Cornish College of the Arts Grad with over 20 years teaching, gigging, writing, & recording experience. I teach all styles of guitar. Specializing in Rock. Very beginner to advanced shred.

I'd been wanting to take guitar lessons for a while and am really happy with my progress working with Jared.

It's been fun learning real lead parts through the techniques of different guitarists. Lessons get into both practical aspects- fingering, picking- as well as the musical structures behind their solos.

Jared's been a patient teacher. Scheduling is super easy and flexible, so even as life comes up he's been great about accommodating my schedule.

I've been taking lessons with Jared for a little over three years. When I first started I had zero music experience and simply wanted to be able to play guitar along with my favorite songs, yet soon enough I was having so much fun with it that guitar turned into a very real passion. I think guitar finds you at the right time in life. However, I also think it was the right teacher at the right time, because Jared's love for guitar is contagious. Jared is very skilled at guitar as well as extremely knowledgeable. He is also patient and creative in teaching it, as well as invested in his students. He's the kind of teacher who cares. I'm so thankful for these years of learning from him.

Best guitar teacher ever. His insane chops are matched only by his patience, humor and vast knowledge of theory and technique. His lessons are always fun, informational, and super thorough. Book him!

I took classes with Jared for several months before starting music classes at Berklee. Most of the lessons were classic rock etudes and music theory. He'll tailor your lessons to where you are in your playing and where you want to go with it.

Jared is a GREAT teacher. He mixes the right amount of technique and theory making the lessons fun. I love what I am learning and look forward to each training. I highly recommend him, even if you already have a primary instructor, your should for sure pick up some additions lessons with him!

I am grateful for having found Jared (Redd). I have been taking lessons from him for about four years. He's knowledgeable in all things guitar and music theory in general. He's also patient, kind, and encouraging, and has helped me to consistently improve my playing. He's a great guitar player, and most importantly he knows how to teach to get results.
