About
Professional guitarist with over 45 years of stage experience is accepting students. If you are a new player, I will get you up and playing quickly. If are an intermediate, I will show you the skills necessary to continue an upward momentum. It is my belief that the best way to learn is to concentrate on the music and songs you love, and we will learn about scales and techniques within those songs as needed. In addition, I have been hosting a weekly jam at a local bar and grill for the past seven years, and if performing live on stage with a professional backup, house lights and sound is something you would like to do, we can arrange it when you are ready.

I am very happy with Craig as a teacher. He comes prepared to our lessons. Always looking for new things to push me to improve my skills. He listens and takes the time to understand my needs as a student. He clearly has a lot of practical guitar knowledge and is able to translate it into simple terms that I can understand.

Craigs a great teacher, he's really good at explaining guitar and helped me get the hang of things starting off as a newbie. He'll teach you the songs you want to learn and makes it fun.

Reached out to setup lessons and everything was good to go, he said message him 2 weeks before wanting to start to book the Tuesday I wanted. Well I messaged him twice now over a two weeks span and he’s totally ghosted me. He’s active on his fb indicating playing in shows so I’m guessing he’s just not dependable as a teacher.

Details: 10 - 13 years old • No formal training; some self-taught experience • No, cannot read music • Electric • What the teacher recommends • Yes, the student has an instrument • 60 minutes • My home, venue, etc.
