About Me – Helping You Become a Better Guitar Player

If you’re looking to improve your rhythm guitar skills and expand your song repertoire across a wide range of styles, you’re in the right place.

Since 2007, I’ve helped players around the world become more confident rhythm guitarists by breaking down real songs in a simple, approachable way. Rhythm is an area many guitarists struggle with, and my focus is on helping you play along with the music, not just memorize chords.

As of 2025, I’ve covered over 1,000 artists and taught thousands of songs — from the early 1900s to today’s hits — across many genres. You won’t just learn one style here. You’ll get exposure to country, rock, pop, blues, folk, soul, soft rock, and more. That variety is essential for growing as a guitarist.

On this site, you’ll find:

  • Free chord & lyric sheets
  • Video demos and partial lessons
  • Full tutorial lessons available for a small fee
  • A chance to try my teaching style with no commitment

While I don’t cover classical, jazz, or rap in the traditional sense, you’ll still find artists like Nat King Cole, or modern tunes like “Boys 'Round Here” by Blake Shelton, where elements of those genres appear — and I break them down in a way that’s fun and accessible.

So take a look around, explore the songs you love, and see if my playing and teaching style helps you level up your skills.


Note: As of Apr 2025 my site is being revamped, so pages may have a different look and feel from other pages until I get caught up.
