Jazz Guitar Lessons, Coaching & Mentoring | Edison Herbert

For guitarists who want to sound more musical on real tunes — better time feel, clearer harmony, and a personal voice.

Work with Edison Herbert (UK jazz guitarist, bandleader & composer)

If you’ve got experience but feel stuck, it’s rarely about learning more “stuff”. It’s usually about time feel, musical judgement, confidence, and a clear approach that holds up on the bandstand.

Choose the option that fits you best: straightforward lessons, a structured 12-week coaching programme, or mentoring for long-term artistic and professional direction.

Edison Herbert – Guitar Lessons, Coaching & Mentoring

Who This Is For

This is best suited to guitarists who:

  • Want stronger time feel, phrasing, and comping that actually supports the band
  • Are preparing for gigs, recording, auditions, or professional work
  • Want guidance from a working musician (not just “lesson content”)
Not a beginner course. This isn’t a fixed syllabus — sessions are shaped around your goals, your playing, and your musical context.
