A suprise from The Guitar Spot

Why is Hound Dog Taylor (famous 6 fingered bluesman) looking so happy? Maybe it’s his love of whisky and House Rocking or maybe it’s because he just found out it’s The Guitar Spot’s sixth birthday on Saturday (Yes this Saturday). Join us for celebrations and more (bring your own booze, and your own cake).

The real reason my man Hound Dog looks so happy is that we are offering 10% off any new guitar (1 day only Sat 1.10.11). There are also some none published special offers…

So don’t have that late summer BBQ, get down to us and celebrate (Really…….. Small Happy Derek and Jimmy “Oscar the Grouch” Wiggins will be glad to accommodate

How many guitar teachers can tell you that they got there name from an actual bluesman? (Jimmy Burns, Chicago Legend), played in front of Buddy Guy... etc. I am an actual gigging blues musician, and can offer you alot of advice and skills that help in everyday gigging situations. Here is a small sample of my playing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3IuhlIYGngM

I specialise in teaching blues and slide guitar. I teach beginners to advanced, experienced enthusiasts and professionals, in many styles and tunings, both electric and acoustic. 

 I teach from age 10 upwards, in styles ranging from pop to metal and everything in-between. I teach all abilities from my shop – The Guitar Spot, Beeston, Nottingham – and have done so since 2005. My students keep coming back year after year so I'm taking that as a sign they are happy and progressing with their playing – I have plenty of testimonials should you wish to check out my credentials.

I can also re-string and re-tune/set up guitars.

Included are some samples of my work.

Rates start at £16.00 for 30 minutes and £32.00 for an hour
