Book guitar lessons with expert teachers

Guitar beginners should start with four fundamental elements that create strong groundwork.

• Parts of the instrument: Identify the bridge along with the neck to understand the guitar's structure.
• Note names: The six strings are tuned to E-A-D-G-B-E from thickest to thinnest.
• Left-hand form: Use your fingertips to press strings firmly near the fret wire.
• Strumming basics: Practice simple down-strums before adding complex rhythms.

With proper foundation in place, students can build confidence.

The average cost of an hour of guitar instruction in Springfield is approximately $30/h.

The cost can vary based on multiple criteria:
