I've been playing the guitar since 1979, and teaching since 1983. Since then I've taught well over twenty-thousand private lessons. Teaching and the epistemology of playing has been the main focus throughout my professional career. In 1999 I decided it was time to put my then 16 years of teaching experience into a series of books.
The objective of the Zerofret method is to teach the essential components of guitar playing, and the fundamentals of music theory as quickly and efficiently as possible. There are countless fine methods available for advanced students and accomplished players that focus on specific areas or styles of playing. What's missing from the world of guitar instruction is a method for beginner students or more advanced players wishing to tie up the loose ends in their playing.
