Ty's story 

 

I’m currently taking SD with Dana Rasch  and his teaching staff…I’ve been a guitar instructor for over 2 decades, and have studied with some very fine teachers….

I’ve NEVER experienced anything like this… ……EVER!

After only 10 weeks… I feel like I went to Berklee or MIT for 4 years.

Learning from teachers who have such an incredible wealth of insight and experience is simply a phenomenal experience. 

 

SD has helped me develop my alternate picking and legato styles, as well as

showing me incredible hybrid riffs that work perfectly for my style......Ideas that honestly, I would never have come up with on my own. 

In terms of improv I have the most fantastic array of materials, all of them providing me with a complete and systematic approach to expand not only my technique but visualization and phrasing.

My Comping and Chord melody skills have improved significantly thru SD...the Grove approach to Modern Harmony and Theory is simply invaluable. Now I know exactly what I need to work on in the future to develop my playing specifically for my direction, and, being a writer as well as a guitarist, this will change everything for me…

I have a 1 year plan to become a solo artist and the way things are laid out, I know what to work on to achieve seriously dynamic results, every step of the way.

Some of the “tips” alone, have amazed me….. the decades of “live’ and “studio” experience from the instructors and coaches are priceless and they keep you on the right track to developing all aspects of your playing... quickly.

 

Learning how to practice more effectively was a revelation ...now ,

I never feel like I’m wasting a minute of my time and there is no such thing

as "being in a rut". 

I could spend a year at other schools or institutes, literally paying tens of thousands of dollars and not get close to the level of information and personal attention I've received in 1 quarter with Style Designer.

I’ve never looked so forward to practice in my life….

I know the concepts I work on will really make an impact on my playing ….

I kept searching for more and more information but realized that it's basically meaningless, with out some real guidance from a pro ....... SD delivers!

For the first time I feel close to attaining my goals as a professional guitarist and musician.

 

I already know I can land better gigs but I decided to take the

 "SD recording extension", an 8 week "intensive", to work on composing and producing a 3 song EP, to show my new playing level and get working at 'higher level'

musical situations.
