BAND LEVEL

If you’ve already mastered the basics of social playing you are now ready for the next step. More advanced skills are needed to handle the demands of band playing, particularly if you are looking to audition for bands, rather than just casually play with friends.
At this level I generally teach more advanced chords and techniques on a style by style basis; and begin working on lead guitar skills, practical theory, technique, ear training, and listening skills.

At this level I concentrate on exposing the student to the unique rhythm styles involved in a wide variety of commercial styles i.e. Blues, Funk, Soul, Hard rock/Metal, Reggae, Pop/Top 40 etc. Once a student develops an interest in a certain genre I tend to explore their interest in more depth.


LEAD GUITAR

I help you learn all of the scales licks and tricks that will allow you to play a wide variety of styles i.e. Blues, Classic Rock, Metal/Hard Rock, Southern Rock, Latin Rock, Jazz Fusion, and a wide variety of other styles. The emphasis for players at this level will be learning the correct techniques and skills needed to achieve virtuoso level playing; High level Theory, Pentatonic and Modal scales, and Ear training.

Some of the guitarists/styles I'm familiar with include:

SRV, JOE BONAMASSA, GARRY MORE, SANTANA, DAVID GILMORE, YNGIE MALMSTEEN, JOE SATRIANI, ROBBEN FORD, LARRY CARLTON, DUKE ROBILLIARD, AL DIMEOLA, JOHN McLAUGHLIN, FRANK GAMBALE, ALVIN LEE, ERIC CLAPTON, JOHNNY WINTER, BB KING, SCOTT HENDERSON, DICKIE BETTS, RORY GALLAGER, BUDDY GUY, DUANE ALLMAN , RITCHIE BLACKMORE, MICHAEL SCHENKER, PAUL GILBERT, ANGUS YOUNG, JIMMY PAGE, STEVE VAI, ANDY TIMMONS, ERIC JOHNSON and many more.


CAREER ORIENTATED

Generally people who are thinking about being involved in the music industry in a serious way have already been playing for a while.

When you come to me for this kind of advice I do a number of things for you.

I assess and critique your playing, and talk to you about what you hope to achieve; and what interests you. I also give you an idea as to what the professional industry requires, and where you stand in relation to that standard. We then work out a study plan together to help you achieve this goa
