Dave Simmons - Invidious

Dave Simmons

Hello and welcome to the channel.. Here we explore simple pathways that deepen your understanding and skills for guitar improvisation. Each lesson is patiently presented and relies on your creative application of the concepts rather than tediously copying licks. The goal is for you to sound like you and you need a solid foundation of basic skills in order to do that with confidence. Please use the comments section to ask questions and make requests as your feedback is vital to to our success. Enjoy

If you wish to make a donation, my wife and I would like to express our gratitude in advance. We are honored that you value our content and have chosen to let us be part of your musical journey.
