About Spencer D.
Hi, I have been playing guitar since I was 12 years old. I have been teaching professionally for 17 years. I have been teaching online lessons for the past 5 years. I have taught hundreds of students of all ages and experience levels. I currently play in 2 bands as well as solo work and I typically play around 120 gigs per year. I have an AS in Fine Arts Music and I teach a college level beginning guitar class. I enjoy playing and teaching all styles of music, rock, pop, metal, jazz, blues, country, classical. I read music and chord charts. I am confident that I have some knowledge to share with you and that I can help you to reach your goals on guitar!

Spencer's amazing

Spence is a great teacher who’s taught for many years.I have been with Spence for a year. I am 71 years old and was unsure I could start at this age. He is a calm and encouraging teacher with infinite knowledge and teaching skills. Under his guidance I am playing songs, transposing basic keys, strumming, and getting into a little bit of music theory, something that was completely foreign to me. He is the kind of instructor that makes you eager to practice and to show him what you have accomplished In between lessons. I had the chance to watch him perform in one of his two groups, and he does all the fancy riffs. Finding Spence has made my guitar playing a great new adventure!

Spencer worked hard with me to become a better player on acoustic, electric guitar and bass guitar. From music theory to ear training he did it all. I would not be the musician I am today without his help. Knowledgeable in every form of music, jazz to heavy metal, to reading sheet music and tabs. He’s also just super friendly and easy to work with. Became a good friend too!
