Learning to play the blues is essential for every guitar player! Not only will you learn to create amazing solos, but your time investment will make your place among the descendants of all the great blues players of the 20th century. We will learn to read sheet music, play chords, and the blues scales in addition to some neat tips and tricks. Stevie (Ray Vaughan) will be proud of you! Please feel free to use the "Ask a question" feature. Thank you!

Learn the chords, scales and techniques you need to play Blues Guitar. We will use songs you want to learn and a combination of my own material, videos, jam tracks and other's existing material as appropriate to meet your goals.

I teach every student the technical skills and applied theory necessary to work in any contemporary style on guitar. I use the "Be better than you have to be" approach. Want to be the best on a bad day? Be better than your chosen style requires. I studied classical and jazz in order to excel at rock, folk and blues.
You will learn to read music and charts for guitar, as well as movable scale patterns, movable chord forms, and how to apply it all to master the fretboard.
Have you hit a road block? I can help. Are you brand new and want to be sure you understand the instrument completely? I can help.
For those who wish to combine subjects, I also have a 90 minute lesson option. The more time you spend, the less you pay per minute. I have adult students who spend as much as two hours at a time with me.

I am dedicated to help inspire students to achieve their goals in songwriting, vocals, guitar and performance. I have hands on practical experience in the music industry on a professional level and I feel this can be very beneficial to aspiring songwriters and musicians alike.

Guitar lessons in my private Studio in downtown San Jose. I have toured around the world with bands such as Guns N Roses, Dokken, Michael Angelo Batio, Ratt and Metallica. I have studio experience. Over 20+ experience in teaching, touring and recording.
I specialize in rock, metal, blues, acoustic, classical and pop music. I can teach beginners how to start correctly yet learn fast from techniques I developed myself and learned from guitar masters such as Joe Satriani, John Mayer, Stave Vai and George lynch themselves. I can also teach advanced techniques, artist development, live and gear consultation.

Practical but professional.
I teach in a way that any student can connect with the composer/musician inside them via practical knowledge.

Are you looking for a great guitar teacher who will push you to be your best self? Students who take lessons with me are given specialized curriculums to suit their personal guitar goals and make sure they get the most out of their money. Lessons with me are slightly different because of my background. I started out playing classical guitar and this has shaped my guitar learning experiences, which in turn changed the way I teach. I come at things from a musical theory standpoint, with precision and a focus on improvement through better technique and a solid foundation in the basics. Send me a message and we can start learning together!

Born and raised in Chicago, I have been around great Blues men since I could walk. My grandfather was a harmonica player on the South Shore, and every weekend I would listen to him play with the other musicians in the area, and I developed a natural love for rhythm and the culture that came with the Blues. When I was about 13 I was able to get into bars (I was tall, and if you behaved yourself and bought a few drinks, the doormen looked the other way), but Buddy Guy's "LEGENDS" club, The Wild Hare, The Checkerboard Lounge (where Muddy Waters last played with the Rolling Stones), and many others soon became my weekend hangouts. I was playing piano, drums, and guitar from an early age, and later left for Los Angeles where I got a contract with Virgin records. It was electronic music, but I still played a lot of guitar on it and have been featured in Guitar Magazine, Keyboard, Rolling Stone, Spin, NME, and many others. I won the California Music Awards, was nominated for a Los Angeles ...
