PGL Online Private Lessons are for guitarists & bassists of all levels who play punk, metal or alternative styles, from beginners who can’t yet strum a chord, to intermediate & advanced players wanting to reach the next phase of their guitar career. Any age, any skill level, any ability is welcome (including players with disabilities).

Learn your favorite songs, the basics of music theory, or simply gain the bare minimum of skill to start a band! Learn about the guitars and amps used in punk, metal & alternative styles. Learn the idiosyncrasies that make harder styles of music unique. For example, deep dive into dropped tunings, palm muting, or pinch harmonics!

Each Online Private Lesson (only $60) includes a custom-lesson plan, a full hour session (using free Microsoft Teams) and a separate HD video (that is yours to keep forever) that summarizes the lesson and gives you areas to practice until your next lesson. Each lesson is meticulously planned and tailored to your individual goals, taste and skill level. I also offer a package deal where if you pay for 4 lessons in advance, you get the whole month of weekly lessons for $200 (4 weekly lessons).

My video chat setup uses the highest quality - professional audio equipment to broadcast my guitar and voice, and an HD camera in my well-lit studio provides crystal-clear video.
