About Myself and Guitar Therapy

Join  Guitar Therapy  today!!  - One to One classes

I'm graduate from the International College of Music [ICOM] in Malaysia [the year 2006] and been in the Audio production field for 14 years. My primary instrument is the guitar and has experience of 29 years of playing and also teaching friends. I also have formal training in the pre-foundation of music theory, composition, and music production. My commercial works include audio post-production for TV ads, recording & mixing for local artists, and I also played guitar for band Kushehnooney's album 'Lah', which can be heard on Baiskoafu. I run my 0own audio production label called SellingKarma Productions [S.K Producitions]. I have had the privilege to work alongside with musical talents such as Meyna Hassan, Flu-Nashid, Affan, Dimba Ishantey, Kushehnooney, Appi, Kayano, and many more on various occasions. My biggest career milestone stone being working for a live gig as crew for James Brown concert, live in Malaysia 2005.
I believe music should be started at an early age to get the most benefit out of it in the long run. My course will be structured and focused on a learning path for all levels of students. It will teach the technical aspect of the guitar as well as the musical concepts of composition and music theory. It will also teach students to read guitar tablature and learn to pick songs on their own, and ultimately start writing their songs!

All classes will be one-on-one private tutor sessions at the students' homes. Learning material will be provided except the instrument.
Requirements
  • Each student must have a guitar of his own. [electric or acoustic]
  • Focus is solely on guitar as an instrument.
The course will be either one or two sessions* a week, each class will be 1 -2 hours. Students who register can have first session FREE, to see whether he/she finds the session interesting before committing themselves.

*Learning Path One (Novice Level: Monthly cost = MVR 1200/- [4 session per month]
*Learning Path Two [Coming Soon]
Minimum age - 6 years. [Preferred age is 11 below years]. Subject to consideration.

Welcome to Guitar Therapy - One to one Tutorship

Greetings all string-pulling, jumping, slamming, ass-kicking, ax-wielding musicians. This is for all of you guitar freaks out there! Don't be fooled so easily though, my private coaching sessions do not only cover guitar, but also music theory, learning pathways to advancing your music skills, composition, and basics of arrangements as well. So whether you want to shred out, or learn to write your own songs on your guitar, you are at the right place. It's in a long time we are making, and I think it's finally time to give it away for the new generation. First, before I go any further, I want to say that I'm not a guitar guru, nor a music maestro, I consider myself always as a student of music. Yes, my primary instrument is music, and I also play piano, drums a little bit, and the bass as every guitarist would or should. I've been playing for 29 years and have enough experience teaching not only guitar but music production as well. I have formal education in mus...

Barre Chords [MT-6]

According to the Wikipedia definition it states; "In music, a  barre chord   is a type of  chord  on a  guitar  or other stringed instrument, that the musician plays by using one or more fingers to press down multiple strings across a single fret of the fingerboard (like a  bar  pressing down the strings). In guitar chord diagrams we seen how they are demonstrated in our previous sessions. A bar chord is demonstrated in similarly diagram as shown above. The diagram is interpreted in the guitar tablature manner, where the chord diagram is flipped 90 degrees. If you keep your guitar flat on your lap, that's the view of the diagram in tablature. [A topic which will be covered more extensively in GT sessions later]. The most important factor is knowing what the root note of that barre chords is. Root notes, octaves and more of these will also be covered at GT when I go in-depth with music scales and its applications. The root note on first diagra...

An In-depth look at Guitar Tabs

As we have seen in our previous session, which focused on the introduction of tablature, the diagrams differ from those of chord diagram illustrations. The numbers on the horizontal lines indicate the fret number rather than the finger number. You can see this when you keep going above the 5th or 6th fret on the guitar diagrams. To learn something, I believe the best teacher is a practical application itself. Therefore I have devised a fretting exercise, an improvisation from a Steve Vai exercise I came across a long time ago. It is advisable to use a metronome or if you can, maintain a count yourself while doing the exercise. First, we do it in a simple chromatic run starting from 1st fret on the 6th string. Examine the diagram below. It’s a simple chromatic exercise you start with lowest string and chromatically decend. Once you do then you ascend in the oppsite starting with your pink from the highest string. It’s important to have a metronome on or try and count yourself as you do ...
