In person lessons with FCGL has made a world of difference to my playing. My playing has improved in so many areas. I had no confidence with my playing before lessons and now I believe I can learn to play anything!
Forest City Guitar Lessons is a great place for any one of any age and any level. You can’t go wrong!!!”
Nicole C. – 4 months
I’ve had a guitar for years and didn’t know how to play and wanted to learn. I have a good teacher, the lessons are very easy to follow and really improve your playing within a surprisingly short amount of time.
Ewan M. – 7 Months
“Four short months ago, I thought playing the guitar was out of reach but after taking lessons during this time, I’ve learned so much.
I was skeptical that I could learn to play the guitar at my age but finding the right teacher not only made learning possible, it made it fun too.
I’ve had a really enjoyable and positive experience at FCGL and would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking to learn how to play, or to improve their playing.“
Craig H. – 4 months
Jordon has been a great influence on my son’s progress, helping to keep him focused and engaged to become better. My son has already made great strides in a short period of time and I look forward to see how much more he learns over the coming months.

Am I too old to learn guitar?
NO! You don't need to start at a young age to learn to play guitar. In fact, over 50% of our students are adults, many of whom are retired or approaching retirement.
My hands are too big/small/thick/narrow!
The size of your hands is not important. What matters is learning how to position your hands correctly so that you can play.
This is actually easier than it sounds! I'd be happy to show you how during your FREE introductory lesson.
What styles can I learn to play?
Our electric guitar lessons specialize in Blues, Rock, and Metal genres, including related sub-genres.
Our acoustic guitar lessons focus primarily on classic rock, blues, and pop/folk genres - perfect for campfire strummers!
FCGL instructors are also highly trained in how to teach lead guitar (guitar soloing).
What equipment do I need?
You will need the following equipment to get started with lessons:
- Guitar (Acoustic or Electric)
- Your hands
- A positive mindset
Should I try to teach myself guitar?
Let me ask you a question, and I mean this as gently as possible:
How many guitar players have you taught successfully?
Chances are, the answer is... None.
So why on earth would you experiment on yourself and try to figure it out on your own?
You don't want to go through the painful process of trial-and-error.The fastest way to learn is to take lessons with a qualified guitar teacher who is trained to get HUGE results for their students.
I've taken lessons before and didn't have great results. What makes your approach different?
Just because somebody can play guitar well does not mean they can effectively teach you to play guitar. In fact, many guitar teachers have no formal training in how to teach guitar!
Even with the best intentions, these guitar-players-turned-teachers usually end up doing more harm than good... Often, with little or no results. The sad truth is most of them just wing it and make something up at the beginning of the lesson.
At Forest City Guitar Lessons, our programs are designed to provide you with the skills you need to play guitar the way YOU want to play. There's no boring method books or nursery rhymes to slog through.We'll get you on the right path to playing guitar, right from day one.
