THE BUSHWICK GUITAR LESSONS STUDIO
NOTICE: Due to unforeseen circumstances, I’m only able to offer online lessons at this time. Please check back frequently for updates on in-person lessons!
I have several great playing, professional level guitars (featuring Fender, Paul Reed Smith, and Squier), different types of amplifiers, and a ton of effects pedals.
If you’ve never taken lessons before, I strongly recommend bringing your guitar to the first class so that I can make sure it’s in proper working order. After that, there’s no need to bring yours unless you prefer. You’re sure to find your favorite among my collection, and everyone’s is different!
If your concerns are about tone and achieving ‘your sound’, I have both modern and vintage tube amps and fully-outfitted pedalboards that we can use to address those issues on. Most lessons, however, are done on solid state amps to conserve the life of the vacuum tubes.
[As a side note, I had a repetitive strain injury in my 20s and as a result no longer play (or own) any acoustic guitars. Electric, steel string, and nylon string guitars are all played the same way, with the same notes, chords, and scales. There won’t be any issue learning something on one of my electrics and going home and practicing it on your acoustic. If you prefer to take your lessons on an acoustic guitar, feel free to bring yours to your lessons!]
