that inspiration is crucial. Our courses are designed to provide that clarity and guidance, ensuring you always know where to look when you need it most.

We believe music education is crucial, and not just for future musicians. Studying music builds discipline and confidence while encouraging creativity and self-expression. Our goal is to revitalize music education by making it more accessible, economical, and engaging than ever before.

What You Will Learn

Throughout our courses, you will learn various techniques to add to your creative toolkit. While building a solid foundation in music theory and other fundamentals is essential, our primary focus is on fostering true creative expression. As artists, creativity should always come first. There's an old saying in jazz circles: "Learn it, then forget it." This means mastering techniques so thoroughly that they become second nature, allowing your creativity to flow unimpeded. Our goal is to help you achieve this effortless integration of skill and creativity.

Why Choose Us?

With over 20 years of experience as a professional musician, I have had the privilege of working alongside many top producers and writers in the industry. Some of these musicians have had extensive formal training, while others have been entirely self-taught. What unites them is their ability to channel their creativity effectively. At Guitar with Brent, we draw from this diverse pool of experience to offer you practical, real-world insights and techniques.

Join us and take the next step in your musical journey. Whether you're a beginner looking to build a strong foundation or an experienced musician seeking to expand your creative horizons, our courses are designed to inspire and empower you.

"Putting children in creative environments that that challenge their minds is the quickest way to self discovery."

Hi, I’m Brent Paschke


Founder and creator of Guitar with Brent. I'm a 2x Grammy award-winning guitarist, producer, songwriter, and educator based in Los Angeles, California. I’m best known for my work with the production duo The Neptunes/N.E.R.D. (Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo), having collaborated with them since 2001.

I've always been passionate about music education and enjoy using innovative, fun, and creative tools to make learning an exciting experience. My overarching goal when building educational content is straightforward – to create lessons that inspire creativity.

As creatives, when inspiration strikes, we ideally want a clear path to capture that inspiration as quickly and efficiently as possible. And if that path isn't clear, we at least want an idea of where to look. 

The courses on Guitar with Brent are all designed to keep you in the creative process while learning concepts and tools to add to your creative toolkit. I don't want this to be a process of simply learning techniques. Instead, the lessons focus on how to use these techniques to enhance your creative process and flow when creating.
