At age 8, I started taking private piano lessons, at 9 began taking cello. At 15-Started teaching piano to children of friends.  When I was 21, I moved to Dominican Republic and Haiti for Missionary work, taught private piano lessons in Haiti for 2 years. Piano teaching spanned over 2.5 decades in other places like a shop in Danbury CT and private lessons again in Vidalia, GA. Recently my husband and I relocated to the great city of Worcester and I am eager to be able to aid more music-lovers to accomplish their dreams of mastering the piano.

My personal love for all varieties and styles of music helps me to be versatile in my teaching methods.  Adapting to the preferences of my students is important to me. Modern or classic rock, hip-hop, or blues to classical, jazz or country...my students find me to be flexible in finding the right songs to fill their musical repertoire.

Vapor Trail is a studio quality analog delay pedal capable of warm, authentic vintage tones with immense clarity and presence.

Vapor trail is a true analog delay pedal designed using the famed Bucket Brigade circuitry to provide authentic vintage tone with clarity, warmth and presence. Responsive modulation controls add shimmer and movement to your tone - with the Rate and Depth controls located on the top panel for easy access in live settings. From slap-back echo, ambient and long liquid delays to rotating speaker and long and liquid delays, Vapor Trail delivers a multitude of brilliant sounds. Vapor Trail also features a TRS insert that can send wet signal to any other pedal or effect, such as a flanger or chorus. You can also use it to separate the wet and dry outputs for stereo or recording setups, or plug in any standard volume pedal, and adjust the amount of wet signal with your foot. To round out the special features on this unit, we've made the Delay knob translucent with a cool blue LED that flashes to give you visual feedback on the delay time you have selected - especially handy when you're playing live on a dimly lit stage! Like all of our pedals, Vapor Trail is designed and assembled at our Santa Barbara, California factory by the same team responsible for our legendary pickups.

The exhilarating G2655 Streamliner Center Block Junior Double Cutaway is designed for three simple things-high gain-friendly performance, slick, easy playability and spectacular style. A sleek music machine, the G2655 cranks out the hits with updated features while staying true to That Great Gretsch Sound!™ that's been a vital component of rock 'n' roll since its inception.

The secret to the Streamliner's sound is twofold-the Broad'Tron humbucking pickup and the spruce center block. Specifically designed by the expert engineers at Gretsch for the Streamliner, the high-output Broad'Tron humbucking pickup spawns robust lows, pristine highs and a throaty midrange for a unique tone that blends well with other instruments in a band context. A lightweight spruce center block runs the length of the body, reinforcing the top while eliminating undesirable feedback for volume-friendly performance on modern stages. The Streamliner's sonic power is harnessed and shaped by the traditional control layout-neck and bridge pickup volume controls, a master tone control, master volume control and three-way pickup switching. A fast-playing 12"-radius rosewood fingerboard with elegant pearloid block inlays and 22 medium jumbo frets sits atop the white-bound nato neck with a thin "U"-shaped profile-ideal for chord work or fiery riffing. Enjoy rock-solid tuning stability courtesy of the stylish Gretsch "V" stoptail tailpiece, Adjusto-matic™ bridge with an anchored base and synthetic bone nut.

All the classic eye-catching style you've come to expect from Gretsch is here-vintage-style black control knobs, F Holes, elegant two-ply white and black body binding, slick-looking nickel hardware, single-ply black pickguard with Gretsch logo and arched laminated maple construction. Easy to play while rocking out thanks to its smaller body, the G2655 Streamliner Center Block Junior Double Cutaway is a phenomenal instrument for the modern musician who wants to control the stage and the audience while standing out from the pack.

The birthplace of many legendary guitarists, Southern California is also home to one of the original innovators of high performance guitars-Charvel®. Combining versatile tone and eye-catching style with breakneck performance and ultra-slick playability, the tricked-out Pro-Mod San Dimas Style 1 HH HT was born to rock under the spotlights with head-banging, first-pumping Sunset Strip style.

Decked out to meet the needs and exceed the expectations of today's guitarists, this instrument sports two high-output Seymour Duncan® humbucking pickups-a crisp, clear JB™ bridge pickup and a rich, fat '59 neck pickup for robust tone with highly dynamic articulation and harmonic balance. The volume control conceals a push/pull coil split to have even more tonal variations on tap while the No Load tone control operates like a standard tone control from positions one through nine, removing itself from the circuit at position ten for transparent sound, letting the full natural voice of the guitar shine through. Play with confidence in the guitar's tuning stability and intonation, thanks to the secure six-saddle hardtail bridge. The two-piece maple neck hosts 22 jumbo frets along with a pair of graphite reinforcement rods to resist bending and warping under environmental stresses. The speed neck profile and 12"-16" compound radius fingerboard are designed for warp speed playing, unhindered positional shifts and mile-wide upper register bends without fretting out.

As curvaceous as a high performance hot rod, Charvel's San Dimas guitars are widely acclaimed for their sleek, bold style. A black hardware package, including a Charvel four-bolt neck plate, branded die-cast tuning machines and vintage-style flat string tree are matched to bodacious finishes inspired by the So Cal lifestyle. Designed to match high-octane sound with unparalleled performance, the Pro-Mod San Dimas Style 1 HH HT is decked out and rarin' to rip it up in the studio and on the stage.
