Justin Moss - Guitar Teacher
Justin Moss has been playing the guitar since he was sixteen-years-old and started teaching full-time not long after that.
His unique and effective method for learning guitar has led to many successes with private guitar students and thousands more around the world with his series of Learn Guitar Courses.
“The guitar is a fantastic instrument,” Justin often says, “it encompasses every style of music, can generate any emotion, and is as pleasurable to play as it is to listen to.”
Many years on, Justin is as passionate about the guitar today as he was when he first picked it up, and still plays every day and regularly performs live at venues and private parties in New Zealand.
I have written and put together 6 books in total.
2 books in the “Learn Guitar” series which teach an absolute beginner how to play with a step by step guided approach
1 book in the soon to be added to “Transcription” series which is a complete ste of tabs, playing notes, and backgrouns information behind all 8 tracks in the acoustic album “Summer Jam”
And new in 2024 the 3 books in the “Performance” series which have 2 volumes of “25 Amazing Pieces for Fingerstyle Guitar”, and a 3rd book which has 100 of the best songs to sing and play to a live audience.

The LEARN GUITAR series have 80 videos which are indexed throughout the books. Each time a lesson has an accompanying video the reader is invited to take a look for more information. All the videos on Youtube refer to which book title, chapter, session, and individual lesson they apply to.
The new PERFORMANCE series of books has Youtube videos showing Justin performing the fingerstyle pieces, or for the 100 Songs to Play LIVE there are complete backing tracks with bass and drums for the songs. Many of the backing tracks are recordings of the actual bass player Duncan and drummer Jono from Justin’s covers band “Lapse of Reason” – they were recorded for a bit of fun, but then proved to be an invaluable for Justin to enjoy playing some solo gigs and sharing with his students also.
The TRANSCRIPTION book Summer Jam is a complete transcription of the 8 pieces released on the 2016 album Summer Jam, which is available on CD, Spotify, YouTube Music, Amazon, Apple, or any other major music retailer.
