Aki Ishiguro

Teaches at New York City Guitar School

Aki Ishiguro has been playing and practicing for more than 11 years. He still remembers the first lesson he received when he learned to play a Nirvana song. After learning some Nirvana tunes, he became determined to learn the solos to all of Metallica’s songs. Later in his guitar career Aki developed a love for more than just rock, which landed him in the Berklee College of Music. He graduated from Berklee in 2006 with a dual major degree in Jazz Guitar Performance and Jazz Composition. Since then, he has had the honor of playing and studying with masters such as Mick Goodrick, George Garzone, and Joe Lovano. Aki also has touring experiences in Portugal, Japan, and Costa Rica. He can be heard in the city playing in his original contemporary jazz group,”Rhetoric”, and the up-and-coming original rock band, “Lucius”.

  • Beginners 1: Guitar for Absolute Beginners

    Anonymous review on 3/13/2020
    I really enjoyed the class and always wanted to learn how to play, but found it difficult to start on my own. I am truly an absolute beginner, and it was nice to take a class with peers that were at the same level. If you’ve always dreamed of playing guitar, I would recommend this class to turn the dream into reality. With a little commitment, it’s not as hard as you would think. Have fun!
