What students and leaders are saying
“The Ignite guitar curriculum is an excellent resource for students young and old. Scott has created a step by step method based on his teaching experience for communicating not only the basics, but some of the more challenging guitar concepts as well. His curriculum is a terrific value and I highly recommend it.”
Matt Robb
Minister of Instrumental Music, Green Acres Baptist Church, Tyler, TX
“After 42 years I consider myself a fairly accomplished musician. Even so, before finishing the Beginner Ignite guitar instruction book I learned something new. By explaining the why as well as the how, guitar students of all levels receive an understanding of structure, form and theory. Ignite is a modern update and improvement of the Mel Bay books I grew up with.”
Michael Hatley
Guitarist, Writer, and Singer, Richardson, TX
“Scott's Ignite method helped me to put it all together. He teaches some theory but not too much. One of the best aspects is getting to meet others with your interest in playing Christian music. Thanks Scott!”
Larry Rice
Student, First Baptist Dallas, TX
