My name is Billy Ray McClelland. As a musician I am an accomplished guitarist and have been studying guitar for many years now. I have finished three Certificates at Berklee Online and currently working on my fourth certificate; my third Master Certificate at Berklee Online. My completed certificates include Master Certificate in Guitar, Music Business and Technology, and a Specialist Certificate in Songwriting.

I am a veteran(Iraq War), married to a Captain in the Army and we have two wonderful children. My wife is the most important reason I can be here and study so much! It has been a life-long dream of mine to study at Berklee in Boston but she knew I would be happy with at least online studies! Music has always been and will always be my “life” within my life.

I stumbled across this site again after 7 years. I had created the free account back in 2006. I just upgraded to Full Access Subscriber. I come back here because I enjoy learning everything and anything. I am very happy that I reconnected to the site. I can't wait to dig into the lessons and start learning tunes again (the right way)! Good to be here!!
