GUITAR/ bass/ ukulele INSTRUCTION From a Pro! (live and local) Peoria, Il

Hello! My name is Cole Davis and I am your friendly neighborhood Guitar Instructor! I have expanded my schedule even further and am currently accepting students. I offer GUITAR, Bass and Ukulele instruction plus extras!! My studio is located at Music Makers 3611 W. Willow Knolls Dr. in Peoria. Music Makers is the leading store in the area offering top notch gear and customer friendly services. Help support local business owners! Don't be fooled by ads for free video guitar lessons, web cam lessons or any teaching method that is over the internet and not in person. Learning the guitar involves a lot of hands on training with an actual live Instructor.


I have been studying music, writing music and playing the guitar for over twenty years. With well over ten years of experience as an Instructor, I have developed many original, creative and very successful methods to help students achieve their musical goals. As each student is different, each individual lesson is different catering to the students learning abilities, needs, interests and goals. I accept students of all ages, from beginner to advanced and offer instruction in all playing styles, as well as song writing techniques. You are never to old to start playing music! I do start younger children out with learning the notes on the guitar and reading music first. This helps their development in many different areas besides music. Whether you want to shred like a rock star, learn to play the songs you grew up with, or want your child to experience the benefit of learning how to read and play music, I offer top notch, effective instruction at a very competitive price.


I offer top notch instruction for only $15.00 per half hour lesson. This is a very competitive price and with the economy where it's at today and monthly budgets steadily getting tighter, I have adjusted my prices to fit the times. For more advanced students, hour lessons are more beneficial and are offered at $30.00 per 1 hour lesson.
