Detailed Information

 


(Songwriting, Engineering & Recording Instruction is also available. Contact me for details)

We will utilize every tool possible so that you reach your full potential. We won't waste your time on cheesy books that really don't teach you anything useful. Working together, we will help you refine and define your talents, and help you play the way you want to play.

I have seen more often than not, so called teachers who are glad to take your hard earned money, but are unreliable and not  dedicated to getting  personally involved in order to help you. Now you have discovered a true professional who cares about your needs. We will work together to qualify your needs, and build a custom course of action that is best for you, by developing your talents through any or all of the the following information, as found in the table at the bottom of this page.  

We can also help you to record your own demo tapes in our production studio, so that you can keep a record of your progress, play for your family and friends, or develop a professional recording to help you with your career. We can do this for those of you who play in a concert or marching band, home alone as a hobby, or for those of you pursuing a professional career in a band too!

I  have tons of professional equipment that we will use to help you learn. Guitars, Amps, and other instruments (Bass Guitar, Drum tools, Keyboards and more!) along with a lot of recording equipment and  computers to help you. I can provide you with things to help you with on your computer as well as numerous sources found only on the Internet. We use all of these tools and more in order to build your confidence, knowledge and skill so you can realize your creative vision. It is a very fun and rewarding way of learning.
