Common Questions

Things parents and adult students ask us all the time.

Do I need to own a guitar before my first trial lesson?
+
No, you don’t need an instrument right away! We can supply a studio instrument to use during your introductory session. If you choose to continue, our coaches will give you objective advice on buying or renting the perfect size acoustic, electric, or bass guitar.
What is the difference between learning acoustic and electric guitar?
+
Acoustic guitars have thicker strings and are highly portable, making them excellent for singer-songwriters and folk styles. Electric guitars have thinner, softer strings that are physically easier for tiny fingers to press down, plus they unlock cool rock sounds. We teach basic fundamental techniques applicable to both!
Are your adult group classes fit for absolute beginners?
+
Yes! Our adult group guitar options are specifically created from the ground up for people who have never touched a guitar before or haven’t played since childhood. The environment is warm, supportive, entirely social, and stress-free.
