Guitar Lessons in Music City: Bach to Rock Nashville West

Guitar Lessons in Nashville West

Nashville is where Jimi Hendrix got his start, Vince Gill honed his craft, and Keith Urban found a new home. Learning guitar at Bach to Rock ties you directly into the community. You’re not just practicing chords, you’re connecting with a living musical city, playing near historic sites, and performing at local events and venues. It’s a great place to learn!

Located at 6702 Charlotte Pike, Suite 105, Bach to Rock Nashville West has a wide range of offerings for beginners as well as advanced players, including group classes, private and semi-private lessons, and band.

Beginner Guitar 101

This 10-week group course is designed to teach key fundamentals and empower beginners to play their first song. Guitar 101 is for students who are brand new to the guitar. We start with the basics and provide a strong foundation for skill-building, confidence, and growth.

Private Guitar Lessons

In private lessons and semi-private lessons (shared instruction with two students), students get individual attention, tailored instruction, homework assignments, access to our digital library, and access to our practice tracking tools.

  • Weekly lessons are taught by experienced staff.
  • Our structured yet flexible curriculum builds foundations in theory as well as repertoire.
  • Students select and learn real songs—the songs they like! From rock to pop, blues, and country, our expansive and curated song library features many genres and works made famous by hundreds of contemporary and classic artists.
  • Younger students often start with early-childhood classes before transitioning into private lessons—we typically recommend beginning private lessons around age 7.

Play with Others by Joining a B2R Band

Combining guitar lessons with group performance is a key feature of the Bach to Rock Method. We encourage students to join bands, rehearse weekly, and perform in public showcases.

Once a student is matched with a band, the magic starts! Students who play in bands get better faster. They practice regularly (because of the best kind of peer pressure), and they build confidence while learning collaborative and problem-solving skills. Bach to Rock bands enhance collaboration, stage presence, and confidence—essential qualities for any aspiring guitarist.
