Greg Howe

I had the chance to take a lesson with Greg Howe who is one of my favorite guitar players on the planet.I was really nervous,no I was scared to death.It was last March,I was waiting for my lesson.It was at the Tone Center in Anaheim Ca.I brought my Ibanez Jem guitar with me.When it was time for my lesson I walked into his studio room.I got to plug into a Cornford amplifier and warm up with Greg.I admitted to him I was a little Star struck.He showed me arppeggios and scales and how to take them apart,and then we jammed.I even played a little lead guitar.When he took the solo it was amazing.The lesson helped me with my playing a lot.If anyone wants to check out Greg Howe log on to www.greghowe.com I believe he will have online lessons soon.I think it’s great that he’s sharing his knowledge of the instrument.I admitted to ripping off a lot of his style in my playing(not borrowing,ripping off!)Greg is such a big influence,and if anyone has the chance check out his CDs.I have them all.My personal favorites are Paralax,Ascend,and his self titled disk.Check him out.

Woot! Greg Howe is way cool too. It must be really awsome to jam with the biggies.

It was great to sit down with Greg and jam a little.The guitar lesson was pretty hard but a lot of fun.As soon as my schedule gets easier I’ll go back and take more lessons from him.
