hey..

will be visiting san fransisco in the summer.. probably in may all through the end of july.. ive been playing for about 4 years now.. have some basic theory and reading under my belt..
love playing everything from swing to nu-metal.. open to anything and everything..
looking for a teacher to - as corny as this sounds - do the whole 'taking me under their wing' routine.. or.. go intensive on me for 6 weeks or so.. id love to do a summer programme at a college.. but i doubt i can really afford any of those..
i took lessons the last time i was there.. and they really set me on a right direction..
hope some one replies..
cheers..

What's up man. I would look up Jason Muscat. He was my teacher when I was living in SF. A trully great human being and a hell of a player. He also plays amazing swing as well as used to play with Doug Doppler a Nu-Metal (odd-meter) guitarist from Berkeley. You can find him on myspace and send him a message through there. (Just google him with myspace in the search and it should come up). If not PM me and I will try and find his email. (I also think that he is or was reasonably priced for his skill level.

Good luck.
Jonathan

I'd suggest Arainne Cap
