Probably the last man breathing air in the State of NJ that really, really knows what the hell he's…read moredoing. I have been using him for 10+ years and he's never failed to provide the result/repair that he promised. Simply put, the man knows everything needed to repair guitars the old-school way, everything comes out right and his prices are more than fair. No I don't work for the guy and I'm not related to him, just telling you fellow pickers the unvarnished TRUTH.

I am updating my review, 3 years later. My son is thriving at SOR, Red Bank! They recently had…read moresome changes to staff leadership, and while I was wary at first, this group is proving to be strong thus far - very caring about the individual students and based on practices, the group programs appear to have gotten better and more creative. The instructors here are very good, and they have great connections with local venues... so if you're in a group program, you can see your daughter or son on stage at local bars/restaurants where professional acts perform. I can't wait to get my 4 year old involved next year. Will update review again after we see the next group performance, to observe how the program has evolved.

My son has been attending the Red Bank School of Rock for over a year. It has been a wonderful…read moreexperience for both myself and my son. He does both lessons and the performance program. My son had some classic piano training, but had little experience with Rock songs. Just over a year later he has learned to play dozens of classic rock, punk, and grunge songs, played 4 concerts on keyboards. He was inspired to pick up the bass guitar and played 2 concerts, and wants to learn 6 string guitar. In short, I am impressed with Billy at SoR and his excellent instructors. They really care about the music and the kids. The SoR is a nurturing and safe place that allows a new generation to appreciate great music just like I did when I was a teenager.

He is an insanely talented musician who seems to genuinely love what he does for the customer and for the love of playing every day. Unfortunately stopped lessons after a while due to simply not having enough time but still bring them my guitars/bass to setup and switch out the strings. Lucien and Sherry are great and any opportunity to get a lesson here I would take!

I picked it up a few days later paid him and everything was fine until I went to adjust the trussrod and the rod head was broken and over tightened. I call the moron up and he denies everything and he said it came that way, I said why didn't you tell me? You took my money?! Come to find out he has done it a few times to musicians I know.
