Why not start guitar classes today?
Guitar is considered one of the most easiest instrument to learn; with three basic chords (the minor, C major, E major for example), you can easily start playing genres like folk rock and American guitar songs.

The guitar is over 4000 years old, played with a pick, with six vibrating strings stretched along a soundboard and pinched on a fret neck. All current and past music use the guitar.
Legendary songs, such as: Forbidden Games, Come As You Are, Stairway To Heaven, Stand by Me, Nothing Else Matters, No Woman No Cry, Sweet Home Alabama or Another Brick In The Wall and Californication are systematically included in all possible musical arrangements by guitarists who want to start or improvise their playing.
