Learn Guitar With A Teacher Who Knows How To Help You Progress.
Whether you're picking up the guitar for the first time, getting back into playing, or ready to take your skills further, Scott Knight provides personalized instruction built around your ability, your goals, and the music you want to play.
35+ Years of Teaching Experience • Weekly Private Lessons • In-Person & Online
You're Not Looking For More Guitar Information.
You can find thousands of guitar videos online.
But a video can't listen to you play. It can't tell you why something isn't working. And it can't adjust the lesson around what you need next.
That's what a teacher does.
Your Guitar. Your Goals. Your Path.
No two students come to guitar with exactly the same goals.
Maybe you've never played before. Maybe you played years ago and want to get back into it. Maybe you know your way around the instrument but feel stuck and don't know what to work on next.
Your lessons shouldn't be built around where a generic course thinks you should be.
Scott works with you one-on-one to understand where you are, identify where you want to go, and help you build the path between the two.

You're Not Just Buying A Lesson. You're Working With A Teacher.
For more than 35 years, Scott Knight has helped guitarists develop their skills, understand their instrument and become more confident players.
His approach isn't about rushing through a predetermined curriculum. He listens to where you are, understands where you want to go, and builds the instruction around what will help you move forward.
The goal isn't simply to get you through another lesson. It's to help you become a better guitarist.
Real Students. Real Progress.
"After 20 years playing music professionally, I still find myself returning to fundamentals Scott taught me early on — they've stuck with me ever since."
"Working with Scott, I grew a lot as a player — especially as an improviser — and finally built a solid foundation on the fretboard."
"Scott does a great job tailoring lessons to your specific needs. I came in self-taught with some bad habits, and he got my playing to the next level."
