FAQ

  • There really isn't a best age for kids to start guitar lessons, but most children under the age of 7 generally don't have the dexterity or patience needed to learn to play the guitar. With persistence and motivation some kids have learned to play guitar at some impressively young ages, but it really comes down to is the individual attitude and maturity level of the student.

  • Students are encouraged to purchase their own guitar, especially as they reach higher skill levels. Central Music Institute does occasionally let kids borrow electric guitars for rehearsal, but for best results students are encouraged to have a guitar and amplifier at home for daily practice.

  • A practice amplifier should be just fine for most kids and adults taking guitar lessons with Central Music Institute. Our guitar instructors typically recommend a 2-channel amp with built-in distortion, so that students can play the guitar with a clean or distorted tone.

  • With steady practice, playing in a group, and weekly private guitar lessons, kids and adults can play with basic proficiency in as little as 6 months. Some students reach the level of advanced guitarists in as few as 3-5 years, but it does vary.

    The bottom line is that it's not the songs you practice, but just that you or your kid spends time playing the guitar. To see the best results, our guitar teachers recommend that students spend at least 30 minutes practicing the guitar every day.

  • At Central Music Institute, we teach private guitar lessons in-person or online in conjunction with weekly band rehearsals meant to build confidence and teamwork. While we do offer private guitar instruction, we strongly encourage students to play in band rehearsals as a way of exploring group dynamics as they become more proficient on the guitar.

  • Yes, Central Music Institute offers online one-on-one versions of our music lessons.
