Why choose us

Hi I’m Nick Studholme and welcome to the Cheshire Guitar School website. I am a guitar tutor based in Winsford, Cheshire.

I teach all styles of electric and acoustic guitar. I also teach bass. All lessons are customised for your specific needs and take place in a relaxed, friendly environment.

01. Passion

I love my role as a guitar tutor and I’m determined to help you get the best results from your practice. I have played in a wide variety of bands over the years, thus I have extensive gigging and studio recording experience.

02. Professionalism

I have been teaching for over 25 years throughout many schools, in partnership with the organisation Music for Life, the private primary school – The Firs and in the private music school – Tafelmusik. I am CRB/DBS checked.

03. Patience

I help beginning and frustrated guitarists achieve their goals and make fast progress. My aim is to keep frustration to a minimum and make the process as enjoyable as possible. Happy guitarists play the guitar more, so improvement tends to be faster.

02. Professionalism

I have been teaching for over 25 years throughout many schools, in partnership with the organisation Music for Life, the private primary school – The Firs and in the private music school – Tafelmusik. I am CRB/DBS checked.

Remember this? The first time I shared Glenn’s progress 🎸Before coming to Cheshire Guitar School and starting lessons Glenn couldn’t play a single note! Fast forward to now and he’s made huge progress!! What’s even better is that Glenn has been recording his own journey along the way and sharing it with me.This week I’m going to post a few of those clips so you can see just how far he’s come … and how far you could go too if you started now! Everyone starts somewhere. Glenn’s proof of that 🎶👏🏻#cheshireguitarschool #beginnerguitar #learntoplayguitar #adultguitarlessons #beginnerguitarlessons #progressnotperfection ... See MoreSee Less
