I have been saving up for a year now while practicing guitar by myself and I've goten to the stage where I feel stuck like I'm not making any progress.
I have decided I want to be taught now and don't know whether I should take private lessons or look for a music school to attend.
If it would be better to go to a music school and learn acoustic/jazz guitar where would be a good school to go?
I am in UK in the london area by the way.
Advice will be much appreciated.
It depends on the instructor. The late Craig Bolyn, one of the best guitarists I ever knew, easily on a par with Clapton, refused to teach anyone who owned a Silvertone or other cheap guitar with the strings a quarter of an inch from the frets. He himself played an old Les Paul, whose action made it possible for him to play with little effort. If you find a private instructor like that, he's worth every penny. I only wish I had taken lessons! (My consolation is that I became fluent on blues harp!)
