About Shane
At Arizona Woodshed, we distinguish ourselves by providing practical knowledge that can be used to master your instrument. This practical knowledge has been aquired through years of live performance and collaboration with other local musicians. Many other instructors teach you how to play other peoples music. Here, we strive to give the student the tools to write their own songs and arrangments.
We enjoy seeing the students progress and become one with their new instrument. When a student feels confident that they can express themselves on their instrument, that is the most satisfying part of teaching students.
I started teaching when my friends started to get curious about guitar. I discovered I had a knack for providing information in a way that was easy to interpret. I found my first student through a poster I had made and put in a coffee shop. I stayed with that student for over 2 years and the progress we made inspired me to attempt to do this on a larger scale. SInce then, I had taught atleast 10 other students and have maintained multiple 3+ year teaching relationships.
I'm educated by local musicians Brandon Frederickson and I have studied the works of Pete Pancrazy, Simon Pratt and William Leavitt (through Berklee Press). Along side that, I have played extensively in the Phoenix areas with multiple bands. I'm currently playing with a group called "The Royal Family" where I play arrangements of famous RnB and soul tunes.

The first lesson is always free. This takes the pressure off of the initial meeting and allows us to get to know eachother at the beginning. We try to tailor the education based on the students music preferences. We believe that if a student doesnt like the music they play, they will never stick with the instrument. Students will expect to recieve various papers and diagrams throughout their lessons so a folder or binder may come in handy!
I have worked with students ranging from 5 - 65 years old. Most of my students are young adults to teenagers. I enjoy working with kids because their curiosity is unmatched. Adults are fun because they usually grasp concepts faster and progress can be swift at times. Each student presents its own challenges that require fast thinking and adaptation.
This last Christmas, my mom gifted me a tongue drum. It is a small drum that sounds similar to a steel drum. I opened it and immedietly starting playing it and learning the ins and outs. It being Christmas, I started to play Jingle Bells. Myyounger sister and I spent a good 5 minutes finding every note and performing it for the family.

Shane was one of the first instructors I worked with when learning bass. His knowledge of feel, theory, and his instrument combined with his patience to teach make him one of the most valuable teachers in Arizona. He won’t B.S you either. There’s no short cuts to getting proficient at your instrument, you have to practice. And working with Shane gave me the tools I needed to practice and become a touring, performing, musician.
Shane is very knowledgable, and also very patient. Working with someone who can work at any pace is the real value for me, and always being able to learn music that I actually wanted to play. Perfect for first time learners!
Introduced me to guitar, and really gave me a love for the music I play. I obtained knowledge and technique that has taken my playing to the next level. He has a lot of passion in what he is great at, and it shows in his knowledge and experience. Taught me at a great pace and was super patient. Overall just a great person who brings positive energy to teaching. 100% recommend to anyone at any level of playing.
