About John
Growing up with a WW2 Purple Heart Grandfather and cousins that own the largest guitar store in the world, House Of Guitars in Rochester, NY, I grew up knowing I had to aim high to make my mark in my lifetime. I've worked in optics since 1995, ground, polished, and cryo tested the mirrors for the James Webb Space Telescope, was trusted in the handling of multi-million dollar optics for NASA, did everything from working with lasers to inspection of optics that get installed in the largest, most powerful laser system in the world. I never give up on anyone and always see potential in every student and will help you embellish that potential. I believe everyone has a voice and the ability to play guitar within themselves, and that seed just needs cultivating.

Playing guitar or harmonica should be a joy, a passion. It comes from the heart & soul. I will get you to a point where you can express yourself, find your voice while still focusing on fundamental chord structure and rhythm playing, rudimentary fretboard exercises and scales. With 30 years booking & playing gigs, 37 years experience playing guitar and 27 years teaching guitar I've learned it can be overwhelming learning both the technique of playing an instrument and taking on reading music and music theory all at once. That's why I focus on getting you playing first, an emphasis on playing and improvising with others and not only loving what you're doing on the guitar but playing in front of others as well. We can also work towards playing and singing at the same time, or playing guitar and harmonica at the same time as well. I've done both live for many years. We can cover classical and flamenco material and/or just play the blues together! As your instructor, you'll find me 100% supportive, patient and tenacious.
