white noise
I'm thinking you would rather take the passive route as oppossed to burning his house down (Not really recomended, it took me ages to convince the Police it wasn't me, it was my evil twin , but thats another story.)

In my experience environmental health / council / police are useless when it comes to domestic noise.

a) Try talking, explaining etc but if he is a twunt then threats from big boyfriends may help.

b) You can buy white noise generator which is basically a box that produces a constant "HISSSSSSZZZZZ" that drowns out other noise. Your brain quikly adapts to the constant "hissss" (unlike variable singing/guitar sounds) and blanks it out. Good for going to sleep. (or just use a radio and find a blank bit of frequency)


c) Hire some young (under prosecution age) thugs to smash his windows every time they here him play.

d) if he's an instructor, get your friends to make bogus appointments every time he disturbs you, then cancel them at short notice because "they got no sleep last night, some twunt was singing and playing guitar all night". Let him know you are organising this.

e) Seduce him, and let him play your instrument (Fnar fnar), and make him too knackered to play his giutar
