          So I have always thought it would be really cool to build my own guitar! But then I realize that I know nothing about building anything, unless you count those salt and pepper shakers from 7th grade woodshop.  And if you ever researched building guitars you will find that it is a lot of detailed work and fine craftsmanship. However I stumbled across a website that shows you how to build

When I ask students why they didn't practice the typical response it get is "I was very busy last week".  Life can get hectic and no doubt that at times being "busy" is a legitimate reason for lack of practice time.   I will often follow that question with "did you watch TV or play video games last week?"  I can't really think of anyone who has ever said "No, nope!... not at all". My point is

The next time you sit down to play your guitar, ask yourself this question: Am I playing or am I practicing?  Confused yet? Didn't think there was much of a difference, don't worry you are not alone! When people tell me they are in a rut, then I will often ask them that question. So what is the difference? Is one more important? The answer, to become a truly well rounded musician you need to

As a music teacher, an area of practice that I often see students overlooking is rhythm. It's too easy to fool yourself into thinking that a song or solo sounds fine when you are playing alone. The problem arises when you start playing with other people and it becomes difficult to establish and maintain a rhythm. But luckily this is a problem that can be remedied! All you need is a metronome and
