About

What sets the Modern Guitar Pathway apart is Tom's personalized, performance-driven approach to guitar development. Drawing on decades of experience as a professional guitarist, bassist, producer, and educator, Tom goes beyond traditional lessons to help you truly understand music, master your instrument, and develop your own creative voice. Rather than following a one-size-fits-all curriculum, Tom builds a structured pathway around your goals, combining technique, music theory, improvisation, and real-world application to transform how you think, play, and express yourself as a musician.

Thoroughly enjoying my lessons with Tom! Sometimes, they are free-flow; sometimes, they are focused. He has a good idea of how much to give me to work on each week, and the structure of the lessons works well.

Tom is an accomplished, and very pleasant musician with lots of ability and knowledge. He is able to simplify concepts so that I am beginning to know a set of chords so that I can play a song on my ukelele, which is my goal. Perfect!!

Tommy has been an excellent teacher. He mixes just the right amount of theory into the lessons when it is appropriate to explain what we are working on. He is also very personable and easy to work with. I can honestly say it was a great find when I found Tommy.

Only had one lesson so far but Tommy was great very personable and took the time to figure out what I wanted to learn and did not just start at page 1 of some music book, anyone can do that.

He is also very professional organized and up to date with use of 21st century technology and great organization. Too many times in fields like this do people fail to keep up with the times and find innovative ways of connecting with their customers. Not Tommy.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing varies per service. So do my hours. Weekends and evenings are available for recording or performances. Session availability upon request.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to address my customers goals immediately and then share a few plans that may work best for them.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
In addition to obtaining a degree in music I am constantly checking the Billboard Charts and other major Top lists for the latest releases and productions. Reading about recent artist releases helps me stay on top of what's happening in the industry. I am also constantly transcribing music and analyzing. All of this helps me gain greater depth in my perspective in music and ability to share it. Most importantly - always learning new music and keeping on top of my practicing!
