Book guitar lessons with expert teachers

Guitar beginners should start with four core areas that create a solid foundation.

• Guitar anatomy: Know the nut and other essential parts to describe problems.
• Open string names: Standard tuning assigns specific notes to the strings when unfretted: E-A-D-G-B-E.
• Left-hand form: Press strings firmly behind the fret using the pads near your nails.
• Right-hand rhythm: Hold a pick between your thumb and strum through all strings with loose wrist motion.

Master these essentials first to avoid bad habits that slow progress later.

The average cost of a guitar lesson in Callaghan is approximately $32/h.
