Expert Guitar Lessons Edinburgh
Established by professional guitarist and educator Joshua Seex, our Edinburgh-based guitar tuition service combines over 15 years of teaching experience with formal qualifications in modern musicianship. Holding an HND in Modern Musicianship and a 1st Class Honours Degree in Popular Music, I have performed at prestigious venues including the EICC and Usher Hall while developing a structured yet flexible teaching methodology. Our tailored one-to-one and group lessons focus on eliminating bad habits through personalized instruction, catering to students from complete beginners to advanced players. The curriculum accommodates all musical styles - rock, blues, jazz, country and more - while emphasizing technical development through techniques like fingerstyle, strumming and advanced methods. As author of the acclaimed 'Plectrum Studies for the Serious Guitarist', I provide unique learning resources that complement practical tuition. Lessons are available face-to-face in our Edinburgh teaching studio or via online video sessions, with flexible scheduling options to suit individual learning paces and preferences.

Josh is my first guitar teacher and I'm really enjoying our lessons. We've covered a lot of different aspects of guitar since I started and I feel my confidence is growing. The post lesson videos keep me on track too. I always leave each lesson feeling uplifted and motivated to learn more, thank you.

Josh has an incredible amount of ability and knowledge, while also doing a fantastic job of passing it on to his students. He has helped me with diverse areas such as solo construction, exam preparation, advanced music theory and its application on the guitar. Highly recommended!

Joshua has been an inspirational guitar teacher to my laid back, 15 year only son! He was not encouraged at school by the music department even though he showed an interest. As the lessons seem to be tailored to the pupils own abilities and musical tastes he has thoroughly enjoyed and learnt alot in his 18 months of guitar lessons with Joshua.

I've been getting guitar lessons with Josh for about a year now. Not only is he a great guitarist but he is also a great teacher. He is always happy to teach you new songs that you're into. Would highly recommend him.
