Welcome To Classical, Acoustic & Electric Guitar with Rocco

LESSONS for ELECTRIC GUITAR use standard notation and a "mostly TAB" approach, and beginners enjoy much guidance and empathy in a supportive atmosphere.  Although the beginner's stage is the most difficult of all the levels, it is the stage with the most potential for progress, and there are informed choices to make regarding different styles of pickin', pluckin', & strummin' such as jazz, rock, folk, country, blues & experimental styles & traditions --- not to mention choices of electric instrument techniques and gear.  

Intermediate and advanced ELECTRIC GUITAR players who want to excel as soloists and need challenges can focus on the unique and successful UNIVERSAL GUITAR PROGRAM (click MORE tab & choose TUTORIALS), Theory & Harmony as taught at the Berklee College of Music, and other resources. 

LESSONS for CLASSICAL GUITAR learn the techniques, traditions & repertoire of the masters of the Spanish classical guitar such as Sor, Tarrega, Segovia, and modern masters like Shearer, Tannenbaum, and others.  

Whether one is a beginner or already playing, LESSONS offer a traditional program with innovative and successful techniques to learn.   Students can learn using the widely recognized Universal Guitar Program which organizes the guitar in a unique way to gain important and necessary tools for successful and enjoyable playing.
