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!

    Jonathan did a great job writing and playing guitar parts on my song. He came to the table with great ideas, asked the right questions, and delivered a great final product. Highly recommended!

    Jonathan is an amazing talent and has taken many of our songs to another new level. We couldn't be any happier with the parts and musical experience he has contributed to our project!

    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.

    Jonathan has an amazing ear for what your track needs. He puts a lot of time and thought into his parts. We’ve worked on several tracks already with Jonathan. Every track so far has been exactly what we were looking for. His turn-around time is consistently fast and our communication has been amazing.

    JT is in a league of his own! Just finished up another song and once again he went above and beyond. He must have a dedicated storage unit for all his stringed instruments. Looking forward to working with him again in the future.

    I sent Jonathan some rhythm tracks from a song I wrote years ago with the intent of freshening up an old demo and I was just blown away at what he did. By the time he added all of his musical guitar goodness it sounded like a radio hit. I can tell he spent quality time on my track paying close attention to every detail. I can be a bit OCD when it comes to music and Jonathan hit the mark with his tone and the particular parts he played. Hire this guitar slinger!

    Jonathan's guitar tone was outstanding and truly exceptional. The warmth and clarity of his sound were perfectly balanced, creating a beautiful track.

    I would highly recommend Jonathan for any future musical collaborations. His guitar work is truly top-notch, and he is a pleasure to work with.

    I have worked with Jonathan for over a decade, and he always has the right touch, the right tone, and has excellent musical instincts. On the stage and in the studio, this dude has got it!
