Raleigh Guitar Lessons from Velvet Aquarium Guitar Studio
There are many reasons to begin guitar lessons in Raleigh NC. Some might say guitar is more convenient than piano- it’s certainly easier to transport. Others could say it’s because of the versatility: you can play acoustic, electric, 12 string, baritone or bass. Maybe it’s because you can wear it with a strap and guitarists look cool on stage! All of this is true, and there are plenty of other reasons to pick guitar, but the truth is, it can seem pretty hard, confusing, even nonsensical. No matter the reason Eliot Wilcox of Velvet Aquarium Guitar Studio is a seasoned musician and instructor, skilled with many instruments available for lessons.

Students may find themself perplexed by the non-intuitive layout of the instrument, or overwhelmed by the design and concepts of music theory. This is where the patience, skill and adaptive teaching approach found at Velvet Aquarium Guitar Studio can assist.
Beginner Guitar Lessons in Raleigh
Beginning students learn how to tune and hold the guitar along with correct finger positioning for open chords and open scales. Practice routines are developed and encouraged and students begin to build a catalog of songs to perform.
Intermediate Guitar Lessons
Intermediate students continue to build on basic principles and begin practice routines built around scale patterns. Music Theory is introduced through examples from the song sections, chord changes, and riffs they have already learned.
Advanced Raleigh Guitar Lessons
Advanced students are tasked with “fretboard mastery”, complex chord structure, and continuing to study theoretical concepts. At this stage the student may choose to focus on a particular style or area of focus.
