JM Guitar Tuition

My name is James Martin, and I've been a guitar player since 1994. In the twenty-plus years since I first fumbled my way onto the fretboard, music - and the guitar in particular - has been my abiding passion. In those first months since a schoolfriend showed me how to play a Nirvana song ("About A Girl") with two fingers I became completely and utterly addicted to the guitar, devouring every morsel of information I could find and devoting all my free time to practicing, learning and improving as much as I possibly could.

In 1996 I attended the Access To Music popular music course in Leicester, and my learning began in earnest as I mixed with many excellent musicians far more experienced than myself, and I soaked up all the information I could while in that environment. I left with a Diploma in Contemporary Popular Music, and a Rockschool Grade 8 qualification!
