Some of My Students and their comments
Taking lessons from Scott really put me on the right track with my guitar
playing. He helped me fix my playing techniques, and opened up some new doors
for me. Scott knows the stuff, and knows how to explain it and show it in a way
that makes sense.
Thanks Scott!
I am a guitar tech and hobbyist player. Working on guitars all the time and
having a family I don't get to play as much as I want to or learn new things.
Sometimes I find myself playing the same old stuff,over and over.One day I was
surfing Craigslist and saw Scott's ad. I thought this might be good for me to
take some lessons from a pro player as I had not had lessons for years. So I
contacted him and told him what I was looking for. He said "No problem I can get
you there".
A few days later I went to his house to take a lesson and to see if this
was the right person for me. As a guitar tech I see all types of players,styles
and levels of skill. I knew in a few minutes of watching him play that this guy
was phenomenal player. Within the first five minutes of the lesson he had
already pointed out some things that I was doing wrong that I had never noticed.
I finished that lesson and continue to this day to take lessons from him and my
son does to. He is patient,easy to get along with and his prices are great. He
is a really good teacher and he really makes the lessons fun for me. If you want
to improve your level of skill or are just beginning then this is the guy you
should try. I was so impressed with his teaching that I put his contact info on
my web site. Bottom line is he can get you there.

I was 12 and just beginning, when I found Scott. I've been
working with him for a year and a half now. He teaches me everything I want to
know and everything I didn't even know I needed to know! He never treats me
like a kid, or makes me feel stupid. When I ask him to teach me a certain song
and he doesn't know it, he'll either figure it out right then and there, or
he'll know it for me the next week! I learn something new about the guitar
every week with him. Scott is my hero!!
From Kip's mom: Scott is so patient with my son, and always
finds something positive and encouraging to say about his playing. I thought
this would be a passing phase for Kip, but it's been more than a year and a half
now, and he practices several times week without me nagging him. Kip knew
absolutely nothing about a guitar when we met Scott, and now he's playing
classic rock and metal songs like a pro! Rock on, Scott!

Scott (Father): Scott has been my teacher for 2 years and has made learning so much easier than if I were doing it on my own. If I want to learn a song that he doesn't know, he will listen to it and learn it in a heartbeat and breaks the song in to parts and teaches it to me which makes it a lot easier. The man can play any rock, or blues you can think of. From Southern Rock to Hendrix, Stevie Ray, Judas Priest and everything in-between. Best investment I've ever done.
Scotty (Son): I first started playing guitar when I was 11 and went to my uncle for lessons. After about six months, my uncle Stan told me to start going to Scott Robertson for lessons (My uncle Stan and Scott played in a band together at that time). Using the main things my uncle taught me, I learned from Scott. Scott makes my guitar playing a lot of fun and makes harder things simple. He has the patience to teach, and he does not get frustrated. He's one of the best guitarist I've ever heard play.
I remember
when I picked up my guitar for the first time and was thinking in a few years I
would be jamming out to songs from Metallica and Pearl Jam then maybe bring out
a few classics from Led Zeppelin and the Eagles. Well my career ended in about
three months after practice seemed to get me nowhere. About ten years later I
decided to start playing guitar again, and since I was now older, I knew it
would take time. I met Scott through CraigsList and our relationship began from
there. I have been taking lessons with Scott for over a year and I could not ask
for a better teacher. He has worked with me and my schedule (birth of my
daughter, moving, etc.) in every which way. Thank you Scott and I hope to
continue lessons until I become lead guitarist in some major band.

The first time I picked up a guitar was 3 months
ago at my first lesson with Scott and I am truly amazed at how fast I am
learning. He is an awesome guitar player, person and teacher. He takes the time
to not only teach but show you how to really play like a pro! He goes above and
beyond each lesson teaching techniques you can only learn from someone with his
level of expertise in rock, blues, heavy metal and country. I would HIGHLY
recommend him to anyone serious about learning how to play or improve their
skills.

I have played guitar and bass guitar for over 20 years, and have had a variety
of guitar teachers along the way. Scott is by far the best teacher that I have
ever had. He teaches in a way that is faster and easier to learn, whether it be
the rythym guitar or lead guitar parts. Scott has the ability to bring your
guitar playing to the next level.

Scott is just the
kind of guitar teacher I needed. Experienced, patient, and no pressure. I had
played acoustic guitar in college and off and on over the past 35 years...more
off than on. I decided to try electric guitar and Scott helped me with my
selection of a guitar and amp. He helped me correct hand positions, worked on
scales with me, and helped me learn some favorite guitar pieces. He is flexible
on scheduling lessons and is very easy to talk to which made every lesson fun
and stress free! I highly recommend taking lessons from Scott!
