About

guitar lessons Typically start with strain and Pain...

I start with showing you how to have fun making music.

Music is a language, and the guitar is just like your computer's keyboard. "Typing" is easy once you understand the language, but a struggle if you don’t.

 

It's not about reading music, but developing your ear and building an understanding of how it all fits together. Exactly how the pros do it!
 

I’m Jonathan Horton, founder of The Rock and Roots Guitar Studio. And after decades of study (BA in Music), performing and teaching, I’ve developed a way to learn guitar that’s logical, fun, and effective—from your very first lesson!
 

Let me show you how the music you love works and how to play it on guitar. 

 

I look forward to meeting you!
