Grades Offered
Learners MUST have access to an appropriate size guitar during class. Please contact me if you have questions about the instrument you have. I'm asking parents to get color coded stickers to put on 2 of the frets on the guitar. You can either use stickers or there is a set of fret identifier stickers available on Amazon with this link https://www.amazon.com/Fretboard-Markers-Sticker-Decals-Guitar/dp/B00PGQYNOM/ref=sr_1_48?crid=1JH637FL27MV7&dchild=1&keywords=guitar+fretboard+stickers&qid=1608263997&sprefix=guitar+fretboard+%2Caps%2C173&sr=8-48 Alternately, if you would prefer just to use stickers or colored paper, we need to mark the first fret (closest to the end of the guitar) with blue and the third fret with red.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
- Guitar Tuna or other similar Guitar tuning app (free version is fine)
