With high-quality Dean Markley strings and a fun introductory method, new players will be well-positioned to succeed and keep playing their guitar.

Based in Helsinki, Finland, Musopia saw the opportunity to reach a wider audience by teaming up with Dean Markley in the USA, the birthplace of modern guitar in popular music. Throughout the decades, countless hits have been written with four simple chords, and true to its name, FourChords is a program that offers a proven instruction method that gets first-timers playing popular tunes on guitar right away. The platform has simplified chords for more than 1,500 songs, and teaches beginners strum patterns and tempo control.

“We are happy to team up with Musopia and provide aspiring musicians a revolutionary new way to learn, improve and master guitar playing in a fun and easy environment,” said Lori McCallian, CEO of Dean Markley.

Whether a new player has an heirloom acoustic or a brand-new electric off the showroom wall, a fresh set of stings can make all the difference in the world when playing. Now players ahave an added incentive to reach for Dean Markley’s Blue Steel, Blackhawk Coated and Signature Series strings, knowing they have free access to an easy-to-use mobile app that will teach chords and progressions.

According to Musopia, a reported 90% of entry-level players quit within the first year. FourChords’ proven method of teaching songs right away helps stem that quit rate, and 83% of FourChords users report that it helps them to continue learning the guitar. Combine that success with Dean Markley’s break-resistant strings that stand the test of time with true tone and provide an extra confidence boost for beginners. That “summer fling” is about to turn into a long-term relationship!
