I have been an aspiring "self taught guitarist" for almost two years, making minimal progress and constantly hitting a rut. In the months that Tristan has been working with me I have seen many changes in a short time. Tristan takes the time to tailor the lessons to fit your experience level and goals as well as expanding your comfort zone. He is a great mentor who makes your time together fun while at the same time holding you accountable. The best part is Tristan builds your confidence that you can and will learn to be a better guitarist!

Tristan is a phenomenal teacher and guitarist. Generous with his time, knowledge and skill on the guitar as well as the world of being a professional musician. By the end of our first lesson, he had given me the exact material that would help further expand my theoretical knowledge and subsequently, expand my playing. From something as practical as "You should brush up on and solidify your dominant 7th arpeggios" to as simple as "you're correct, but trying looking at it through this lens instead". Can't recommend Tristan enough. He'll never say this himself, but he is most definitely a maestro of the guitar!

Tristan is a guitar genius, I have watched him on YouTube for many years killing the Brian May guitar riffs and once I had the chance of a lesson with him I jumped at the chance, I learnt so much in that hour going to take me a few weeks to process it all! Will be back for another very soon!
