Reviews for New Orleans blues guitar lessons

Recent success stories from people in the New Orleans area.
Clay P.
After learning guitar for a few years by myself, I picked up a few bad habits. Luckily there's guys like Sid to get us back on track. He has helped me tremendously in developing strong fundamentals while still keeping learning fun and interesting. Our lessons can be as simple as plucking a string to as complex as building chord shapes around a given key. Sid's great at what he does and will get your playing to the next level, even if you just want to learn a few songs.
