Other recommended teachers

I cannot accommodate for all students of all geographical regions (too many people want to learn guitar) unless you want to do online lessons.

Andrew Henderson – an old schoolmate of mine from about 4th grade, we go way back and I highly recommend him as a very talented guitarist and performer. He teaches in the Liberty Park area and in Helena, at his own Lost in Sound recording studio. Andrew runs Lost in Sound Recording Studio for your Birmingham, AL recording needs.
