The Blues is the foundation of all modern American Music. Knowing the blues idiom is essential for all acoustic and electric guitarists. Knowledge of blues form and improvisation is essential for all jazz and rock guitarists.

My lessons are catered to the individual student. Typically half of the session is spent on technique/fretboard harmony and the other half is spent on learning music/songs. I have found it is best for younger students (12 and under) to learn from a book - for added structure).

If you want to get what you paid for and are committed to learn guitar at your own pace in sessions which are personalized to your desires and preference, look no further.

If you're tired of:
- Over-paying for guitar lessons
- Not being listened to or taught differently than what you want to learn
- Trying out guitar lessons and finding yourself experiencing learning frustrations which are impeding your growth as a musician,

Let me help you achieve your goals as a guitarist, fix your frustrations, or simply help you start at the beginning. We go at your pace, not mine. These lessons are for you. Your preferences dictate the lessons, and I am here to help you along.

I've got 12 years of experience in both acoustic and electric guitar, performing experience, basic working knowledge of music theory, an extensive repertoire of music, and the drive and patience to help you on your musical endeavors.

Whether you want to learn guitar basics, simple tunes, solo improvisation/rock riffs,

My goal is help the student reach their personal goals by giving them the tools and techniques to do so.
