Rich is not only a fantastic guitar player but an upbeat and positive teacher with an endless sense of humor. It was obvious from my first lesson that Rich actually CARED that I learned how to play, and play “properly”. He has a thorough understanding of music theory, making him one of those guys that not only knows HOW to play, but WHY. I came away from every lesson feeling that I had learned not only specific things, but also armed with the musical knowledge to figure out things on my own as well. Rich would absolutely be my first recommendation to anyone who wants to learn how to play.

Thank you Vernon. Watching the "Ah-Hah" lights go on is a great joy.

Rich isn't just an awesome teacher, he's an incredible person too. Seriously, I owe so much of my musical journey to him. His guitar knowledge? Mind-blowing! He doesn't just cover the basics he dives into the history and craftsmanship, making every lesson fascinating. And get this he didn't just teach me…he actually built my guitar, pouring his heart and soul into it. Rich's passion for what he does is contagious, and his patience and encouragement? They've pushed me farther than I ever thought possible. Learning from him? Pure joy. If you're looking for more than just guitar lessons, but a true connection to the music, Rich is your guy. Trust me, you won't regret it! Enjoy!!

It's been said you can't teach an old dog new tricks. Well I'm the old dog, and Rich defied the adage. He is extremely friendly, very patient (I'm not a quick study), very professional, and a genuinely nice guy. I look forward to my lessons every week

Thank you Steve. You need to cut yourself some slack, my friend.

Rich was my guitar teacher for several years, during which he showed great skill, technique, patience, and sense of humor. I would tell Rich what I was interested in learning and we would break down the steps of achieving my goals together. Rather that being slowing down a song and listening to each note, coming up with exercises to improve technique, or even diving into some advanced music theory. But, if I was having trouble understanding a topic, Rich would recognize it and find a different teaching approach that was better suited for my personal learning style. Rich and I built a great repertoire over the years and I would certainly recommend him as an instructor.

Silver Fox Music's reply

Nick, I remember being challenged by some of your questions, which was great! As you grew as a guitarist, I grew as an instructor. Thank you!

Rich has been a "go-to" instructor of mine for the last ten years of my career. He's always there to answer questions, show me new techniques, or help me find new ways of expanding my knowledge of the fretboard. Highly recommend!

Silver Fox Music's reply

Thank you Caitie. Being a part of your success has been so rewarding!
