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.

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

If you want to find the best blues guitar lessons for you, then look at teachers nearby on the Lessons website. You can also check out guitar lessons at your local music shops. Before you choose a guitar teacher, remember to do these things:

  • Check prices from 3 different teachers and ask what they'll teach you.
  • Read what others said about them on Google and on the Lessons website.
  • Ask for a list of other people they've taught to see if they're good.
  • For kids, ask other moms and dads what their kids say about the teacher.
  • Get a plan on paper about when your lessons will be before you start.
  • Pay a little at first to see if you like the teacher before you pay for a whole month.

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

To find the best guitar teacher, you could ask these questions:

  • What type of music degree do you have?
  • How long have you been teaching blues guitar?
  • Can I have one lesson for free to see how I like it?
  • What are the ages of most of your students?

  • Will you give me some finger patterns to practice at home?
  • How much should I practice at home between lessons?
  • What books should I get, and do you know where I could find used ones?
  • How many different blues guitar techniques can you teach?
  • If I'm struggling with learning, can you change the way you teach me?
  • What should I bring to class, and how long is each lesson?
  • Can I have a copy of our class plan, agreement, and how much it costs?
  • If I have an urgent problem and need to cancel, what happens?
  • Can I choose some songs that I want to learn?

Maia S.
He's a great teacher: encouraging, but also knows when and how to critique and not discourage a beginner. Makes sure it is challenging, but not overwhelming. Encyclopedic knowledge of jazz and music theory. Definitely recommend!

He works with you from what ever level you play at and shows you what you need to do to overcome your next hurdle in the evolution of your playing skill set. When I started I thought I’d never play an open C chord. Now I play around 200 songs. What ever particular issue I might have on a new song I’m trying out, he breaks it down to individual chord progressions then puts them together to smooth out any bumps in the playing you’ll find. I highly recommend Vinny to anyone at any skill level.

I began taking guitar lessons with Thor about 5 weeks ago and he is an excellent instructor , Thor is focused on teaching me and explains and demonstrates all of the work we are doing , he is patient and enjoys passing his music skills on to me . Thor also never is in a hurry for our lesson to end , he always wants to get his lesson plan across even if it takes extra time which I really appreciate. So if you are looking for an excellent dedicated guitar instructor Thor is the right choice

Jimi is a great guy. Has me laughing and learning at the same time. I must say I've only been going for about a month and so far he's taught me more than I've ever expected. I played some guitar as a teen and after dropping off for 40-50 years he has me all excited about learning again. I've only been going for about a month but I plan on continuing forever. Give me a year or so and Ill update the review but right now I have to practice. LOL

Joe is a full blown musician , piano player guitar player singer composer . After many years not of playing guitar as i once did in my youth and wanting to pick it back up again as a senior , and this time actually learning to read and understand music and how all the pieces of the puzzle fit together and why , you’ll not find a better teacher to guide you than Joe. I highly recommend Joe and thankful for finding him via this site.

I have been getting guitar lessons with Bryan for over two years. As a forty something year old, who can be very stuck in his ways, Bryan has been abundantly patient with my slow learning process. He is thoroughly knowledgable of the guitar, adapts to my learning curve, finds real life examples that helps move me along in the right direction. So very thankful I decided to go with Bryan as my teacher. He does the music world good simply being the kind of teacher he is.

Jason really understood my situation—a kind of writer's block about the rhythm of my lyrics. He zeroed in on the how and why of it and gave me very clear help that "unfroze" my writing. And production-wise, he's amazing.

Charlie S.
Aside from being a really great person, who teaches in a relaxed but professional style, he knows so much about playing the guitar and just music in general. His talent is top tier, and he has shaped me into a much better player than I would’ve been without him. He is very calm and patient, but also passionate and invested in teaching. I can’t recommend him highly enough, as he has really helped develop my skill and interest. Wednesday night is definitely a highlight of my week!
