Chris is an excellent music teacher! I say music teacher (as opposed to just guitar) because his lessons have helped me become a better overall musician across the multiple genres and instruments I play (guitar, bass mandolin). Chris is excellent at building lessons and practice regimens tailored to your individual needs and goals. Chris is a great mentor, he has always been encouraging, and has given me much needed structure. I recommend Chris to anyone wanting to improve their guitar skills!

Guitar Lesson Review Chris is very patient, professional and always willing to go at my pace. He makes the lessons enjoyable and never makes me feel bad when I’m struggling with something. I really appreciate his dedication and would definitely recommend him to anyone wanting to learn guitar!😄
Chris is an exceptional teacher who truly understands how to tailor his teaching to each student’s needs. He is incredibly knowledgeable and takes the time to ensure every lesson is both effective and valuable. What stands out most is his genuine commitment to student progress—he constantly looks for ways to maximize improvement and make each session count. He also sets realistic expectations and a clear progression path, which keeps you motivated as you improve. You always know what you’re working toward, and that structure makes a huge difference. Overall, Chris goes above and beyond to create a supportive, results-driven learning experience.
Chris has been an absolutely amazing guitar teacher! He’s super patient, really understands where I’m at, and tailors lessons to help me improve. Lessons are always fun and seeing real progress makes me genuinely enjoy playing my guitar. If you want a teacher who’s skilled, supportive, and makes learning guitar enjoyable, Chris is the one!!
I can’t speak more highly of Chris. In just a couple lessons I’m already playing well beyond what I had imagined. Chris is extremely clear and professional. I leave each lesson with a better understanding of the guitar and my next steps to continue my progress. Chris makes learning a new instrument enjoyable. 10/10 would recommend!
I reached out to Chris for help with music production with zero experience. He’s really helped me begin from scratch and learn foundational skills. I’d highly recommend him and am so glad I found him as an instructor!
Chris is a great intsructor 🤩 , he works at your pace and level , makes you feel very comfortable when playing
Chris is a phenomenal teacher and is very patient with me. I highly recommend anybody who is a complete beginner to Guitar to practice with Chris. Heck, even if you’re not a beginner, I would say to practice with this guy because he is an absolute expert and knows so many cool tricks. I also appreciate the fact that he is willing to commute to me and he is very flexible with my schedule
Chris is an amazing teacher! I'm currently taking Jazz Guirar under him and he is extremely informative, passionate and professional. Won't be looking for another teacher anytime soon!
Chris is an amazing teacher. I started taking guitar lessons as a beginner. He is patient and talented at conveying his knowledge. After taking my initial lesson I booked several in advance right away because I feel comfortable with his way of teaching.
The recording sessions was the absolute best session I've had.. it seems like he could read my mind. The end product was a masterpiece.. thank you, I will be returning!!
Very professional and punctual.
Working with Chris was really dope. Before I contacted Chris my record was really bland but he took it and made it the real deal. Thanks Chris i'll be returning
He is great. He knows and can do anything. Perfect quality for me :)
Chris is just the right person for me right now, having been away from the music scene for quite a long time.
For anyone looking for top quality and someone that knows what there doing when it comes to production and recording; I highly recommend Chris. I was very pleased with the music he done for me. He has the experience and is very reasonable with his prices.
Chris is awesome... professional, funny and he DEFINITELY knows what he’s doing.
Okay, if you're a rapper and have the honor of receiving a quote from Chris you better take it. I see you in your room looking up "type beats" on youtube. Trying to figure out the right delay to put on your echo. This guy does ALL that and then some. If you're curious about any of the stuff he's doing he takes the time out to teach you as he's mixing your track. I couldn't be happier. He is a super cool guy and understands what you want from your sound. The pauses, the slight autotune, the reverb, the panning, etc. He's got it on lock and brings your music to life.
