Guitar Lessons Aurora Testimonial For Rick Washbrook by Ian Newall
“So there I was, not so long ago, thinking that I really needed to do something about my guitar playing. I was always playing the same old licks and it was getting pretty stale. Then, walking down a street one day, I noticed a poster on a telephone pole advertising fingerstyle guitar lessons by Rick Washbrook. The poster quoted a jazz musician, whose name I recognized, saying that Rick’s guitar styling’s were reminiscent of Lenny Breau. Well! That caught my eye – just the ticket for an aspiring fingerstyle guitar player. I thought to myself, “Wow, he said that about Rick Washbrook?” Then I thought ” Hey, I wouldn’t mind sounding a bit more Like Lenny Breau”, so I decided to check Rick Washbrook out.
We set up the first lesson, and we were off… well, once I’d extracted his cat’s claws from my leg, and the cat had settled down for a snooze in my guitar case, then we were off.
Rick gave lessons in his cozy apartment with a brick fireplace, and it was a good setting for lessons (feline sneak attacks aside). Rick’s sessions were laid-back, but with a flexible structure that kept us moving forward.
I liked the way that Rick layered instruction with practical examples. We’d learn something new, and then reinforce it with some repetition, and then we’d have some fun by jamming together on what we’d learned.
A couple of years later, I’m still not quite playing like Lenny Breau (the man is a guitar genius, after all), but my playing has improved a lot, and I can do a pretty reasonable version of Cannonball Rag.
More importantly, thanks to Rick, my love of guitar playing has been rekindled, my music is far from stale, and I’m really excited about trying new stuff.
My musical horizons have broadened, to the point that I’ve even picked up a banjo (time for some more lessons!)
Thank you, Rick Washbrook! You’ve helped me to breathe new life into my guitar playing!”
