Mike L. says, "I've been taking lessons now for 3 months. Been totally enjoying sessions with James. He listens to my feedback, and also pushes me to continue learning always providing clear guidance and instruction. I was initially concerned about how online classes would work, that concern was removed pretty quickly with the professionalism that James presents. So happy I started classes with him!"See more

Bernie L. says, "Jaime referred me to a teacher on her team, and I had a good trial lesson with Emily. We then decided to schedule a 1st lesson 2 weeks later and put it on Google Meet (it was a remote lesson). When the time came, I waited 15 min on the Google Meet and the teacher never showed up. I sent an email and 4 days later I still haven't heard back. I also can no longer reach out to Jaime via the message thread we have on Thumbtack nor send her a message as a "new client". Not sure what happened, but the experience overall was not good. Jaime was very helpful and responsive and reached out to address the issue, and combine that with the good trial lesson, I'm ok with raising the review to 4 out of 5 stars (on my own volition). Thanks again Jaime!"See more

Anna S. says, "Anthony is the reason I am finally learning guitar AND ENJOYING its addition of balance and relaxation to my life. I tried for several years with YouTube videos and one other teacher in NY, but the motivation waned. I've been excited to come to weekly lessons for 6 months with Anthony. He has an unusual combination of extreme skill and extreme humility and warmth. My parents are both professional classical musicians so even though I am a beginner in guitar I appreciate his skill. Also, they have commented that I am making great, steady progress and that the accompanying theory I am learning is very sound. Anthony is flexible, allowing me to learn the songs I want to play for my newborn and my husband, and adjusting them for my level, while working theory in between, always making it fun and laid back. I've lived in NYC 11 years and he is one of the nicest people I've ever met. This guitar teacher is a find -- a true diamond in the rough of manhattan!"See more

Reviews for Brooklyn electric guitar instructors on Thumbtack

From Cindy W.

Marcelo Maccagnan
Marcelo Maccagnan
I did one electric guitar lesson and immediately knew I wanted to pick Marcelo as my instructor. He is very knowledgeable on not just guitar but music in general. He will not only teach you guitar, but he will teach you to be a great musician!

Jeremy Hilliard
Jeremy Hilliard
We’ve been having Jeremy teach my son electric guitar, and it has been going really well. He’s always on time and quick to respond if I need to change a lesson time. I look forward to an ongoing guitar relationship.
