Online Blues Guitar Lessons with Bas de Beer

If you want to sound more authentic when playing blues guitar, these lessons focus on the things that really matter: phrasing, vibrato, timing and feel.

I teach blues guitar using a visual method that lets you see exactly what is happening on the fretboard while we play together. It never was easier to see those chordtones you want to hit.

Lessons are available online worldwide or in person in New Jersey.

Teaching Style

If you’re looking for online blues guitar lessons that are fun and help you make quick progress, feel free to get in touch. My lessons focus on musical expression, phrasing and finding your own vibe on the instrument so you can sound more like a real blues player quickly.

A unique feature of my teaching is my visual guidance system. Every note I play appears on screen in real time, which makes online learning much clearer and easier to follow.

Lessons are personalized to your level and goals. You can contact me using the form below to ask any questions or discuss scheduling. We’ll jam, hopefully we’ll laugh, and you’ll always walk away with something you can apply right away.

Who These Lessons Are For

These online blues guitar lessons are designed for beginning or intermediate players, especially those returning to guitar after time away.

  • Beginners who want to start blues guitar the right way

  • Intermediate players looking to improve phrasing, tone, and confidence

  • Experienced players refining improvisation and musical expression

  • Adults and retired players rediscovering their passion for guitar after years away

Many of my students are people who always loved music but never had the time earlier in life. Now they finally want to play the blues they’ve always enjoyed — and I help them get there step by step.

Special Teaching Tool

In learning we all have our favorite ways of taking in information. Speaking for myself: I comprehend things much easier when it is displayed, when I can see it. With a midi pickup I can now show all notes I play on my screen and share that with you in videos. You basicly see a fretboard of a guitar and the notes I play. An example of this is in the video below. This makes online lessons even better, especially in summary videos this is a great visual help.
