Thread Name: Good Teachers
Subject: Good Teachers
I just discovered this site recently and have really enjoyed reading through some of the previous threads.

I was hoping someone could recommend (or point me in the direction) of a good instructor. Here's what I'm looking for:

1) They give instruction in New York City, preferably, Brooklyn

2) Someone to advance my knowledge of country blues guitar. Currently I am what I would term an advanced beginner (can make my way through a 12 bar idea with fills/turnarounds utilizing an alternating bass method). I'm hoping that someone can take me to the next level. So far I am self taught (although I would definitely consider Robert Johnson, Blind Lemon, Mississippi John, etc. as my teachers).

3) Hopefully they won't charge an arm and a leg for lessons.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
