Simply Guitar Newbury
Learning the guitar is the same as learning any new skill - we start off right at the basics and work our way up, gradually adding different techniques and contributing to our pool of knowledge. We can play the music we know & love! In a world full of screens, it's a great thing to be able to do.
At Simply Guitar we are passionate about helping everyone achieve their goals in learning the guitar whether it's just to play a few chords or pass their grades to a high standard!
We have large teaching rooms with a separate waiting area along with free parking available to all of our students. We have male and female WC's. Unfortunately, there is no wheelchair access as we are on the first floor and apologise for any inconvenience.
You can keep up to date with our offers and news on our Facebook page
