Private Guitar Instruction

Performing, composing, and teaching since 1970, I know how to guide an individual toward the fastest path to success on guitar. Whether that means playing 3-chord songs around the campfire, or headlining at Staples Center. Books & videos are great, but they can't tailor a learning program to your needs. Only a seasoned Pro can do that.

From Elvis and Chuck Berry, the Beach Boys, Yardbirds, Kinks, Beatles, Stones, Who, Hendrix, Byrds, Clapton, Zeppelin, Doors, Jefferson Airplane, The Dead, to The Eagles, Doobie Brothers, James Taylor, ZZ Top, Aerosmith, Van Halen, Allman Brothers, Donovan, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Neil Diamond to...Well, you get the idea - Classic Rock. But also Country music, from Johnny Cash to Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard, Glen Campbell, Hoyt Axton, Roy Clark, Danny Gatton, to modern guys like Brad Paisley...Let's not forget Peter, Paul & Mary, John Denver, Bob Dylan...And progressive rock like YES, Kansas, Jethro Tull, and Emerson, Lake & Palmer...Not to mention Steely Dan, who are a category all to themselves.

I've taught all of these styles and dozens more, but what matters most is I can teach YOU!

I'm looking forward to speaking with you.

Sincerely,

Russ Mallory
