TIM MOTZER – SONIC GUITAR BOOTCAMP 2015
Beginning this month, May 2015, I am offering SONIC GUITAR BOOTCAMP. An in- depth study of texture, sound, looping, & advanced effect pedal techniques for electric guitar. As in past intensives, this will take place at my studio in Fishtown. I will contact everyone who has already signed up to set up session times. This series is not limited to electric guitar. I am happy to work with anyone who is interested in utilizing pedals, looping, and texture in their work, ie: vocalists, keyboardists, drummers, etc…Within this framework we will also touch upon prepared treatments, tunings, improvisation, compositional process, imagination, painting with sound, harmony, rhythm, and melody. Feel free to contact me with any questions.

Tuition Fees:
4 lesson intensive $375
8 lessons $725
Visa/MasterCard accepted.

TIMES: We can discuss best time for you—daytime preferable. I will try to be flexible to when you are available. Night time is possible. Each private meeting will be 1 hour. If you are coming from out of town, I am happy to adjust the time of the session to go longer and cover more material ie: 2 hour session.
