    Default My guitar teacher (video)

    Finally he has something on the TUBE....
    This is Bernd who was my teacher from 14-16 and then from 22-24. Unfortunately, he's got only Jazz and Acoustic videos online, but you should hear him play the Blues.

    I am thinking about taking lessons again and doing only Jazz for a year or two. This is the guy who prepared me for all the Fender showcases I played.

    I know he looks strange, but he's a heart on two legs!

    Very cool Jimi, have you kept in touch with him?

    I don't think he looks strange, I think he feels the music.

    Jimi,
    Thanks for posting that, man!
    I love to hear that kind of music played by someone with that much talent.

    Thank you all for your nice comments. I always send my students to Bernd when I fail the time to teach them. They are by far better with him than with me as a teacher. Bernd is a professional and he's got his music school in his house - very practicable. I am very proud that I was given the chance to take lessons with him, as he does not teach everybody and his schedule is more than full.

    As mentioned above I am thinking about taking lessons again. I feel that there is so much more to learn!

    Jimi -

    Your teacher is a fantastic player. I love the tone he was getting, and those runs he did at 1:20 or so were perfectly executed. Precision + feeling = one helluva talent.

    Thanks for sharing!
