Guitar students learn songs from lesson one — the theory arrives inside the songs, not instead of them. Acoustic, electric, or the family heirloom in the closet: Devon teaches the player, not the dogma.
Honest start age: 7 — hand size is real. Ages 5–6 usually thrive on ukulele or a half-size guitar first; we'll size honestly at the trial.
Adults: no age note applies to you, only the reassurance that about a
third of this studio is grown-ups, several on their first instrument ever.

The first 90 days
What actually happens, week by week
01
Weeks 1–3 — open chords G, C, D and a song you actually know
02
Weeks 4–8 — clean changes at tempo, strumming patterns, first riffs and tab
03
Weeks 9–13 — a three-song set list; electric players meet the amp politely
Timelines assume the honest practice minimums from the
FAQ — five focused minutes
a day for the youngest, twenty for teens and adults. Slower is fine;
we adjust the plan, not the kid.

Devon Marsh
Guitar · Rock Band Lab · Adult Band Night · 12 years teaching
Devon gigged for years before deciding he liked Tuesdays better than tour vans. He teaches acoustic, electric, bass, and the ukulele-first path for small hands, and he runs the Rock Band Lab like a band, not a class — because that's the point.
When they teach
Tuesday 3:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m.
Wednesday 4:15 p.m. – 6:30 p.m.
Friday 3:30 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.
Saturday 10:00 a.m. – 12:15 p.m.
These are the same slots the trial booker offers — one schedule, no bait.
Pick a teacher and a real slot from their actual schedule. If the honest answer at the trial is 'wait a year' or 'different instrument,' you'll hear it there, free, instead of three paid months in.
