It costs
monthly to maintain this site, and a lot of time to create this material for
you. If you think it's worth it, help the old man out. If not,
you're welcome anyway.
I'm giving
privet lessons now in improvisation for Guitar.
The knowledge
can be applied to Composition or any style you want to play.
There's some
things that can't be taught unless they're taught hand to hand.
Plus, I have to
get to know you.
We all learn in
different ways, and have different strengths.

The only dumb
question is the one you don't ask. As far as comments and suggestions
are concerned, I've been told where to go, and what to do when I get there,
in such creative terms, that nothing surprises me any more.....so feel free.
