Guitar Lessons for Cambridge Adults, on the Red Line

Looking for guitar lessons in Cambridge? Our studio is not in Cambridge. It is at 33 West Street in Downtown Crossing, and Kendall/MIT is 3 Red Line stops from Downtown Crossing, with no transfer. For an adult with a job, a studio on your train line often beats one that is nearer on the map and harder to reach at 6:30 PM.

From Cambridge to Your Guitar Lesson

• Kendall/MIT: 3 stops to Downtown Crossing, about 8 minutes, no transfer.
• Central: 4 stops, about 12 minutes.
• Harvard: 5 stops, about 15 minutes.
• Porter: 6 stops, about 17 minutes.

Take the T. Parking around Downtown Crossing is expensive, and the Red Line stops a block from the studio. Plenty of members come straight from work at Kendall and are home before dinner.

What Guitar Lessons Look Like Here

Private guitar lessons are one hour with a working Boston guitarist. Every instructor here teaches their primary instrument only, so you are not learning guitar from a pianist who also plays some.

Group guitar classes are 3 to 6 adults. Intro to Guitar is the starting point. From there the schedule runs through Pop Guitar Hits and Rock Guitar Hits, Lead Guitar, and Guitar Lab, where you bring the song you are working on.

Studio guitars and amps are provided for lessons and classes, so you can start before you own a guitar. That also means you can come straight from work without carrying one on the train.

Why Travel From Cambridge

Cambridge has plenty of excellent solo teachers, most of them teaching one weekly lesson from a living room. What it is short of is a place built only for adults, with a room of other people learning the same thing and instruments you can practice on after work. That is what the trip across the river buys.

What It Costs

Start with the $100 Intro Week: a one hour private lesson, seven days of unlimited group classes and open practice time. It is a paid week, and the $100 applies toward a membership or a lesson pack if you continue. After that, memberships run $170 to $480 a month. See how much guitar lessons cost in Boston.
