Professional guitarist and tutor with over 30 years' experience, gives lessons from a private studio. All ages, levels and styles

I have over 30 years' professional playing and teaching experience. Classically trained at an early age I did the usual school and local show performances eventually forming my first rock band at around age 10. At age 18 I made my way to the States hoping to find fame and fortune...I didn't. However, I found enough work to make a living. I played in various bands and also did some session work. This is also where I discovered my love for teaching. Having returned to the UK I ended up playing in several bands throughout the 80s and 90s and I also started teaching from my own private studio. These days my main focus is teaching which I love with a passion. I don't like being labelled as a particular type of guitarist. I love playing, teaching and listening to all kinds of music and not just guitar music. Anything that involves real instruments and has a nice melody I will always enjoy. As someone once said...there are only two types of music...Good and Bad and sometimes the bad can be good!
