Any steel teachers in San Diego area??

Post by Tyler Macy »

I am looking to take some lessons on E9 in the San Diego area. I have been playing a bit over a year and I figure it's time to make some quicker progress. Let me know if you give lessons or know of anyone nearby.

Thanks

I don't know what part of San Diego you are in, but if you don't mind a bit of a drive once a week, one of the best teachers I know of is Blackie Taylor and he is in Riverside. I drive about 50 miles one way to my lesson every Monday (live in Temecula), and it's worth it. Can't beat his price either!! Check the links at the top of the page, he is listed under instruction.

Tyler, I know it's a bit of a drive for you, but I'm recommending John McClung. He lives in San Pedro, is a very fine player, teacher and person. If you can't reach him through this Forum, contact me and I'll give you his number. -- Marc
