                     Guitar tuition in Clitheroe and the Ribble Valley


If you live in or around this area and need some guitar tuition I would love to hear from you. The first lesson is free, and you see if what I have to offer is what you are looking for.

                                                                   

                                                     Below  you will see some video of me playing.


Learning to play the guitar is an exiting exercise that will bring you fulfilment. You will be able to join in with like minded people and make new musical friends,and you will never be bored! as there is always something new to master on your instrument. Right now your enthusiasm is your greatest asset so let’s hang on to that.


Now right away let me say to you don’t be anxious about how musical or not musical you think you may be. At this stage no one can say how adept you will be at mastering your instrument.Take your time you will get there.


I would like to emphasise to you my approach to tuition, it is not so much about the amount of practice you do, but how you practice. Playing the guitar is both mental, and physical. To sit repeating things over and over can be quite inappropriate to this new skill. Results will come from practicing in the right way.

I can show you a step by step approach based on my 15 years professional experience of performing live, and recording, various styles of music. It also important to feel that what you are learning is what you feel enthusiastic about, your personal taste. It has to be fun! O.K here are some videos of me playing.

The blues is a good starting point for learning some technique. The reason is it has a simple structure, so we can  work on rhythm and timing, and, repetition is in the nature of popular music.  The blues structure does all this well.

As your technique develops we can move on into the styles that you particularly like. It may be finger picking folk music, it may be heavy metal, it may be blues and jazz, what ever does it for you.
