Top Electric Guitar Lessons related questions

To learn the basic skills of playing the electric guitar would take at least five to 10 months. If you want to become a decent electric guitar player who can play several songs comfortably by yourself, you would need almost two years of consistent practice to reach that level. For those who want to be a professional musician, you need to train for three years and more to continuously develop your skills.

It depends on how much time you can allot to a session per day, but typically, an electric guitar lesson should last for at least 30 minutes to an hour. You can take one electric guitar lesson per week, and that frequency can increase as you progress and improve. Talk to your Tasker about your availability to figure out the best arrangement for you!

For most children, the best age to learn how to play the electric guitar is seven years old. But realistically, they can start learning how to play as soon as they can comfortably hold an instrument appropriate for their size and manage to press down strings on their own. This is true with adults as well! Age has nothing to do with learning how to play the electric guitar, as long as you can hold one!

You can teach yourself the basics of playing the electric guitar with the help of available learning resources. But if you want to progress from there, it would be best for you to get an electric guitar instructor. Besides teaching you techniques and tips that can help you master the instrument, they can also monitor your performance and correct your mistakes to improve and grow as a player.

Having your own electric guitar would be great, but don’t worry if you don’t have one! Feel free to ask your Tasker if you could borrow or rent an electric guitar from them. If you plan on investing in an electric guitar but don’t know where to get one, your Tasker can also give you their store and brand recommendations that fit your style and budget!

You can pay for your electric guitar lessons either via cash or through Airtasker Pay. The second option is for those who would like a cashless transaction. Be sure to discuss your preferred payment method with your Tasker beforehand as well as the frequency of your payment. Tell your Tasker whether you want to pay for your electric guitar lessons after every session, every week, or every month.
