About Alan

Alan Morrison has been playing the guitar and bass for over 35 years and teaching lessons throughout those years. "The guitar, and music in general, has been a great source of enjoyment for me. My goal is to help my students learn the guitar so they can enjoy the many benefits of playing an instrument. I believe in starting out with the basics, such as reading music and learning where the notes and chords are on the guitar. I also start teaching songs at the first lesson. From there we can go to more advanced things, like learning specific songs, or improvisation."

Alan has played in various bands since the age of 16 and enjoys many different musical styles. He is currently lead guitarist for the band Identity Crisis, a 12 piece classic rock band.

He teaches guitar, bass, ukulele, and mandolin.

I have been passionate about music and guitar from a very early age. I moved to the Quad Cities in 1998 and started teaching guitar as a side gig. In 2009 I started AM Guitar Works, a full service guitar shop. I get to spend my days repairing and selling instruments and teaching people how to play them.

When I was in college, a music store manager asked me to teach there. After college I worked at a different music store and taught lessons. I have been teaching in the Quad Cities since 2000.

I have been teaching guitar since the early 80's. I was involved in music in high school and also took some Music Theory in college. I have been playing steadily in bands with other musicians for over 35 years. I understand what a person has to know to be successful as a musician.

About the lesson

When working with a new student I find out what their musical goals are. I teach music reading and notes as well as chords. We also start working on songs in the first lesson.

I have worked with students of all ages from 5 through 70's. I have taught some people with special needs as well.

Plan to put time and practice into the learning process. Also, plan on having fun.

I am currently working with some of my students on songwriting. It is great to see them perform a song that they wrote.

A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
What kind of music do you like? What are your goals?
