Instructor Profiles
Zac Armgard
While attending the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston, Zac earned his Bachelor degree in composition. Since then he has worked on numerous recordings with musicians around the world. Currently you can find him playing in his cover bands throughout Georgia. How he would describe his guitar playing would be "fast and loud!" Although his main love in music is heavy metal, Zac's guitar lessons can be applied to any style of music the student likes. Many of his students have enrolled in top music schools and because of Zac's decades of experience, he knows efficient practice habits and routines to make one a progress as a musician.
Corbin King
In-person or online!
I am a guitarist of 34 years and I have been involved with music my entire life. I began teaching at Town Center Music in 2003 and have helped thousands of students achieve their goals during that time. I teach both guitar and bass but I specialize in advanced lead guitar and composition. I can help anyone, at any age, from a first day beginner to a seasoned veteran looking for some new inspiration or ideas.
Aside from being an instructor at TCM, I am most commonly known in the music biz for my heavy metal band VAINGLORY, which I am the guitarist, songwriter and producer. I am also the lead guitarist for the rap/hip-hop phenom RITTZ. The combination of these two acts and the extremely high level exposure of the RITTZ material has led my guitar playing to be heard worldwide and through all major music outlets like YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music, Pandora, etc. for a total of over 40 MILLION plays/streams.
Whether you are looking to become the next guitar hero or just want to play for fun and learn some songs, I can help you!

In addition to being a guitarist, Ricky is also a live audio engineer/producer and has worked in multiple settings such as recording studios, churches, as well as concerts on and off the stage. With a wide range of musical skills, his guitar playing is equally diverse and can be heard live in multiple Southeastern cities and on albums by local Atlanta artists. Ricky is a passionate, determined individual whose number one goal is to help musicians reach their goals and have fun while doing so.

What About Other Online Lessons?
We understand the attraction to many online guitar lessons: convenient, abundant, no need to change out of pajama pants - it sounds great. But most of them are prerecorded video series. How can an online video tell you your finger position needs to be changed? Can an online video encourage you when you just nail that tough passage? Can an online video re-arrange your favorite song to make it easier for you to learn? There's no substitute for the relationship you develop with your teacher as they encourage you and give you exactly what you need to accomplish your musical goals.
