GuitarTricks - Bobby Howe [repost]

Want to learn about double stops? The style of Chet Atkins? Then Bobby Howe is the instructor for you. Coming to you out of Illinois, Bobby is an experienced teacher who will show you everything from how to hold your guitar to intricate fingerstyle arrangements.

Bobby lives in the Champaign-Urbana, Illinois area, and has played both professionally and semi-professionally since he was 12 years old. Although he has had some formal guitar and music education, Bobby is largely self-taught through decades of practice, playing, and voracious study of music theory. Besides playing in several bands of his own, Bobby played on the Nashville circuit for several years.

He has performing with Tex Ritter, Tex Williams, Tommy Duncan (Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys), Pee Wee King (wrote the song Tennessee Waltz), Stringbean (Hee Haw TV show), Ernie Ashworth, Freddie Weller and Kathie Lee Gifford. Long retired from the Nashville music scene, Bobby is by no means limited to country guitar playing; he is an accomplished, stylistically diverse musician who plays blues, rock, jazz, bluegrass, and pop fluently. His broad range of influences include Chet Atkins, Chuck Berry, Eric Clapton, Django Reinhardt, Joe Pass, and George Harrison.

Bobby is a thoroughly committed private instructor, teaching some 30 students per week, and he also records a wide variety of clients in his private studio. With Guitar Tricks since 2003, Bobby's clear, detailed lessons go from how to hold a guitar and use a pick to his own chordal melody arrangements of public domain songs.
