I have been a performing professional for over 30 years. I have played solo, in duos and in almost every music genre with numerous band lineups. Along the way I have taught whenever possible.. I really enjoy sharing the gift of music..! My greatest reward is that "aha moment " when my student "gets" a certain skill that had alluded them.. there are many "pivotal" aspects of playing that are necessary to know and play. When those are understood or accomplished I feel good because I know they now have mastered a concept that will be needed for years to come.. My experience will guide you to and thru those concepts and techniques....

Ben L. says, "Blues isn't something you "learn," but must "experience." Of all forms of music - rock, pop, folks, jazz - blues requires more musical "phrasing" and self-awareness. It's part of you, the musician, not something that is independent of you. I mention this because John embodies the genuine Blues. If you want to learn guitar and the Blues, John can do (like so many other teacher)... but what distinguishes John is he will guide your inner musicianship to externally manifest - for me, through my guitar. In short, John is better than advertised and highly recommend him for anyone who seeks music to be part of his/her life." Read more

Reviews for Leesburg blues guitar lessons

Connor M.
Steve has played a tremendous role in the progress I've made as a guitar player. Lessons with him are enjoyable, rewarding, and low stress. He is a good listener; he pays attention to my playing and my questions, and provides valuable feedback. The work he gives me between lessons is always challenging, but reasonable, keeping me motivated and keeping the momentum going on improving my technique and musicality. He plays beautifully and seems to genuinely enjoy discussing all things related to music and the guitar.
