Guitar Lessons

The world needs more guitarists!

My mission is to give people the skills needed to learn fast, learn correctly and most importantly to have fun! My passion for just about all styles of music enables me to customise lessons for the individual student. I am a graduate of the Elder Conservatorium of music in Adelaide. I provide an array of different techniques and skills that can be applied to various genres of guitar music. My specialities are Classical Guitar, which I have studied for more than 20 years, Flamenco, which I have acquired various techniques such as Rasgueado, Blues guitar including blues scales and chord progressions, rock and metal techniques.

Studying Classical Guitar in my youth and progressive guitar as an adult provides me with a huge array of techniques and skills which can be applied just about any style of music. Whether you want to learn music for fun, for study or both Jakob B Music caters.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.
