Barry Martin

As the current guitar instructor at Last Chance Guitars, and the adjunct teacher at Simpson, DMACC, and Grand View College, Barry keeps busy "spreading the word" of how to learn to play the guitar.

He currently is in the "home stretch" of writing an instructional series for the guitar. Barry has plans to publish and distribute these guitar lesson manuals, CD's, and teaching videos on a national level.

Higher educational studies in the Classical guitar field, have led Barry to masters classes featuring recording artist Christopher Parkening, and Douglas Niedt. Barry has also performed lead guitar in numerous area bands and, on many occasions as a classical guitarist and Acoustic/Vocal act in the Des Moines metro area.
