Bio
I bought my first guitar when I was 15 from my best friend Pete and was lucky enough to be taught by him too. At 17 I enrolled in the school of Performing Arts and Music and after two years walked out with a mission to form the greatest metal band ever known!
I spent my early 20’s writing and performing music in the local scene in Christchurch and touring throughout NZ. During these years I produced two albums with the band Jubaal – All Myths Aside and Lullaby. In 2007 I hung up my guitar and decided to start a career outside of music.
Though not actively playing live music during this time – my companion and loyal guitar was never far from my side. As the years went by, I always had a desire to return to the wonderful world of creativity but this time to share my knowledge and experience with others. Teaching students and seeing their development and discovery each week is very rewarding for me and reaffirms my place in this world!
Teaching Info
I provide structured and progressive music sessions. You will walk away each week with printed & digital learning resources (the fun kind) that will enable you to learn, understand and progress at a steady pace.
I will teach you music theory and how it relates to the guitar, it’s like learning a new language. I provide a dedicated music studio space that will make you feel at home. Parents can grab a seat in a relaxing outdoor/indoor set up (and enjoy a cold/hot drink) while they wait for the lesson to end.
Great lessons, Luke is amazing. It's a good mix of music theory and practical guitar playing which allows you to understand why you play a guitar the way you do. These lessons are so worth it!

John Guilfoyle
Our child has recently started lessons with Plectrum Guitar which has been the best decision. Luke is down to earth and his passion of guitar and music comes through in his lessons, while considering the interests of the student and what they would like to achieve. Totally recommend giving him a go.
Heather Sunkel
Luke has been great getting me started and is helping me build the foundations early on to play guitar. He's patient and always gives me achievable homework to go home and work on. Definitely recommend giving him a call!
