Electric Bass and Guitar Lessons

We provide instruction for Acoustic, Bass and Electric Guitars. Students interested in Acoustic or Electric guitar lessons can start form the age of 7 or 8. Guitar playing requires a fair amount of pressure on the fingertips from pressing on the strings. Children under 7 generally have small hands and may find playing uncomfortable. Bass guitar students generally are 10 years and older.
Private Guitar lessons are individually tailored to meet each student's need and level of experience.

Classical Guitar:
Our Classical Guitar instructors are among the most talented in the El Paso area. All of our instructors are currently earning their music degrees or have completed their degrees at the university level. Our teachers mostly hail from The University of Texas at El Paso. Their knowledge of technique, theory, performance, and overall musicianship is unrivaled. Our teachers will teach you how to read music, play with proper technique, and get you started building repertoire from the moment you first arrive. We are proud and honored to feature world famous guitarist Aquiles Valdez, as one of our own instructors.
Acoustic/Electric Guitar:
From flamenco to heavy metal, we are ready to get you started on your own personal musical journey. We teach chord progressions and music theory from the very start. These first steps are crucial to learning any style of music. Whatever style of music you enjoy, we will match you with the perfect instructor. We understand that different people have different musical tastes, and an instrument as versatile as the guitar will yield a vast number of different students. Whether you crave folk, jazz, blues, flamenco, rock, metal, punk, or country, we will be happy to serve you. We always keep in mind that different styles will require different techniques and skills. Our instruction will keep you focused on whichever path you so desire. Our director Mario Otero is very skilled in many styles of music. He oversees all instruction and always desires to play an active role in the development in all of our students.
Electric Bass:
Like guitar, the bass guitar is a very versatile instrument. Jazz, funk, or rock and roll are just a few styles of music where the electric bass is an integral part. We will teach you proper hand technique as well as the all important reading of music. Rhythm, which is a part of all of us even before we are born, is perhaps the most important part of a bass player's ability. We will explore with you and improve your confidence rhythmically to help you attain your fullest potential. A bass player will generally need experience playing with other instruments to hear how their contribution completes an ensemble. This is part of our every day work with our bass guitar students.
