My guitar lessons with Lane have been nothing short of wonderful. Lane is knowledgeable, patient, kind and such a joy! I've been studying with Lane for a little over a year now and I can now play music that I've wanted to play for years. I cannot recommend him highly enough!

I've just had an excellent experience with Lane. He is so patient with me and explains things very very well. I definitely would not be playing guitar as well as I am without Lane. Highly recommend!!!

My son has been studying with Lane for almost a year now, and I cannot believe how much he has improved!! Lane is patient and kind, and makes the lessons so enjoyable. My son is always so motivated and excited for his next lesson, and practices every week without me telling him to! We have also been to a couple of Lane's gigs and he is a very talented player-we are so lucky to have a teacher like him and I cannot recommend him highly enough!!

FAQs

• What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

  My rates are very reasonable and affordable, and they are based on the length of the lesson. I offer 50% off the first trial lesson.

• What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

  I try and find out everything I can about the customer and tell them a little about myself so that they feel comfortable walking into the first lesson. I like to hear about what motivated them to want to take lessons, what they are looking to accomplish by taking lessons, short/long term goals, etc. I give lessons once a week, although a few of my students request lessons twice a week.

• How did you get started doing this type of work?

  I started out on the double bass when I was very young, but soon became attracted to the bass guitar. I was never forced into it, and I was always very motivated to learn on my own. I've developed my own technique over the years that I have found to be effective not just for me, but also for my students. I guess I've never really considered it to be "work," although I do believe that hard work is a lot of what goes into becoming good at what you do.
