Guitar Lesson Testimonials
Pamela Simmons(From the band Motorpsychos): “Not all good players are good teachers. Jim is both. He's everything I could ask for in a guitar instructor. Jim knows theory inside and out, but adds an extra layer with his knowledge and love of metal. He's able to explain application of theory in songs that I know. And on top of it all, he's fun. Jim is able to integrate what I want to learn into the long-term goals of what he's teaching me. I can't recommend him highly enough"
Jeff Loy(From the band Helios): “Jim is a fantastic guitar teacher with a seemingly unlimited wealth of knowledge regarding the instrument. Any guitarist, whether aspiring or experienced, would do well to seek him out.”
Bob Pyle: Jim is an amazing talent and a phenomenal teacher. He can explain the basics as well as challenge you at what ever level your on.
Patrick Williams: You have good instructors, great instructors and then you have instructors that change the game for you. Every lesson with Jim will leave you feeling inspired, motivated and wanting more. Jim believes bringing the best out of every one and he will do that through his lessons and music.
Jim lives and breathes music and guitar. He has extensive knowledge on guitars, music theory, amps, recording, different styles of playing and much more. Jim will take you as far as you want to go in your music journey. Whether you want to learn as a hobby or play on stage one day, he will take you there because he has done it. As long as you are willing to work and consistently practice, Jim will bring the best out in you every time.
Jim Dofka has my highest recommendation. He has forever transformed my playing and changed the game for me and he will change the game for you. If you are serious, ready to learn and to be challenged, ready to have fun, and take your playing to a level you didn’t even know existed, your search is over!
Chuck B. : Taking lessons from Jim is like learning from a friend, an easy going guy and easy to talk to. Although he takes what he’s teaching you very serious, he has a no pressure, non intimidating way about it, and that allows you to relax a focus on what you are trying to learn.
Jim is not only a fantastic guitarist, but a very accomplished musician on many instruments as well, and that is a big help at times when it comes to understanding various things about music structure and how things come together.
Anyone at any skill level wanting to learn the in’s and out’s of guitar playing owes it to themselves to give Jim Dofka a shot
