I have a couple of friends in the UK that are teachers. Whereabouts are you going to be? I highly recommend looking up Neil Mellor in Liverpool.
I believe that he has had some lessons with Guthrie, Shaun Baxter and graduated from Paul Mc Cartney's music school, and has done some backing tracks for Guitar Techniques as well.
^ Amen to that! I'm a full time student there, currently doing the Diploma course there and the teaching standards are phenominal. If I were you, phone them up and ask them about having some private lessons with a teacher.
What styles are you hoping to cover?
If you're looking for a shred teacher, Charlie Griffiths and Martin Goulding are the ones to go for.
thanks man but i got back to singapore a while back....couldnt really coordinate the lessons thing..but thanks for the suggestions _________________ Wonderfully Slippery
