I’ve known Jock for over 20 years. I began learning from him at the age of eight, starting with reading music, followed by learning tunes from my favorite bands, then learning the classical guitar. In addition, Jock taught me how to create music, record music and understand music to the point where it became a second nature. Even more, Jock taught me how to hold my ground when playing piano and drums. Be it jazz, blues, rock or classical, his technique is superb and his accomplishments speak for themselves. Besides being a guitar teacher and a musical mentor, Jock is so caring, patient and thoughtful, I think of him as a member of the family. I know his other students feel the same. Spending time in his studio is always a blast and I’m always learning while having fun. Jock taught me discipline, guitar technique, how to record music, and how to create music. I’m now a professional performer and I owe a large part of my career and success to Jock.
