SPOTLIGHT: Master the Blues Guitar

Curated Experiences! Tried and Tested by Us

Customer Insider Review, Dave Wright.

I was given a birthday present of a group Blues guitar workshop with John Ellis - ex Stranglers - it was a beginners Blues Guitar class, there were 6 of us and John in a room above a trendy pub near Covent Garden. Bearing in mind I’ve been playing for years, I went in with an open mind, especially because I’ve never appreciated or really listened to Blues Guitar before. We had a wide range of capability, and whilst the exercises and riffs weren’t complex, I had a fab time. John is a great guy to listen to talking, and learn about the Blues and some of the original history and backstories of the players. The session was very good, and John was very focussed throughout the 4 hour period - which seemed to pass quickly. I came away with some nice themes and tricks and ways to use stuff that I’d learned from theory and previous lessons. John also does evening acoustic house gigs in London for a really reasonable rate - I’d recommend that.

Just goes to show you, open your mind, be prepared to listen and you have a great time. Met a nice group of players too.

Although there were no startling “light-bulb” revelations during the session, there were many areas where the light bulb was turned from very Dim to very Bright. I came away from the session having a much greater understanding of the formal construction of the blues, riffs and scales.

I thought the course was brilliant. It was intense and creative and John was an excellent teacher. I got loads out of it!

I attended the workshop around April, it was a gift from my wife. It was a great experience, loved the location and John was very personable and patient with those of us who are not so good! I learnt loads in a relaxed atmosphere around like minded people, loved it!
