All courses are available at Music And Muses’ studio.

Student Requirements:

Students will need to bring:
their own guitar—either a classical guitar with nylon strings, or an electric or acoustic guitar with steel strings; and
an empty manuscript book, pencil and eraser.

Note: Electric Guitar students do not need to bring an amplifier—just their guitar, line and pick.

We strongly recommend that students bring their own guitar if they have one. It’s no problem at all if a student doesn’t have a guitar for the first couple of lessons. In this situation, we are happy to lend you one for each class and give you advice about getting a good instrument. Ultimately, in order to practice at home, you will need your own guitar, or easy access to one.
