"Jay's approach to teaching guitar is original. Rather than only memorizing the basics, he highly encouraged me to be as creative as possible in finding my own style, and writing my own original music from the very beginning. "Learning the blues scale immediately gave me the ability to jam right away with some of my advanced musician friends, which inspired me even more to continue learning. I highly recommend Jay in helping you learn how to play too." Julie "Jay's approach to teaching guitar is original.

One of my students Jaime recently moved back to Spain to get married. I'd like to wish him and his new wife the best of luck!
"Hi Jay!
"Last Saturday was my wedding!!
"It was nice and funny, but one of the best parts was the concert...
"Best Guitar teacher in the Bay!"I was relieved to finally find somebody who had the skills and the patience to teach me to rock without making me feel like some silly girl trying to pick out Stairway to Heaven.
"You're still the inspiration in my musical life."
"I'm still trying to work on my shredding but you just blow any other fucking person out the water..."

"Rather than only memorizing the basics, he highly encouraged me to be as creative as possible in finding my own style, and writing my own original music from the very beginning"
"Seriously Awesome Guitar Teacher!""I took lessons from Jay for about 11 months (only stopped because career moved me to Boston) and learned more than I thought possible given my age / complete lack of dexterity.

"He teaches all the little tricks professional guitarists know, but don't teach in books. These are the things that separate rock stars from amateurs. I knew nothing about playing guitar when I met Jay in December, and now I'm about three months away from starting my own band."
