The guitar is one of the oldest instruments in the world—and one of the most popular—because of its versatility and portability. Beginning students will start with strumming simple chords using the open strings of the guitar and one finger to ‘“fret” strings as needed. As the student progresses, multiple fingers will be added until they are playing chords and melodies from songs that they know and love.
Students may use their own guitar — acoustic or electric — if they already have one. First-time students may use one of Notasium’s guitars during their trial lesson if they do not have their own. Your instructor will be able to provide insight on what guitar would be best for your student, whether you purchase it at Notasium or elsewhere.
