Doug is a fantastic teacher. My 9yr old daughter can't wait to go to her guitar lesson. Doug is patient with her and teaches at HER pace.

DC Guitar Lessons
I have been taking lessons with Duncan for 2 months now and highly recommend! I had self-taught basic guitar experience before but feel like I have improved significantly in a short time working with Duncan. I leave every lesson feeling like I’ve made a big step forward in understanding the guitar, new things to practice, and most importantly the motivation to practice.

Paul Edelman Music
Best guitar teacher in Denver, hands down! Extremely knowledgable in a wide variety of music, and is very accommodating in putting together a lesson tailored to your playing style.

Paul Edelman Music
I decided to take guitar lessons 2 years ago after trying to learn on my own with limited success. I tried group lessons and got a little better but was limited by other students who didn't practice.
I was fortunate to find Paul after talking with several teachers. Paul was willing to teach what I wanted to learn and push me to get better. Paul has exceeded my expectations. I'm better and having more fun playing guitar than I ever hoped. I highly recommend Paul for anyone wanting to learn guitar.

I've been taking acoustic guitar lessons from Doug Wilmarth for a year now and have thoroughly enjoyed and learned from the experience. Doug teaches electric guitar as well. He is professional, incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, accommodating and experienced. I recommend him highly! Great guy; great teacher!

Sollohub Music
I've had lessons with both Russ and Mike for guitar, and they're both awesome! I've been playing for 18 years, and I received immediate value from working with these two!

Britt Devens Guitar Lessons
Really enjoyed my first lesson with Britt! I wanted to learn guitar to play songs for fun, and I’m less concerned about music theory, and she’s really great for that. She made our lesson fun and kept it engaging. Looking forward to learning more.

Paul Edelman Music
I am so grateful to have taken guitar lessons from Paul. He is the most encouraging, inspiring guitar teacher and I learned so much from him. He always came to lessons prepared with new, fun songs that he'd taken the time to write out the music for! He met me at my level and knew just how to challenge me to help me grow as a player. I couldn't have asked for a better teacher and would suggest that anyone looking for lessons look no further than Paul. He's just the best.

Traveling Music Lessons - In person in your home!
We’ve been very happy with having live guitar lessons for our son. Our teacher is great & the communication from the team is prompt & helpful. We have a plan & our teacher has been very flexible with adding another student from our family. This is not a one & done. We hope to have many lessons from Traveling Music Lessons.

ShredShift: Quick Guitar & Bass Mastery
I purchased my first guitar just a few weeks before deciding to find a teacher, and I was hesitant about getting started. However, Jordan made the learning process both enjoyable and approachable. In our first lesson, we started with the very basics like going over the different types of guitars and fundamental techniques, which helped me feel more comfortable.
Jordan is patient, knowledgeable, and great at breaking things down in a way that’s easy to understand. Each lesson is well-structured, and I appreciate how he tailors the sessions to my pace while still challenging me to improve. We begin each lesson by reviewing what I’ve been practicing throughout the week before diving into topics ranging from music theory and strumming patterns to chords and picking.
Since starting lessons, I’ve gained confidence in basic chords, strumming patterns, pentatonic scales, and even improvisation. Jordan is always encouraging, making learning guitar a fun and rewarding experience. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled and supportive guitar teacher!

DC Guitar Lessons
I’ve started with Duncan for the last 3 weeks. I really enjoy the lessons and how he explains the guitar. I feel like I’m understanding the building blocks of the guitar and the why behind the drills we are doing. It’s more like playing with a friend than an instructor which makes it much more fun. Highly recommend and can’t wait to continue my journey with him.

Strum2TheBeat Music Lessons
Kevin is awesome he will help you play your favorite songs and makes learning a lot of fun. I would highly recommend taking lessons with Kevin if you are looking to learn the guitar or drums and have fun doing it.
From Meredith S.
Strum2TheBeat Music Lessons
I am so glad that I started taking lessons with Kevin. I really enjoy his teaching style, and how he helps you learn songs that you want to learn and already enjoy listening to. He provides reasonable and attainable goals after each lesson, which has helped me with practicing between each lesson. I would highly recommend him for anyone that is interested in learning guitar.
From Ayden B.
DC Guitar Lessons
Duncan is an excellent teacher with a strong understanding of music theory and a long history of real experience. He is patient, has concrete, organized practice and lesson plans which allow you to improve quickly. Additionally, he ties everything you learn back to different genres of music and styles. I would highly recommend him to anyone at any level of trying to learn more about playing the guitar.
From Drew S.
Anthony Felts - Full Measure Music
I have been taking guitar lessons with Anthony for a couple months now and have seen significant improvement. One of the many things I have appreciated so far is that the lessons are always tailored to the individual and their learning style. Anthony also has an unbelievably expansive knowledge of not only multiple instruments, but music, music history, and music theory as a whole. As a result, the lessons feel very dynamic and you learn concepts from multiple different angles. You learn from seeing, hearing, and playing. His expertise shines through in his ability to explain difficult concepts in simple terms and in different ways until it makes sense. He's also just a fun person to be around! The studio is also really nice and comfortable.
10/10 would recommend going to Anthony for lessons. I look forward to it every week and it has kept me feeling challenged, motivated, and excited to learn.
From Faith M.
DC Guitar Lessons
After a delay in hearing back from the pros I originally reached out to, Duncan actually reached out to me! Now I’ve had weekly lessons with him for almost two months and it is one of the highlights of my week. He is patient and great about checking in on my goals/pain points which makes me feel like I am in total control of my journey and soothed my nerves around being an adult beginner. I feel comfortable showing up with the progress I have/haven’t made between lessons and constantly feel motivated to keep learning and practicing.
The lessons have been a perfect mix of structure/objectives while also diving deep into the details of technique, theory, and anything else I want to talk about. He is laid back and passionate about music so every lesson feels like an hour well spent. To anyone looking for an amazing guitar teacher that is super friendly and inviting, and can meet you wherever you’re at, I can confidently say Duncan is the one!

Anthony Felts - Full Measure Music
I have been taking guitar lessons with Anthony for about four months and am so happy I found him. In my time with Anthony I have noticed a number of things:
-Anthony is an immensely talented guitarist. It is clear from the first lesson how much time he has put into his craft. I am regularly in awe watching him during our lessons as most of the time his playing seems almost effortless. Combine that with how much he loves music and you know you are in good hands.
-While Anthony is an amazing musician, he may be a better teacher. Anthony truly cares about your learning and provides a kind, encouraging presence while also providing the resources and direction to truly improve. He understands when to practice what and does not box his students into a linear, pre-determined learning path. I think this shows how much he cares for your personal development.
I have so much fun spending an uninterrupted hour every week playing with Anthony. I have felt myself improve immensely even in a relatively short time. The reward of working with a teacher who cares so much and the tangible results make me so, so happy that I stumbled upon him. Thank you Anthony!
