This is a tough spot to be in, because it often leads to:

• Being hesitant to play in front of other people

• Feeling uncertain about your ability to play music with others

• Constantly second-guessing yourself, even with ‘simple rhythms’ and ‘easy songs’

• Losing confidence in your playing altogether

You might think that if you ‘just keep practicing’ things will get better, but the harsh truth is that unless you have been taught the right way to unlock the real power of rhythm, nothing is going to change.

It’s not your fault - it’s just that nobody ever showed you how to practice rhythm and timing in a way that actually works - AND STICKS WITH YOU PERMANENTLY!

When you learn the right way to master timing, you can:

• Stay on the beat and in the pocket every time you play

• Feel confident about your rhythmic ability in any musical setting

• Finally enjoy playing without hesitation or frustration

It all comes down to having a proven system that ‘hard-wires’ the connections between your hands, your ears, your mind, and your emotions so that you can finally play professional-sounding rhythm guitar parts. 

Here’s What Our Students Are Saying 

'I’ve had the privilege of knowing Nate Comp for over 30 years, starting when I met him at the New England Summer Arts Program when I was just 14. Nate is not only the most knowledgeable musician I’ve ever encountered, but also an unparalleled teacher. His ability to break down complex musical concepts into something anyone can understand is nothing short of genius. Nate’s guidance helped shape my own journey as a musician and teacher, and his passion for music is endlessly inspiring. Whether it’s through his unmatched skill across genres, his deep knowledge of theory, or his ability to connect with students, Nate has left an indelible mark on countless musicians, including me. There’s simply no one like him.'

- Matt Bowman

 'Nate is a walking encyclopedia of information and creative ideas. I learned the bulk of my core theory and tools that have helped me be successful today through Nate. A year after studying with Nate, I went to Berklee. He helped make Berklee seem easy! I could not be more grateful for the time I had studying under this master. I would recommend his teachings to everybody.' 

- Jake Baynes 

'Byron pushes you past your comfort zone and challenges you, he encourages you to be creative. By far the best music instructor I have ever had. Byron is patient, funny, extremely talented and generally a likable guy. You would be wise to choose him as an instructor.'
