Jaf is a great teacher and a cool dude. He can work with you on anything you are trying to learn on guitar and is very patient and professional. Couldn’t have asked for a better teacher to get me to where I want to be on my instrument.

I've been working with Jaf for a few weeks now and have had a great experience. As a guitar player who has just picked up the guitar after many years of inconsistent playing, I've been able to progress quickly due to Jaf's style of teaching. Jaf has reignited the passion for playing that I felt 30 years ago when I picked up my first guitar. Highly recommend!

Jaf can easily explain any of the fundamentals you are trying to learn and layer in nuance and complexity as your skills develop. I look forward to these lessons.

Jaf is an amazing guitar teacher. I started lessons with Jaf over 20 years ago and he’s had a tremendous impact on my playing. I once played guitar in a band with which I recorded a music video that received over 1.25 million views on YouTube…I was able to write the song that got that number of views and record the guitar parts to it because of Jaf. If you want to become a good guitarist, learning from Jaf is the right move!
