Ben Woolman

Welcome. This channel is here to help you grow as a guitarist in a way that’s clear, practical and within reach.

Everything I share is based on three key ideas: to inspire, to educate and to encourage. Whether you’re new to fingerstyle guitar or have been playing for years, my mission is simple: to help you make steady, meaningful progress - one revelation at a time.

I’m Ben Woolman, a guitarist, composer, instructor and lifelong student of the instrument. I’ve released 12 recordings, contributed music to film, published educational materials, and my work has reached listeners in more than 50 countries. You may have heard my music on SiriusXM, NPR, TV, video games or across streaming platforms, where it has been played more than 40 million times.

If you want to improve your technique, expand your musical voice or simply enjoy the craft of fingerstyle guitar, you’re in the right place.

Thanks for hanging out.
