I have been taking guitar lessons with Forest for over a year and as a result my playing and knowledge have greatly improved.There isnt a question or a playing style that Forest isnt familiar with.He is very motivating, especially at those times when its easy to get frustrated as a new guitar player.I am thankful that I met Forest and more than grateful for being able to take lessons from such a knowledgeable and talented musician.I only wish I would have started taking lessons from Forest sooner.

Forest is an exceptional teacher. I started guitar lessons with him about 3 years ago as a complete beginner at age 58. He has been patient and perceptive, helping me advance while keeping it fun and engaging. I truly look forward to my weekly lessons. He has set me on a course I hope to follow for many years to come!

I have taken many lessons from Forest. He is an excellent guitarist as well as a wonderful teacher. He has the ability to adjust his teaching for all ages and adapts to the proficiency of the student. He makes learning so much fun as well as challenging. I give him the highest recommendation as a guitar teacher.

I take lessons from Forest. He makes the lessons fun and makes you get over the intimidation factor immediately. After 2 or 3 lessons I was amazed at my progress. My wife has taken lessons from him for years and now I do. (I got lessons and a guitar for my birthday present) Thank you, Forest! ✌🏻

Forest is a fantastic teacher! His musical knowledge is vast, and he can teach any one, at any age! Highly recommend!

Forest is a rare combination of skilled, performing musician... combined with being a thoughtful and patient teacher. His knowledge of music theory is huge, but he introduces each subject gradually, in an order that makes sense, at a pace you can follow. YouTube can teach you how to mimic playing along to simple songs, but Forest will help you become a musician... someone who can speak, as well as understand, the language of music on their own terms. I cannot recommend Forest’s lessons highly enough!
