Greetings! I'm Jace Wilbert, a seasoned guitarist based in Wichita, KS. With over 25 years of professional experience, I’ve spent much of my life immersed in music—as both a performer and an instructor. While guitar is my main instrument, I also enjoy teaching and playing electric bass and ukulele.

I’ve been teaching guitar privately since 1999, working with students of all ages and skill levels in both Wichita, KS, and Dallas, TX. My teaching spans a broad range of genres, but I specialize in Rock, Pop, Funk, Blues, and Soul. I’ve had the privilege of studying privately with renowned blues and jazz artists David Keller and Jerry Hahn, and I also studied at Wichita State University under Craig Owens.

I picked up the guitar at age 13 and never looked back. By 16, I had formed my first alt-rock band, Shaft, taking on the role of lead guitarist. We went on to perform locally, regionally, and nationally for over a decade. Since then, I’ve remained deeply involved in the Wichita music scene, playing and leading in groups such as Riverside 65, The Yale St. Players, Lucky People Band, Infinite Layers, Groove 42, and Prodigals. I’ve also collaborated with hip-hop artists Tech N9NE and XV. These days, you can find me on stage with Moodswingz, a rock and reggae cover band.

I’ve been teaching at Air House Music Academy since 2021 and feel fortunate to be part of such a vibrant and supportive music community. In addition to one-on-one lessons, I offer group classes for guitar and ukulele, including youth and adult formats. One of my favorite projects was directing the Air House Ukestra—a group ukulele course for ages 8–17 focused on learning rock and pop songs and performing at local venues. It was a blast, and I look forward to bringing it back soon.

My Approach:
Music instruction is more than just a weekly lesson—it's about showing up consistently as a mentor and guide for those looking to tap into their creative energy and unlock their musical potential.

Learning an instrument (or deepening your skills) can be both challenging and incredibly rewarding. I approach every session with positivity and a beginner’s mindset. I aim to make the learning experience light, fun, and tailored to each student’s unique interests, while keeping a strong foundation in the fundamentals.

Whether you're just getting started or looking to grow as a musician, I’m here to help you enjoy the process, build confidence, and make meaningful progress—one step at a time.
