Introduction: I like to give not just theory, principles, and rhetoric of playing guitar, but PRACTICAL application and "real-world" knowledge. YOU are the instrument...the guitar is just the mechanism. I love seeing the "A-HA!" moments as a student progresses; when he/she no longer studies a concept, but now OWNS it.
