    (3)
    With over 10 years of professional experience, I offer respect, trust, dedication, integrity and devotion to exceeding the expectations of my customers - I'll give you everything I've got, every time! I studied Jazz at the University of North Texas (with honors) and have experience in performing and teaching many styles of music in great depth. I have an advanced level of understanding in music theory, composition, and arranging. I spend extra time (longer lessons, phone calls, etc...) with clients to make sure they're completely satisfied with my services. I will personally work with you during private guitar lessons to improve your guitar performance and make you the artist that you would like to be. ​ If you are interested in acquiring my services as a music teacher and guitarist or if you would like to learn more about what I can do for you, go ahead and contact me for more information.

    I had to learn a few tunes on guitar for mother's day, so I called Justin Walker Music. At first, I only wanted to know a few tabs and how to read/play them, but after a couple of weeks, I was learning chord progressions and proper picking techniques. I was provided simple, easy to understand steps that took my playing where I wanted to go and more. I'll continue taking lessons because of the inspiration for growth I've found within.

    One of the best out there Justin is an amazing instructor. After only a few months, he was able to guide me to a place where I could play much more complex music than I ever thought I could. Other teachers I've had may have taken a longer road to present me with the challenges that Justin has presented me with, however a great teacher is not afraid to see their students excel as quickly as possible. Justin has always challenged me to be my best in a positive and supportive way. He comes across as a teacher who genuinely cares about my success as a guitar player and he has the knowledge and ability to help me take steps much more confidently and quickly than I myself thought I could. He has always been patient and extremely encouraging, and I would highly recommend him for anyone who wants to begin playing or wants to improve their skills on guitar.
