Are blues guitar lessons worth it?

Blues guitar lessons are worth it to play blues guitar because the structured and custom-tailored teaching approach accelerates progress while enhancing technique. Self-learning, while possible, is a longer road laden with the risk of cultivating bad habits.

A blues guitar teacher will show you the essentials like:

How to emphasize playing on expressively
Ways to get confident improvising with a jazz band
Mastering the 12-bar blues progression and blues scales
Learning unique techniques like string bending, slides, and vibrato

What age is best to start blues guitar lessons?

Children can start blues guitar lessons between the ages of 6 to 10 years old at the earliest. The best time is whenever they can hold the instrument easily and have the hand strength to press on the strings.

Adults of all ages can learn to play blues guitar with the right instruction and regular practice.

How many blues guitar lessons do I need?

The number of blues guitar lessons you need all depends on what you're aiming for and how long you practice. Beginners typically learn how to play a simple song in 2 to 6 months on average. However, mastering blues guitar takes at least 4 to 10 years.

Pat Balder is an exceptional singing teacher. His training and background see him combining the best parts of traditional and contemporary vocal practice. He has built his own approach, merging parts of other disciplines such as SLS, Estil, Opera and more. Even online he has been able to work bringing my voice to a level at which I am thrilled - I've found the voice I always wanted. Pat has a great ear for hearing the parts of your voice that need refining, and even online he notices subtle physical nuances. He's also an amazing singer who can do almost any style. And he's a kind-hearted, charming guy. I couldn't recommend him more!

I've been taking lessons with Mike for a few years now and I'm very happy with the progress I've made. Mike is a great teacher, he's very knowledgeable and talented, and he does a really good job of incorporating my questions and interest into our lessons. He gives me good constructive feedback and always has good suggestions on how to improve. Mike has a lot of real world experience playing in bands and recording and producing music which he also works into our lessons and I find that to be incredibly valuable as well. If you're looking for a guitar teacher I would highly recommend Mike.

I have had multiple guitar instructors over the years, but Mark exceeds them all. He not only brings talent and knowledge, but a sincere passion and excitement to help his students realize their dream. He is extremely flexible in terms of scheduling, changes, and even adjusting his lessons to suit the desire of the student. As an adult student, his lessons accommodate both my busy schedule and my "old fingers". On top of all his musical knowledge and expertise, he is genuinely a kind, honest, and outstanding person. I have never met a guitar instructor as great as Mark!

Good at guiding you through how to play guitar in a simple but systematic way. It was fun being able to apply what we learned at each lesson by learning a new song and jamming together as a group. I liked how he would show alternative chord shapes that were easier to play or sounded better in addition to the standard chords.
