Guitar Lessons With Dave Krater

Specialties

Acoustic and Electric Guitar Lessons for ages 6 to adult.

History

Established in 2010.

For over twenty years I have taught guitar to thousands of students, ages 6 years old and up, in some of the top music stores in IL. With this experience I have developed techniques and materials that, regardless of age, will get you started on the road to playing the guitar. I opened up my own studio in Sept 2010 in Lake Zurich.
