FAQ

Lesson questions

How young can students start?

It depends on the instrument and the child — many students start guitar or drums around 7–8, and piano even earlier. A free consultation is the best way to find out if your student is ready.

Do I need my own instrument?

For your first consultation, no. Once you start lessons you'll want something to practice on at home — we can help you find the right fit for any budget, new or used.

How long is each lesson?

Most students take weekly private lessons. Call the store for current lesson lengths and rates.

Are adult beginners welcome?

Absolutely. It's never too late — a good chunk of our students are adults picking up an instrument for the first time or coming back after years away.

Not sure where to start?

Stop by and talk with an instructor — the consultation is free and there's no pressure.
