About Owen

The goal is to tailor each lesson to the individual to make sure it is optimized to meet their goals, while also making it enjoyable. Regardless of if a student is a beginner or an advanced player, it's crucial to understand the fundamentals and vocabulary associated with being a solid country, blues, rock or metal player. Consistency and exploring different musical genres will make the best and most original players, which is what I aim to accomplish for my students. I'll begin a first lesson with the following items and questions:

- What struck your interest in guitar?
- Are you brand new to the instrument or have some experience? Have you taken lessons before?
- Who are some of your influences in guitar or music in general?
- What do you know about the guitar and/or can you play some music for me to show where you are at?
- Let's learn a song you want and find some introductory items to learn associated with that song!

Regardless of level of player, there are going to be several pieces that are essential to becoming a solid player. That includes but is not limited to:
- basic open chords, riffs, tuning, and knowledge of the physical instrument
- Music theory vocabulary: What is a major, minor, a 'bend', 'pull-off', scale, chord, arpeggio, etc.
- Use of the metronome during daily practice
- Pentatonic Scale
- CAGED system

Country and Blues styled playing includes all of the items above but is more specialized to certain scales and techniques:
- Technique related exercises, strumming patterns and synchronization of the strumming hand.
- Active listening: learning songs by ear
- Understanding the Major scale and associated variations of that scale (Minor, Minor 7th, Dominant 7th, Minor 7th b5)
- Soloing over Chord tones - Introductory common Country and Blues riffs - Sliding Pentatonic Scale
- Pedal-Steel Guitar Licks - 6th and 3rd related guitar licks
- Hybrid Picking, Chicken Picking, Alternate Picking, Sweep Picking - "Jimi Hendrix" riffs
