The caliber of talent that we stumble upon can be staggering–and often we find ourselves thinking, “if this musician would only get some widespread exposure, they would garner untold legions of devoted disciples.” And we’re sure plenty of you feel the same way! Simply put, there are hoards of amazing players that unfortunately go overlooked by the bulk of us.
Now our sister site, Gear Gods, is teaming up with JamPlay to change that. Are you a guitar wizard? Do fans hang out as you warm up before a gig, just to watch your fingers move? And can you impart those teachings to your disciples? Because JamPlay may want you to be their next instructor.
Here’s how the contest works: Create one short video lesson (2-5 minutes in length), upload it to your YouTube channel, and then paste it into the entry form on Gear Gods.
Now take note, they want to be wowed by more than your sick skills. JamPlay are looking for their next instructor, after all. If all they wanted were ill sweeping skills they’d be hiring a janitor. Your lesson should be distilled tutorial perfection: informative, concise, interesting, personable, and if you can put your own unique stamp on it then go for it (but please no gimmicks).
The Gear Gods editorial staff will select a batch of the best submissions, and then turn them over to their readership, who will select the victor. JamPlay will bring that winner to their Colorado headquarters where he or she will have their lessons professionally filmed and hosted on the service, next to guitar gods like Tosin Abasi, Emil Werstler, and Bumblefoot.
Gear Gods will be accepting submissions through the end of the month, and then they turn the best of the best to face reader judgement on September 15th. So what are you waiting for? Enter now!
