Eastend guitar tuition

Topics covered during lessons

Pupil's have different preferences when it comes playing guitar, or music in general. There is no pressure to play or practice things that you don't like, but I will try to encourage you to develop certain skills that will help you become a better player faster. A is also included with lessons for you to take home and practice along with.

Beginner

soloing techniques, connecting scale patterns, using the caged system, modes.
