If you’re taking electric guitar lessons, we’ll have a cable and amp for you in-store, but you’ll need them for online lessons. You’ll also need a pencil and paper, music stand, curriculum/books and any music or guitar tabs you're learning or want to learn (digital or physical) and notebook. A metronome to keep time is also necessary, there are plenty of apps, we suggest Pro Metronome.
Does my guitar need to be in tune?

A variety of tuners easily clip onto your guitar and are available on our website and in our stores. There are free apps, such as guitartuna.

What kind of equipment do I need to take an online guitar lesson?

Our in person private guitar lessons are held at our North Dallas location. Our studio location is located in Deep Ellum. We have gated parking. Students also have the option of waiting in our lobby area.
How much should I practice between guitar lessons?
This varies by age, goals the student has set out to achieve and time. New students particularly beginners usually spend 15–30 min. No more than 45 mins in a sitting without breaks is advised. Stretching is very important before, during and after practicing. The more involved the playing is, the more preparedness and practice is required. Its very important that practicing guitar becomes as daily as possible.

What can I expect at my first guitar lesson?
As a guitar instructor and one that strives to be a inspiring teacher I do my best to customizes in person or online guitar lessons to ensure you're learning what you like and having fun. Efficiently teaching guitar requires learning the pace at which the student learns and can manage. So typically we will start slowly, introduce new concepts each week. If you choose to learn guitar online, you'll get live, one-on-one instruction. We are thrilled to bring online instruction to San Jose, CA.
