Bruce Lawrence, Tony Redman and Kris Brown are three of the best guitar players I personally know, and living in Austin, I know a lot of guitar players. All three of them teach at Austin Guitar School.
Not everybody is serious about learning guitar. Some people think it's a shortcut to being on the cover of People Weekly. If you're like John Lee Hooker, though, and guitar is one of those things you got in ya and it's gots to come out, taking lessons is an important step to learning how to express yourself on the instrument.
Learning an instrument is difficult, and getting some sort of guidance is invaluable. All you might have read about Hendrix or Van Halen not ever having a guitar lesson is a bunch of hooey. Bobby Womack would sit down with Hendrix and show him stuff all the time. Players learn from other players. There are some great players to learn from at Austin Guitar School.
