Home / News / Fender is now offering three free months of its Fender Play app

Here at Stuff, we enthusiastically endorse you attending to all the Netflix box-sets you’ve been putting off during the long weeks of social distancing. You’ve never had a better excuse.

But equally, we think now represents a great time to learn a new skill that doesn’t involve going outside and breathing all over your fellow humans.

Fender agrees. And right now it’s offering new users a free three-month subscription to its exclusively online learning platform, Fender Play.

Plucking great

The app teaches you how to play guitar, bass and ukulele through slickly-produced, instructor-guided videos. You’ll have to bring your own axe to lessons, but the platform features content for everyone from total newbies, to lapsed players in need of a bit of a refresher.

Once you’ve picked your preferred genre, Fender Play will create you a personalised, guiding learning path, and tracks your progress along the way.

You’ll probably need to extend beyond three months (the usual cost of a subscription is £9.99 per month, or £89.99 per year) if you’re serious about becoming the next Clapton, but this is a brilliant way of getting started.

To get the app, visit FenderPlay.com or download from the App Store or Google Play. Input your email and you’ll receive a code to redeem your membership. Be sure to check your browser settings. You may need to temporarily disable ad blockers to see the code.

About

I'm fascinated by all things tech, but if you were going to leave me on a desert island, I'd probably ask for my Nintendo Switch, a drone, and a pair of noise-cancelling cans to block out the relentless seagull racket. When I'm not on Stuff duty you'll probably find me subscribing to too many podcasts, playing too many video games, or telling anyone who will listen that Harry Kane is never going to leave Spurs.
