Guitar Lessons - Level 2

Our Guitar Lessons - Level 2 are perfect if you have played the guitar before and are aware of the basics but would like to improve, or have not played in a long time and need to brush up your skills.

Building on our beginners guitar course, you will continue to learn to play as a group. However, our professional tutors will start to introduce solo guitar playing as you gain confidence.
