Student Reviews
Aside from the fact that Marissa is an amazing singer and is extremely knowledgeable in vocal technique and performance with a great sense of professionalism, Marissa is your devoted spectator and supporter. That's what made working with Marissa truly unforgettable for me personally. I came to Marissa just to get some coaching on my technique, and now I do musicals, VOs, commercials and film. None of this would happen if it weren't for Marissa's expertise, guidance and support. But make no mistake! If you're considering Marissa to be your vocal coach, PREPARE TO WORK AND GET BETTER!!! Good luck to all Alex
ALEX - NEW YORK, NY Teacher: Marissa K.About the Guitar
Electric guitars can have solid, semi-hollow, or hollow bodies, and produce little sound without amplification. Electromagnetic pickups convert the vibration of the steel strings into electrical signals which are fed to an amplifier through a cable or radio transmitter.
