Even though I have published two books on guitar improvisation and taught ensemble workshops for several years, I enjoy teaching great habits and beginning technique to young players. And by ‘young players’ I mean both children as well as beginning adults.

“… Hans is a great instructor. He’s very patient, keeps the lesson fun, and caters his instruction around personal music preferences. I’m a beginner in my late 30s and still have hope that I can learn an instrument! I highly recommend Hans!”

“… Hans is a patient and knowledgeable teacher. After only a few lessons I understood a few flaws in my playing. Furthermore I was also given tools which would increase my technical ability as well as my music theory knowledge. If you’re looking to better understand the guitar Hans is the man.”

“… Great teacher and amazing player, from jazz to rock. I also highly recommend his jazz instruction book "bebop improv concepts", works for beginning jazz players and pros as well! I'm proud that you were my teacher Hans, thanks for so much!”

Here, at Guitar Honolulu, we offer 10-week Group Guitar Classes at three consecutive levels, each building on material and knowledge from previous classes.

Known as Guitar 1, Guitar 2, and Guitar 3, the group lessons are designed to offer the student the best entry-level perspective possible, at the lowest possible price.

For those who have met with a rewarding entry-level experience with their music studies, private instruction is often an appropriate next step.

The guitar lessons and bass lessons can, often times, effectively indulge the stylistic preferences of the student.
