About
Farr Guitar Studio helps beginning and plateaued guitarists breakthrough difficult concepts with "musical immersion." While most studios only offer basic lessons, FGS uses a combination of private instruction, performance classes, jam sessions, and studio exclusive concerts, that promotes quick growth and musical fluency. My first favorite part about teaching music is breaking down complex techniques and concepts into an easy step by step progressions. I know. My second is when I see my studio members sharing music with each other, jamming, or listening to a great musician on a Saturday night!

Jake is definitely the most skilled guitar teacher I've had and overall a great guy. He can do any genre of music you throw at him any style. He creates a lesson plan based around your goals and does everything step by step without overwhelming you with loads of information. I would highly recommend his services.

He is well prepared and knows his stuff. He even wrote out tab music from a middle eastern piece I wanted to learn. I am happy with Jake.

FAQs

  • How did you get started doing this type of work?

    I was mentored by the world renowned guitarist, teacher, and composer, David Brandon. Not only is he a great musician but he is also a great person. David's influence in my life was so strong and positive that I now am now following in his footsteps and running my own private guitar studio.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    Make sure you get a qualified instructor. Although there are many great guitarists, there are not as many great guitar teachers. Some guitarists only play one style and will limit your educational process based on what they already know how to do. Others really only value performance and only teach to pay the bills. A great teacher will take the time to invest in the musical style you want to play and then teach it to you in a way that is engaging and comprehensive.

  • What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

    I want my customers to know that there is nothing I would rather be doing that sitting in a guitar studio with them and teaching them how to succeed at playing guitar. I love playing the guitar and showing others how to reach their goals in the easiest way.
