Ive been playing guitar since the late seventies and Im always on the quest to learn because the learning never ends. I came to Mike Dugan through his workshops at the Fab Lab at Northampton Community College. What I value most about Mikes teaching is that he focuses on helping students understand music theory as it applies to guitar, not just tablature or scales. Mikes teaching instills the perspective that if you understand the chord structure of a song, then youll know whats available scale wise at any point in the song, to use for playing accents, riffs, and solos. After decades of playing, even as a front man and lead guitar player and a two album recording artist, I still had a lot of holes in my understanding of guitar playing. Mikes teaching has literally changed my life as a guitarist, and Id recommend that anyone, from beginner to seasoned troubadour give Mikes lessons a try. You wont regret it!

I am a professional Registered Piano Technician , with a love for music and some basic guitar skills .
I Studied with Mike Dugan in my spare time for over a decade. What initially impressed me was his technical prowess on the guitar. Once I sat with Mike at his studio , I found that he was the first teacher who actually asked me specifically about my goals. He then helped me reach those milestones. His patience , kindness and inspirational way of delivering information helped me to develop both personally and professionally. Five stars out of five for Mr. Dugan.

Mike is an outstanding teacher. He is diverse and a true master player. But to teach is something not every musician can do. Mike is the best teacher I have ever had.
