Our Mission

FirstGuitar exists to create an informative and enjoyable environment that is safe for parents, their children, and students of the guitar to begin and pursue their musical interests. Our goal is to create educational and informational resources that foster personal growth.

Our Vision

We envision FirstGuitar as a source of empowerment for students of the guitar, helping them to pursue and develop their musical potential, their dreams, and enjoy a lifetime of music. Our two-fold approach involves communicating with students directly and helping parents to empower their children.

Our Goals:

• To provide helpful, informative, and clear information so that parents and students of the guitar can make informed decisions regarding their musical development.
• To provide instruments and accessories that are very playable and well-crafted at fair market prices so that new and experienced players can develop their skills and achieve their goals.
• To dispel misinformation and hype associated with music, the music industry, and the guitar.
