About

For Christopher, it all started out with a plastic toy guitar
and turned into the ultimate dream job. He was born into a
musical family and it felt natural to become a full-time
musician/music educator. Christopher began his
professional journey at 13 playing covers in a local rock
band. A few short years later he was offered work at a
local music store, teaching guitar, preparing and repairing
guitars, and helping with sales. The store became his
second home and it is where he learned the art of
teaching.
Christopher Schwartz became lead guitarist with the
national touring band Go Go Gadjet. The band achieved
great success sharing the stage with nationally touring
artists such as Sublime,
Switchfoot, Kenny Chesney,
Blues Traveler, American Authors, Tonic & Reel Big Fish.
Audiences ranged from 300 to 20,000. In addition to his
success with Go Go Gadjet, Christopher is endorsed by
Suhr Guitars & Amps, Jim Dunlop Products, Heil
Microphones, and Amp Clamp USA.
In spite of his full touring schedule, Christopher has
continued to teach private lessons for the past 16 years.
He wants to continue to give back and is excited to pass
along all he has learned to his students.

I like to keep things fun but yet get the educational part to soak in.

I've taught ages from 5-60 and everyone has their own pace but everyone has their own style. And I like to get that out of them. 
I like to get to know the person & what style they're interested in. That'll keep them focused.

I also currently teach virtual lessons as a senior instructor online to students all over the world.

I’m currently endorsed by Suhr Guitars & Amplifiers, Jim Dunlop products, strings, picks, effects.

I’m also a studio guitarist who has played on various recordings & styles.

    Chris was very patient with my 10 year old daughter learning to play the guitar. He is very nice and talented. I would recommend him to anyone.
