Instrument rentals:

  • Child or adult classical guitar or soprano ukulele are available for a very reasonable monthly rental.
  • Please confirm your rental needs before your first session.
  • Rental fees vary by instrument and are between $25 and $35 per month.

Guitar / Ukulele:

  • A child’s or adult classical guitar or soprano ukulele is available for the first in-person class.
  • The instruments can also be rented. Please confirm what you need when scheduling your first session.
  • Students are responsible for purchasing their own instrument, and any recommended books, tools or materials for classes.
  • Each student should have an instrument to practice with if they continue with lessons.
  • It is not necessary to buy a new instrument. If you buy a used one, be sure to have a guitar technician look at the instrument before you purchase it. I can recommend Roger at Clinton Guitars for checking out used guitars, and he also has (new and used) guitars available for purchase.

Practice:

Regular practice is critical to your success! Let’s figure out realistically how much you can practice and when, and talk about a schedule you can stick to. Generally, try to do 20 minutes, 3 times a week and you will see satisfactory improvement.

Thank you again for choosing me to help you achieve your musical goals on guitar and ukulele! Let me know any questions or concerns that you may have about these guidelines. I look forward to helping you on your musical journey!
