After hearing Reuben Gonzales play guitar/sing at a party recently, and knowing he was giving…read morelessons to one of the children of our host, I spoke with him about lessons. He was playing such a great mix of songs on his acoustic, it really motivated me to get off my *ss and play again. We spoke briefly, he's a great guy and I felt like it would be a fun experience. I'd maybe be classified as 'intermediate' skill level, I know most chord forms and read music albeit verrry slowly these days. I've had my first (hour) lesson, it was so fun and I already learned a lot. I had some 'bad' habits he corrected me on, started teaching me basic guitar music theory which I was totally ignorant of (also fun, this is not 'work') and taught me a couple great songs to practice some new chord forms. He uses an ipad plus writes things out as he teaches, and you get all of that from him after the lesson. He emails you the songs with the chord forms for guitar to practice. (I've now had 4 lessons, still fun every time, learning a lot of new chords and songs). Inexpensive too, compared to others I looked at, which surprised me as he's a really great teacher - not just a guy who plays great and 'tries' to be a teacher. He's a natural. HIGHLY recommend, he does half or one hour sessions here at LaunchPad in Golden. Also look for him playing at the El Rancho near Evergreen (weekends often), Holiday Bar in Morrison or the Buffalo Rose in Golden. Great to hire for private parties, which we'll be doing again soon as well.

I learned to drum from my dad on his kit and I was finally ready to acquire my own. I was suggested…read moreby my extended family who have bought many many kits from Tim to check out his store. Tim was a data base of information and extremely helpful for me who had little knowledge of brand and quality for an affordable yet high quality kit. I was sold on a 5pc pdp concept. Along the way he let me know ways I could upgrade the kit to really make this thing sound good. I sprung for zidjian a custom and have never been so happy about springing for extra money then right there fabulous kit. Since then I go to his store 2 times a month roughly to build onto my setup and each time Tim is very helpful and patient with me as I ask him questions.

We found out this store has been here 60 years, with the second generation of the same family owning it. I'm not sure which of the Kae brothers--Jason or Tim--helped us, but it was a pleasure doing business with him.

She is patient and seems genuinely interested in her students success. She will put you through the paces of classical training first. While she encourages all styles of singing, you will have to learn the classical techniques and warm ups first. After warm ups and coaching on proper pitch correction using scales, she does let you sing what you want. She will actually coach you though a song that you are struggling with and identify problems and offer remedies that show immediate results. While the results were drastic for me, the results are only as good as the effort the student puts in.

But again, what really stands out about Dwayne is his compassion and empathy. He is not just a great guitar instructor, but a great human being. He once continued our lesson for an hour and half to ensure I understood the part I was learning. After teaching for dozens of years... to have that kind of patience and dedication is a godsend.
