Hello, my name is Jim Cruz, thank you for dropping by my Guitar Lesson website/blog. I am an Atlanta area musician and guitar instructor, teaching in the Henry County, GA area. In addition to lesson information, I also share guitar-related content in my blog articles. Many of my articles will be of interest to my existing and prospective students since they introduce information about guitars in general as well as featuring a number of great guitarists and other musicians that have influenced me through the years.
My name is Jim Cruz and I have been teaching guitar lessons professionally in Henry County as well as Clayton County for over 35 years. Lessons were taught for many years in 3 music stores until opening up lessons in my own studio location in 2008. As an instructor, I endeavor to make guitar lessons fun, practical, and productive!
Below are my available lesson time slots for my home studio location and are updated whenever there's a change or a new opening is available. Keep updated on my availability for lessons by signing up for my monthly newsletter update showing my new lessons openings as well as blog posts on guitar-related info.

I grew up in Lindenhurst, NY and lived there till I 19 yrs of age. Music had been a big part of my life since I was 10 years old. I've had lot's of formal training with some incredible guitar teachers. I credit those teachers for introducing me to many different styles of music and influencing me to always be a student of music. I've studied Jazz guitar with Charles LeVerne, Tony Campo, and Bob Shaw. They were top-flight jazz artists with decades of experience. I also studied other styles with a number of other guitar instructors as well.

I was very fortunate to have been surrounded by alot of musicians in NY which gave me the opportunity to cut my teeth playing in many musical situations. I've played guitar for over 40 years and taught for over 30 years.

I have had a great time learning the guitar with Jimmy Cruz. He is personable, patient and above all else, one heck of a teacher. His teaching method works well for me as an adult learner and I always look forward to my next lesson. Sometimes it’s the highlight of the week
