Guitar Center Redmond 7430 164th Ave. NE Suite B205 Redmond, WA
Nick picked up the guitar at age 13 and set out with one goal: to have fun! He started by learning classic rock songs by bands like Aerosmith, AC/DC and Van Halen. He was learning and having fun, but decided he wanted to take the next step. At 17, Nick began taking private lessons with acclaimed blues/rock artist Dudley Taft, who shared with him his technique, knowledge of music theory, and many experiences as a working musician. Nick went on to study performance guitar at Willamette University and later study audio production at San Francisco State University. Nick comes from a fun-loving family with an eclectic taste in music; he grew up listening to an assorted mix of classic rock, disco and big band jazz with his mom and dad, and listening to pop, rap, country and metal with his brother and sister! Nick believes that it doesn’t matter if music is loud or soft, fast or slow, happy or sad; it’s all about what resonates with you and allows you to express yourself. Nick believes that music is a journey of self-discovery which should be exciting, fulfilling and of course fun. Since we all learn in different ways and have different musical tastes, it’s important to take an individualized approach to music – to first discover what about music resonates with us, and then set continuously set goals to improve how we express ourselves musically, ultimately building confidence, technique and a solid foundation of music theory.

Frequently Asked Questions
Each instructor customizes lessons to ensure you are learning what you like and having fun. Your instructor will start you slowly, introducing new concepts each week, plus give you exercises or easy songs to play to keep you learning at home.
Learning an instrument is an enriching and rewarding experience that creates lifelong benefits, including increased self-esteem and the boosting of memory. Additionally, benefits for school-age individuals can include improved coordination, the expanding of social skills, and higher scores in math, reading and language.
30-minute lessons allow young or beginner students to learn the basics of the instrument and start playing songs. 60-minute lessons are ideal for more advanced students looking to progress faster and focus on the finer points of technique.
This varies by age and the type of goals the student has set out to achieve. However, most new students usually spend 15–30 min. practicing daily, while advanced students can practice for an hour or more each day in between lessons.
Our flexible curriculum allows students of all skill levels to experience growth. We help create a foundational understanding of music theory through the style of music you want to play. Our instructors will work to understand your goals and passions, and make sure you are on the path to learning what you want at your own speed.
Our Lessons staff will work with you to determine your current skill level, stylistic interest and ambitions. We'll then help you choose an instructor who best suits your style and goals. If at any point, you'd like to change instructors, let us know. Our weekly monitoring of progress and wide-ranging curriculum means you can switch to any of our qualified instructors, or another instrument, without missing a beat.
