Dave has worked with my son for 7 years now with both bass and electric guitar, he is a fantastic teacher highly recommended.
David is an amazing guitar player, i definitely learned a lot from him. Excellent teacher and an absolute gentleman. Couldn't recommend him more
I cannot recommend David Joseph Powderly highly enough. He is a huge music fan as well as a brilliant player and all of that comes through in his amazing tuition. I am in my 40s and have been playing lead guitar in a gigging band forever but I felt like I had gone as far as I could without a bit more "understanding". That's when I had a friend recommend David. He totally got what I needed and tailored a plan of attack covering rhythm, scales, arpeggios and a superb mix of music to study from Chet Atkins one week to Dire straits or Dream Theater the next. Every lesson addressed a skill that I could improve.. and I did.
David is a very talented guitarist and teacher and is as qualified to teach as anyone can be. Oh and a total gent. I would highly recommend him.
David is an absolutely amazing musician, I would recommend him very highly. A great person with such great patience & kindness. Continued success to you David.
