Jonathan Trebing on SoundBetter

versatile session and touring guitarist and multi instrumentalist with 20 years experience.

I am a Nashville based session and touring guitarist with over 20 years of experience. I have a bachelor's degree in commercial music and have toured and recorded extensively with artists in a wide variety of styles from traditional and pop country to americana, folk, pop and rock. In addition to electric and acoustic guitar tracks, I also play mandolin, banjo, bouzouki, ukulele, resonator guitar, lap steel,12 string acoustic, nylon string acoustic, high string acoustic, sitar guitar, etc. If your project requires multiple instruments, I charge $25 per additional instrument after the initial fee. My philosophy is to always serve the song. The vocal/lyric always comes first. If you need help finding the perfect part or accompaniment for your song I am here to guide you and make thoughtful suggestions. I can be a sounding board for arrangement decisions and make suggestions on all aspects of the overall project as necessary. I am also available to produce complete recordings (pricing based on the scope of the project). I look forward to working with you!

    Another outstanding guitar track from Jonathan! Guy is a sure thing and just delivers every time. He did acoustic, electric, and bass on this one for me. Lots of guitar layers to add depth to the track and some tasty lead licks in just the right places. Amazing player!

    Another star performance! I'm a songwriter and Jonathan's tracks elevate my demos to another level! My third time working with him and will continue to come back. On this track he played acoustic, electric guitars, bass, mandolin, and electric slide. All the tracks blend perfectly well together. He really does serve the song and has a great ear for knowing exactly what is needed.

    The best thing about Soundbetter is that it puts you in touch great musicians. Jonathan is one of the many I have had the good fortune to work with. He has an extraordinary knack for finding parts that are both imaginative and well suited for the material he gets. His tone and technique are top notch and he is able to zero-in on parts that enhance the song. Always a pleasure working with pros like Jonathan. Looking forward to working with him again.

    Jonathan recorded stellar electric, acoustic, and bass guitar on a country track! His playing was very tasteful and perfectly suited the song. He exceeded my expectations and I'd highly recommend him to anyone looking for classy guitar on their tracks!

    JT is everything and more that you would expect from a pro guitarist. He has an ear for detail that only experience hears. His thoughtful, professional, and artistic approach (even with an abstract request) gives you what you ask for in addition to what you do not know you end up needing until you hear it. Thoroughly enjoyed working with him and look forward to future collaborations.
