WIP: MY STORY V1
When the Traditional Way of Learning Guitar is not working…
You Need a New Way
I learned the scales, licks, theory and watched countless YouTube tutorials.
And technically… Yes, I was improving, but my playing felt stale, repetitive, and boring.
I realized that I was slowly losing my passion for the guitar…
And this began to not only affect my confidence as a musician but also as a person in general.
The “traditional” practice model simply wasn’t working for me.
And I was in desperate need of a new way of learning and playing that was more authentic and personalized.
A way that doesn’t require you to do the same exact things that everyone else is doing, so I wouldn’t end up sounding just like everyone else.
I wanted to create my own stuff.
I wanted to take everything I loved about music and do my own thing, inspired by my favorite artists and my favorite songs.
If I was ever going to play the way I wanted to, I knew I had to flip everything upside down.
So one night, I sat down with a piece of paper, and asked myself…
What do I love about the guitar?
What elements of the guitar give me the most results and fulfillment as a musician?
I decided to focus on these 3 things:
PLAYING SOULFUL MUSIC
getting clear on who I was and the music I loved
CHORD MELODY
connecting the fretboard through beautiful chords and melodies
SONG-BASED LEARNING
find a unique way to play my favorite instrumental elements of the songs I loved
So I went all in, obsessively trying to learn and embrace this new approach …
It didn't feel like practice because I tapped into deep creative flow states, making more progress in days than I had in months.
I was playing music from the inside out, not getting hung up on technical details.
I just focused on learning the soulful chord melodies and elements from songs I loved.
This allowed me to apply everything to the fretboard in a creative and artistic way.
The technical stuff fell into place effortlessly.
I never seemed to run out of creative ideas, even when playing covers.
The guitar became a tool for my expression.
My sound was full, versatile, and entirely my own.
And the music naturally morphed into my unique sound.
I realized I tapped into something special!
A new way…
The "CGM METHOD"
was born

❌ Playing broken up ideas that don’t go anywhere
The New Way (CGM Method)
✅ Less technical learning and more creative expression
✅ Collapse your timeline with a focused method
✅ Unlocking the fretboard with soulful chords and melodies
✅ Step-by-step system for chord progressions and arrangements
✅ Clear roadmap, accountability, and professional mentorship

CMG SUCCESS STORY
FROM PLAYING BROKEN UP IDEAS…
TO RECORDING ORIGINAL ARRANGEMENTS
Nat A. was able to make this arrangement after only 2 months of using the CGM method
WHO AM I TO TELL YOU THIS?
The more I shared and taught the process of the music I was making from this method, the more people started to take notice and reach out asking “how are you doing this?!”
I’ve had players like Tim Henson (Polyphia) and Adam Hann (The 1975), reaching out wanting to learn my process and style…
I was mentioned in the “Neo-Soul Guitar Book” as one of the top five unique players for this genre…
I ended up amassing over 130K followers on social media through posting my guitar style and arrangements.
I got the opportunity to tour around the world.
Playing in front of crowds of 20,000 people.
Sharing the stage and opening up for artists like…Drake, Chris Brown, Zach Brown Band.
I wrote songs with over 100 million plays on Spotify.
I did musical direction for live sets that have received almost 20 million plays.
Being in the studio, playing on records, and writing songs for Artists like…
DOMINIK FIKE, MASEGO, TORY LANEZ, ANUEL AA, ALINA BARAZ, ROLE MODEL, TRIPPIE REDD, RAVEENA, TREY SONGZ, AND MANY MORE…
SONG CREDITS
And because I kept getting more and more messages from guitarists wanting to learn my process and style
I decided to finally create a blueprint that other musicians can follow to get the same results I did
