    I have the pleasure of having Rice as an instructor. He is very knowledgeable for any level of playing from first starting out to introducing music theory in a non-threatening way. He is very patient through the learning process and approaches all the material in a way that really clicks with you. Would give 10 stars if possible; this guy is the real deal!

    Rice truly was everything one could ask for out of an instructor. His willingness to explore other peoples preferred style of playing guitar was outstanding. He answered all my questions and I felt right at home doing lessons with him. I really enjoyed playing the guitar with Rice and Id definitely recommend him to anyone whos interested.

    Rice provides a very comfortable, laid back learning environment. His personable attitude and patience is great for beginners like myself who may struggle to pick up concepts. Rice is an all around nice guy who truly wants you to succeed!

    Worked on knowing my level of experience so we could go from there. Great feel and technique, and doesnt teach over your head but still gives you something to think about. Great teacher!

    Very professional. Extremely knowledgeable but doesnt talk over your head. Understands where you need to start to get to where you would like to go. Rice ia a trustworthy and honest teacher for a person of any age or skill set. If you want to learn or take yourself to the next level Rice is your man.

    Frequently asked questions

    Every student is different, but usually, the first meeting involves a lot of getting to know where the student is with their instrument, what kind of music inspires them, and what kind of music would they like to learn.  From there, we can tailor a lesson plan that fits their skillset and interest, and makes it fun for them to learn and play.  We do have standard notes and curriculum we work off of, but it is designed to be fluid and conducive to the students strengths and learning methods.

    Lessons are $40 for 30 minutes, and your first lesson is FREE!!!  We offer discounts for paying for a full month of lessons in advance, and also for referring a friend or family member.  Other session lengths are also available.  Please visit our website for self-booking, or email us directly if you have any questions!
