It’s time to kick start your passion for music. Listen to what our clients have to say…

  • The workshop here was one of the absolute best I have ever taken. It was so organized and structured to exactly what I wanted to learn. Being able to leave with handouts, books and material to practice is so important and something most guitar lessons don’t provide. I would highly recommend Green Hills Guitar Studio! I can’t say enough great things about my experience here
    Crystal Borelli
  • I’ve been taking lessons with Sam for over a year now and I highly recommend him to anyone looking to pick up guitar or even experienced players looking to enhance their skills. He structures your lessons based on what you want to learn and what path you want to take with guitar. He will teach you the fundamentals but also make sure you get to learn/play songs you love. He is nothing but patient and has given me a great experience while learning a new instrument!
    Morgan Sanborn
  • When I started looking for guitar lessons I hoped to find a studio that would allow (and encourage) me to learn in the best way for me. I’ve been learning for 10-months and I’m thrilled with my progress and Sam is a great and encouraging teacher!
    Melanie Knights
  • GHGS has talented professional musicians that tailor each lesson plan to match your personal needs. No cookie-cutter method here. In addition to the regular lesson format, they offer online lessons and workshops. The instructors genuinely care about you, your success, and love music

  • Shane is a great teacher who understands that the lesson is about you. I came Green Hills Guitar studio after trying to learn guitar off of youtube. The youtube teachers are good teachers, but they don’t compare to one-on-one lessons. Over the past 18 months (I take online lessons), Shane has drastically improved my both my right hand and my left hand technique. Shane is a teacher who can teach the impossible. If you aren’t sure about taking lesson guitars, then try one lesson. I promise you won’t regret it.
    Matt Chalkley
  • Sam is an absolutely phenomenal guitar instructor. Each week I looked forward to lessons because Sam truly made learning guitar enjoyable. I came in with basic knowledge of the instrument and Sam expanded my knowledge of scales, playing lead, finger picking, chord inversions and different guitar voicings.
    Caleb Peart
  • I have been taking lessons with Shane for about six months, and have had the absolute best experience! Shane is an amazing teacher, and provides a really comfortable environment. The lessons are truly for the individual student. I wouldn’t trust anyone with helping me build my songwriting skills.
    Sunny Hopkins
  • Green hills guitar studio is awesome! They worked with my weird schedule when no one else would and they tailored my lessons to what I was wanting to accomplish. Highly recommend!
    Cory Gunderson
  • Sam is an incredible teacher — patient, kind, encouraging, and incredibly knowledgeable. He meets you exactly where you are and is always focused on helping you achieve your personal goals. I was nervous about taking guitar lessons for the first time in my 30s, but it has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Also, the transition to remote lessons has been seamless. I think I like remote lessons even better than in-person lessons.
    Linda Dunnavant
  • I recently participated in Shane Lamb’s Songwriting class and am currently attending his Music Theory class and couldn’t be more impressed! Shane is a fantastic educator who has an amazing ability to not only explain challenging and difficult aspects of music creation but to also DEMONSTRATE how they are applied. Highly, highly recommended!!!
