Ben knows his stuff...very pleasant. I've made another appointment.
Fantastic instructor. Ben started at the basic foundational instruction (including how best to hold the pick) and together we built a custom practice outline that has helped me to achieve my goals.
Awesome first lesson! Looking forward to many more.
