GUITAR LESSONS (TACOMA)

Susanne and I have moved back to Tacoma.  I am looking for students.  This photo was taken at the Teddy Haggarty Memorial.  We all miss Teddy.

1985 GUILD BLUESBIRD

This is a 1985 Guild Bluesbird Brian Setzer model.  I purchased one just like this in 1986 from a Guild representative.  The specific guitar was featured at the NAMM show the previous year.  This was the best guitar I ever owned.  I sold this guitar in 1995.  My wife and I needed the money to help pay for our one year study abroad stay in France.  We were attending college.  The body was solid curly maple.  The neck had an ebony fretboard.  The pickups were EMG's.  This is when Guild was made in the USA.  What a cool guitar!

GLEN CAMPBELL


This is Glen Campbell, and what a great guitarist.  This multi-talented musician can write, play and sing.  The guitar solo on this song is wonderful.  This guy is hip.

MUSE


PLUG IN BABY by Muse


The band MUSE consists of school friends Matthew Bellamy (lead vocals, lead guitar, piano, keyboards, key tar), Christopher Wolstenholme (bass, vocals, keyboards, Misa Kitara, harmonica), and Dominic Howard (drums, percussion, synthesizers).  A fabulous band all around.  Bellamy as a guitarist plays complex figures while still keeping melody as his focus.
