Ben Modley Guitar Tuition

To make the process of learning fun and as rewarding as possible, lessons are structured to suit the individual and build on your musical tastes and aspirations. So whether you want to rock Wembley, serenade your pets, or learn just for fun, I can help you get on the fast track to achieving your goals. My interest in the guitar started when I was 14. Having little else to do other than climb trees in rural Somerset I picked up my grandfather's fine Brazilian Giannini Guitar and with some help from my mother, I learnt some basic finger picking and the first few chords. Inspired by Mark Knopfler and other great rock guitarists I started to teach myself to play from books and magazines. The time came when I felt I'd benefit from having some tuition and after just two lessons from a great teacher I discovered a passion for improvising. At 16 I played my first gig with two other guitarists - this was the moment I woke up to the invaluable experience that is playing with other people!
