About
Whether you are just starting out, or you are a more advanced player looking to improve your skills, I can help you achieve your goals. I tailor each student's lessons to his/her needs and interests. You will learn the guitar and have a good time doing it! I am a working musician with years of experience in performing, writing, and recording. I offer instruction in electric, acoustic, rhythm, lead, and slide guitar. Styles include rock, pop, blues, country, and more. Lessons are available at our Solana Beach and San Diego studios. I am approved to work in the San Diego Unified School District and the Del Mar Union School District. I have taught group guitar classes in both districts. I was voted Guitar Player of the Year for 1996 by the California Country Music Association San Diego Chapter.

I've been taking guitar lessons from Joe for several months now and am really happy with him. He’s knowledgeable, is a very skilled guitarist and is very motivating. He’s focused on building technical skills while at the same time making sure that you're having fun doing it. His attitude is that if it’s not fun, you won't practice, and if you don't practice, you won't learn. I highly recommend him to anyone who is seriously interested in learning guitar.

"I visited the Norwood Music Studios southern location at their studio in San Diego, CA. Virginia's husband, Joe Norwood is quite an accomplished guitarist and my favored guitar instructor. I have been playing guitar for years and have only progressed to a decent level. Under instruction of Joe Norwood, a new door of achievement has been tapped into. Joe as an instructor teaches what other guitar instructors don't. ( How to play the guitar as an extension of your body.) A new world has opened up for me. I strongly recommend Joe as an instructor for all levels of guitar playing. Since my six months of studying with Joe, I have been able to work my fingers for lead work which has improved under Joe's instruction. He offers what many other past guitar teachers of mine have not. I highly recommend Norwood Studios for guitar and other music instruction!!! "

Joe is the best teacher, musician and human being that could possibly be given to a fellow student. when I started I had no timing, Joe worked magic and patience and before I new it I was actually playing!! Playing and tapping with the beat.. If you really want to learn to play guitar, Joe is your man..
