RE: Private Online Lessons With Chus... (in reply to DonS)
The Ashbury Music Hall system of private lessons are very unique.... its not like Skype Lessons...... Its an exchange of videos and text comments over the course of a week. You will get time to work on things post a video showing your progress and receive updated critiques as you go along. Don... please report back as you go through the process.
This is huge and yes...... it was Chusco I was speaking of back on the now DEAD (Thank Goodness) Fakemenco™ thread. Thank you Simon for putting that silliness down.
Kevin Romero.... please tell us more about Chusco... I have been typing too much lately and I need a break!!!!

RE: Private Online Lessons With Chus... (in reply to JasonMcGuire)
I've had the opportunity to take lessons from Chuscales in person in California when he comes here to play. Needless to say I've seen him play many times. He is the kindest man you'll ever meet and he is very accessible. There is something very special about him and his playing. I hope this might lead to him making some recordings of his mind blowing toque.
Yeah he is a complete guitarist and a master of alzapua. He has a great sound too.
How It Works The lesson will begin with you recording a video or audio using the Ashbury Music Hall recording tools. It is very simple. Practice the techniques I have demonstrated and record a video of yourself performing the techniques. Your virtual lesson web page is created just for you and is private so you don't have to be shy about other people hearing your practice and progress. I will be the only person who has access to your lessons and videos (and the Ashbury Music Hall webmasters). The lesson is $65. I will review up to 3 of your video posts per week (5 min. max on each video please) and give you feedback on how you are doing. I will answer your posted questions with appropriate media (text documents, video, audio, related links). I will create special teaching videos just for you, related to your assignments and progress. The lesson is customized for you and your learning pace. You have access to all the content we create 24/7 allowing you to learn when YOU want! When you are ready to move on purchase the next lesson. Lessons should be completed in 2 weeks time.
