My name is Nick Jeffries and I've had the pleasure of being Ben's guitar teacher for many years. Ben has exceptional talent both in terms of technique and musical sensibility. These abilities coupled with his positive attitude and strong work ethic have resulted in Ben becoming a highly accomplished guitarist. On a more personal level Ben is engaging company and has refreshing integrity which I'm sure will stand him in good stead as a professional musician. Best of luck in your new venture Ben.
