๐ŸŽธโ€THE GUITAR LABโ€๐ŸŽธ held its first official student performance afternoon today at โ€œMiss Celiesโ€ in Ashfield. These 7 students with ages ranging from 7 to 15 all took to the stage with the professionalism of seasoned musicians. With songs including โ€œSmoke On The Waterโ€, โ€œEnter Sandmanโ€, โ€œApacheโ€, โ€œAnother One Bites The Dustโ€, โ€œPure Imaginationโ€, โ€œTrue Love Waitsโ€, โ€œAdvance Australia Fairโ€, โ€œStar Warsโ€ and โ€œIโ€™m Alrightโ€ an amazing afternoon was had by everyone.

The dedication and hard work of everyone who performed today proves that you can accomplish anything you put your mind to.

Both Ross Ward and I were both beaming all throughout the afternoon - completely filled with pride and admiration!

Expect to see some video selections over the next week!

STUDENT TESTIMONIAL: "...It's not hard to see the effort and care that David devotes to his classes. Ultimately it's this devotion gets results. I run my own business and study after hours and have minimal time yet I've still progressed from absolute garbage to actually being able to play a few songs for friends.

I've learned things I'd never thought I'd learn. Music notation, the how and why's of scales, finger positioning, it goes on.

Simply, David has progressed my playing more than and book or course could. Book a lesson, you'll be happy you did..."

Q: Do I need to learn music theory to play guitar?

A: The short answer to this is yes. A basic understanding of "rhythm" and "rhythm notation" is essential. Being able to identify the notes on the staff is an easy skill to pick up and should be memorised. An understanding of TAB (or tablature) should be also understood. All of this will be helpful (and in some cases essential) for those "campfire guitarists".

For continued learning and advancement in to improvising, composition, understanding the finer aspects of certain genres (for example, jazz) a solid understanding of scales (and scale creation), harmony, diatonic chords (chords that belong to a key), key signatures and more are all considered important.

Q: How often should I service my guitar?

A: Taking care of your guitar is very important. While they appear to be a simplistic instrument, there are a number of parts that need adjusting from time to time. These can affect the "action" (distance of strings to neck", tuning of the instrument and more.

Generally, a guitar can be serviced once a year by a reputable and specialised guitar repairer. If you find that your instrument is suffering from tuning issues, crackling input jack, strings consistently breaking, buzzing strings/frets when playing, notes "choking out" when bending strings or any other issues that seem to affect the guitars day to day playability, get it serviced as soon as possible.
