Charlie B. says, "I have been a classical guitar student of Bill's for the past 6 months. In retirement, I have decided to take what was an "off and on" affair with the classical guitar (I'm not a beginner) and, instead, commit the necessary time and energy to truly learning the instrument. These have been my first serious classical guitar lessons. Prior to these lessons, I was entirely "self-taught" which means I created a whole bunch of bad habits for myself and was not progressing at all. Bill refers to me as a "remedial" student which I think is a perfect description of my playing. Through Bill, I have learned proper technique which, in turn, has improved my tonality and musicality with the classical guitar. Bill has identified my bad habits, broken them down, shown the proper way to overcome them and makes sure I don't "back-slide" into my bad habits again. Bill paces the lessons according to ability, not covering material that's too advanced while still ensuring that the lesson is challenging. In each lesson, Bill is positive, encouraging yet kindly critical so that I know I am making progress yet always aware of what areas I need to work on. Bill has the right "make-up" for a teacher and I am pleased, and without reservation, to give Bill a 5 star rating. " Read more

How much do country guitar lessons cost near me?

Country guitar lessons cost $35 to $70 per session in most cases, with classes ranging from 30 to 60 minutes long. Individual instruction in-person costs $45 to $70 per hour. If you prefer learning in a group, those classes cost around $25 to $35 each.

You can learn from the comfort of your home with online lessons that cost $35 to $55 per hour. Regular monthly lessons would typically cost $170 to $315.

Are country guitar lessons worth it?

Country guitar lessons are worth it because they teach you how to play like the top country music stars in Nashville. Many playing techniques are specific to this musical style only, so you'll want a teacher who knows this genre well.

In country guitar lessons, you'll learn:

  • How to fingerpick and flat-pick with the right techniques
  • Country licks and the various uses of the major pentatonic scale
  • A range of sub-genres from bluegrass to modern country pop

What's a good age to start country guitar lessons?

A good age for kids to start country guitar lessons is 6 to 10 years old. Otherwise, they can start whenever they're big enough to hold the guitar and press the strings.

Adults of any age can pick up some country guitar skills with a little bit of help from a teacher and plenty of practice.

How many country guitar lessons do I need?

How many country guitar lessons you need depends on what you want to do with your guitar and how much you're willing to practice. If you're just looking to play a simple song, you're looking at about 2 to 6 months of weekly lessons.

However, if you want to strum like the pros, it can take 4 to 10 years of dedication.

How do I find the best country guitar lessons near me?

You can find some of the best country guitar teachers listed right here on the Lessons website or at your local music store.

When you're considering which teacher to hire, you should:

  • Check out prices from at least 3 teachers and ask what their lessons include.
  • Look up what others have said about them on Google and here on Lessons.
  • Ask them for some student references.
  • Talk to other parents to see what their little ones think about the teacher.
  • Make sure you get a written schedule and agreement before the first lesson.
  • Pay just a little bit at a time to make sure the teacher is right for you before booking a full month.

What questions do I ask when choosing a country guitar teacher?

Consider asking some of these questions to choose your country guitar teacher:

  • Where did you study music, and do you have any degrees?
  • How long have you been teaching country guitar?
  • Can I try a lesson for free to see if you can help me learn?
  • How old are most of your students?
  • What kind of guitar should I get?
  • Are you going to give me homework, and how much should I be practicing?
  • What books should I buy to learn country guitar?
  • Can you adjust your teaching style if I'm having trouble understanding it?
  • What should I bring to each class, and how long does a session last?
  • Can I get a copy of our class schedule?
  • What happens if I can't make it to a class because something urgent comes up?
  • Can I choose some of my favorite songs to learn?

Reviews for Cambridge country guitar lessons

Recent success stories from people in the Cambridge area.
Benjamin C.
I've been taking guitar lessons with Grey for exactly 2 months and I'm thrilled with my experience and progress. I tried, in vain, to learn guitar on my own for several years and finally decided to take a different approach. After our lessons together, I can play many songs I've always wanted to learn. Grey customizes each lesson based on your learning goals. He identifies your weaknesses and develops a plan to strengthen them. I feel fortunate to have an instructor like Grey who is knowledgeable, patient, and friendly. Whether you're a beginner like me or more proficient, I cannot recommend Grey highly enough. If you're thinking about guitar lessons, choose Hub Guitar!

I was a self-taught guitarist with moderate skills looking to take my skills to the next level. Being able to write, play, and understand the why behind a guitar solo was one of my goals. I have completely met and surpassed all expectations with my guitar lessons with the Wolfman. He has the teaching experience to give me the tools and knowledge to elevate my guitar playing, and overall musicianship to a level that makes me feel confident playing rock, blues, and jazz. Whether you are a beginner or an intermediate guitarist, Wolfman has a program to get you to where you want to be and then some. Week in and week out I was given new tools, theory, and overall experience to bring to my own music and create new and more complex music than anything I have ever written before.

I started lessons with Bill to learn classical guitar after 5 years of self-taught electric and steel string acoustic playing. My playing has improved immensely since I started working with him. Not only has he introduced me to classical guitar but he has taught me how to effectively practice to constantly improve. Bill has a wealth of experience and knowledge to draw upon and I cannot say enough good things. A++
