Acoustic guitar is one of the most popular instruments to start with. It is easy to enjoy, but still needs the right foundation.
At Capen, students can usually start playing the acoustic guitar from around 5 to 6 years old, once their hands are ready to hold the guitar comfortably.

Frequently Asked Questions
What age can students start acoustic guitar?
We usually recommend around 5 to 6 years old and above, once the hands are large enough to hold the guitar comfortably.
Do I need my own guitar?
You can attend lessons at our studio, but having your own acoustic guitar at home will help with regular practice. Our team can advise on suitable options if needed.
What is the difference between acoustic and classical guitar?
Acoustic guitar uses steel strings and is commonly used for pop, folk, worship, and contemporary songs. Classical guitar uses nylon strings and focuses more on formal technique, fingerstyle playing, music reading, and classical pieces.
Can I learn songs I like?
Yes. Lessons can include songs you enjoy, while still helping you build proper chords, rhythm, strumming, and technique.
Do I have to take exams?
No. Exams are optional. Some students take exams for structure, while others learn for enjoyment, songs, or performance.
