    About Michael H.

    4.8
    (17)
    Along with being a songwriter, performer, and recording artist, I have more than 40 years of teaching electric and acoustic guitar in all styles and levels, specializing in rock, metal, and shred! We can focus on technique, reading music in standard or tablature, music theory, improvisation, or simply learning your favorite songs. The bottom line is making sure you meet your musical goals! *** Lesson Details *** I will begin your lessons by pinpointing exactly what you wish to focus on, then devise an organized plan so that we can maximize our progress. It's all about YOU! *** Studio Equipment *** I always have an amp in my teaching studio (although it's not mandatory that you play through it), and extra guitars if you're not able to bring yours. I can also play CDs or mp3s on the spot to learn your favorite songs, and I have complete and accurate tablature to thousands of songs, all alphabetized! *** Specialties *** I excel in teaching lead techniques - specifically alternate picking for speed and sweep picking for arpeggios - I can definitely help you reach your maximum potential on these techniques, among others. I also excel in the repertoire of acoustic and electric rock songs that I can teach you. I am patient as well, so we can progress at your level.

    The best of the best! This man can shred and teach you everything about guitar, equipment and recording. Extremely patient and cool. I suggest the 10 lesson package to really absorb his knowledge.
