6-Week Beginner Guitar Course
February 2, 2022


Saturdays at 9a // February 12th - March 19th

Seize your Saturdays! Owner Marcus LaVake invites you to his FREE 6-week group course for beginners, a $150 value. By the end, you'll be able to play "Ring of Fire" and be feeling pretty comfortable on your six-string! You will succeed!

There's no purchase needed, no RSVP, and no prior experience necessary. We're here to spread the gift of music. So grab a friend and your guitar and swing over to Haggerty's! All ages are welcome but children under the age of 12 must be accompanied by a parent. (We'll have the coffee on for you.)

Picking up a guitar and making beautiful music is an incredible feeling. If you can't make it to the class, feel free to follow along with our recordings, added each week. 

WEEK 1 (February 12th)


Our first class covers how to hold your guitar correctly, common problems, and the basics on forming chords. Download the Week 1 Handout to follow along!
