View Full Version : Just had my first private lesson with David...

...and I am totally stoked! I'm a beginner who's been trying to teach myself thru tabs the last year, and when I first saw David's youtube vids -- it was a quantum leap for me! All that time, I never knew David lived just 60 miles south of me in Southern California.

As soon as I found out, I emailed and found out he's been teaching privately for a long time, and if it weren't for this great venture of his and Tim's, I would have never found the ultimate guitar teacher!

David is as cool and genuine in person as he is on the videos, and I can tell his teaching style and methods come from a deep passion for spreading the joy and love of guitar and music, and also a dedication to his students -- after my 1st lesson, David had a printed lesson plan and handouts already prepared for me. Here's a link to his private teaching site for anyone else who's local and might be interested:http://www.sdguitarteacher.com/

Well, I just want to say for struggling beginners like me, it's a great thing that we have David and NextLevelGuitar, and thanks to Tim and the whole team for putting up a great service. I'm truly inspired, and I wish everyone here success and enjoyment in your learning and playing and wherever your journey as an aspiring guitarist takes you. :)

Thats so cool. I'm jealous.

However...

After seeing the photos on Davids site... I think I would sooner say forget David and take private lessons with his lead singer... :D

Just kidding David. Really. Um... unless she does lessons... you know.. never mind. Sigh.

OK.. so how about every time David thinks about singing along to the song, he gets her in there to sing instead? And that whole conversation about Tim in a speedo .... well ... :D :D :D

'Nuff said.

Whoa..whoa...Tim in a speedo!?! Did David threaten that in some video as punishment for not practicing enough or something? Hahaha. :p

But I like your other brilliant idea, Whiskey. If we get enough of a response from all the members, maybe Amberly could be persuaded to make a guest appearance in the next video. One can only dream... :rolleyes:
