Jeremy C. says, "I recently began lessons with James and I could not be happier! I have been aimlessly noodling on the guitar for the last 30 years or so and had become frustrated and bored with my lack of knowledge and direction. I've had 3 lessons so far and I can confidently say that my love for playing has been rekindled! James is knowledgeable, encouraging, and enthusiastic. There is a huge difference between being good at something and knowing how to TEACH that thing, and it is very apparent that James is a teacher, rather than just someone who can play. Don't get me wrong though, James can PLAY! Having a teacher with structured plans has been so much more valuable than watching random, disjointed youtube lessons, like I had been doing. James is meeting me where I am, and pacing the lessons so that I have plenty to take home and chew on without feeling lost or overwhelmed. Prior to my first lesson, I emailed him an overview of my playing history and what I wanted to learn, and we wasted no time and jumped right in. He has easily answered my barrage of questions in a way that I can truly understand, and I'm starting to wrap my mind around music theory in ways that I never thought I would be able to. Now I think about guitar all the time! I look forward to practicing and I pick up my guitar whenever I get a few minutes. Aside from his playing and teaching abilities, James is just a solid guy. I was admittedly a little intimidated demonstrating my skills in our first meeting, but all of my insecurities were immediately assuaged by his friendliness, and we clicked right off the bat. Outside of lessons, James is very communicative via text and flexible with scheduling. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone wanting to learn or improve at guitar!"See more

I live in the Virginia Beach area and provide instruction in both acoustic and electric guitar for all ages and abilities. I have studio space in Virginia Beach, and I offer online and in-house instruction and, I can come to you for a nominal fee. My experience as a musician consists of having played the guitar for the Army Band, as well as various local,regional, and national acts, to include performing at Woodstock and numerous other Festivals. I have worked with classic rock, jazz, country,Bluegrass, classical and contemporary musicians. I also have vast experience doing session work in recording studios, and work in composition and arranging. We offer music education for those with developmental disabilities in multiple instruments as well. I run a recording studio and also provide a portable and virtual recording system. We offer mixing and mastering as well, but not limited to, providing professional grade mixing,mastering,mixing and mastering lessons. Studio rates are determined by estimating the amount of recording time, amount of instrumentation required and amount of time needed for mixing tracks and mastering an overall product. We can project rates by the song, or by considering the full project. Our group also provides solo, duet and full band entertainment for practically any type of event in practically any location. We are happy to accommodate specific musical requests. We have male and female vocalists that play guitar, keys, drums, and bass, and an infinite array of musicians to play just about any type of genre. We can conform to your needs. No matter how intimate or large your event is, we can provide acoustic or all electric musical configuration. We have the sound systems and can access lighting. The greatest reward as a teacher is seeing a student "finally getting it." The joy on their face reminds me of why I love my job. The greatest reward in the studio is providing a product that pleases my clients. The greatest reward in performing is sharing the joy of music with others. I look forward to speaking with you soon and helping you achieve your musical goals!!See more
