Learning such a mix of techniques has also given my own playing something of a \u2018hybrid\u2019 nature.<\/p>\n<p>I cover a very wide variety of different topics with students. These include rock lead guitar techniques, blues improvisation, fingerpicking styles and chord construction. However, I am prepared to cover a good deal of other areas depending on the \u2018spec\u2019 that people give me! So please don\u2019t be shy in asking if there\u2019s style you\u2019d like to try, a technique you\u2019d like to explore or a song you\u2019d love to learn.<\/p>\n<p>The level of theory that people wish to indulge in can vary greatly and I am sensitive to this fact, however, even if it\u2019s just \u2018getting off the ground\u2019 that appeals to you there are essential topics which are easily covered \u2013 though not rushed. These include fretboard orientation, key and time signatures and chord\/scale relationships (none are cause for dread!).<\/p>\n<p>Music is not an exclusive \u2018club\u2019 for people that have \u2018joined\u2019 by picking up the guitar \u2013 or any other instrument - at the age of 4 and spent a lifetime with it. I know and appreciate from a number of my present students that other commitments can often restrict opportunities to indulge a passion for music. So we will work at your pace, comprehensively covering those topics that will give you the necessary skills and autonomy as a musician.<\/p>\n<p>So, see you soon for your guitar lessons, I hope!<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/guitarlessonsinsheffield.co.uk\/about-chris-murphy\">Chris<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-1709-1\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-has-style\" ><div id=\"signpost\" class=\"panel-row-style panel-row-style-for-1709-1\" ><div id=\"pgc-1709-1-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-1709-1-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"1\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t><h3 class=\"\">Related content<\/h3>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/guitarlessonsinsheffield.co.uk\/chris-murphy\/why\">Why learn to play guitar?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/guitarlessonsinsheffield.co.uk\/chris-murphy\/where\">Where do lessons take place?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/guitarlessonsinsheffield.co.uk\/chris-murphy\/contact\">Contact me<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re looking for guitar lessons in Sheffield (or even online from anywhere) I hope your seach will now be over!
