From the reviews
Excellent school. I started classical guitar at London studios last August. My instructor was Swede Larson. The quality of teaching was very high. I have had many music teachers in the past and Swede is one of the best: I went from no knowledge of the guitar to playing the Spanish Romance in the five months.
Our daughter, Ella, has taken guitar lessons from London Studios for the past 3 years. She has loved it! The teachers are positive, friendly and well qualified. Ella’s most favorite thing about London Studios is their Teen Band program.
Johnny has been the best guitar teacher ever... he has a system to understand the instrument and get your fingers to the point where the understanding is helpful. Plus he's great for some of the most rousing conversation that a fella can have!
I cannot say how much I love London Studios! Emily, Johnny, and Adrian are amazing. They have become like family to us. They bend over backwards to accommodate our scheduling needs and cater our lessons to each of as individuals versus a one size fits all method.
Selling or trading gear at London Studios
London Studios comes up for buying and trading used gear, going by their listing and players’ reviews. Two things make the trip go better. First, bring the whole package: the case or gig bag, the original tremolo arm or bridge parts, the paperwork if you have it — a complete rig is worth real money more than a bare instrument, and it saves the back-and-forth of "can you bring the case in?" Second, know that trade credit almost always beats the cash offer, usually by a healthy margin — if you're upgrading anyway, price your old gear as a trade against the new one before you take cash. Either way, expect the offer to be below what the gear sells for on the wall; the gap is the store's margin for setup, warranty, and sitting on it until the right buyer walks in.
Lessons at London Studios
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at London Studios. If you're signing up a beginner (or restarting yourself), a quick call ahead answers the three things that matter: which instruments they teach, whether the schedule has openings at the time you actually need, and what a first lesson costs. There's no wrong first guitar — a good teacher will happily work with whatever you walk in with, and a shop that teaches usually keeps affordable starter instruments on hand for exactly this reason.
