I've thoroughly enjoyed getting guitar lessons here. James is a great teacher and you can truly tell that he enjoys what he does and loves seeing people progress. They are flexible for any and all of life's scheduling conflicts and have worked very well with all of my comments and concerns. They can cover a wide range of genres, ages, and have everyone's best interests in mind to get the best out of their time. I look forward to my lesson every week.

I have been taking lessons here since ~ 2018 and my playing, knowledge, and enjoyment have improved greatly. I find the format of playing with a group to be much better than previous private lessons at other places. The instructors are excellent players and teachers and clearly love what they do. I always look forward to lesson night as a highlight of my week!
Thank you so much, Chris! We've truly enjoyed working with you over the last 6 years, and are so proud of not only how far you've come, but also all the work you've put in to get there! It is always a pleasure any time we get to see you : ) Cheers to another year of progress, fun, and making memories!
before I went to nothville guitar lessons I was interested in music, I wouldn't have called it a passion. This all changed. This place helped me understand not just what to learn but also the fastest and most effecitve way to learn it with out over working yourself. Because of Northville Guitar Lessons I learned barre chords and was able to implement them as I could open chords in under 3 days. I also learned how to solo better by matching my notes to the backing track( I don't think I could have ever learned this by my self). I could not recommend this place more it turned my interest in music to a love of it.
Thank you so much, Ian! We have loved having you as a student, and are truly proud of all that you have accomplished, in such a short amount of time 👏 It’s been a joy and pleasure to watch you grow into a musician!
Northville Guitar Lessons is by far the best place for guitar lessons! Our daughter started lessons at a music place in Plymouth that did not teach her anything. We came to Mr. James at Northville Guitar Lessons where she almost immediately started playing. He truly knows how to teach guitar. Our daughter plays so beautifully now. We highly recommend Mr. James to anyone looking for guitar lessons. He really is the best of the best. Don’t waste your time or money going anywhere else.
Thank you so much, Alivia! Your review means so much to us <3 We love having your daughter here with us- she's such an absolute angel to have in class! We're so proud of all the work she's put in, and continues to put in...her growth has been wonderful to watch and be apart of! Thank you for trusting us to teach her guitar!
I cannot explain how amazing everyone here is. I had a horrible experience at guitar center when I first started learning guitar and then I found Northville Guitar. Emily is amazing to work with and James is an absolutely incredible teacher and an even better human being. If you’ve decided to learn guitar and want to have a ton of fun while learning from the best this is the place.
Thank you so much, Brent! Your words mean the world to us! You are an absolute pleasure to have in our guitar family. We’re so proud of how far you’ve come…truly, you’re doing amazing, and we hope you’re proud of yourself, as well.
There aren't enough stars to give James & Paul... they are amazing instructors and great people. The lessons they give are always building upon your current skills and most importantly, I have a great time. I cannot recommend Northville Guitar enough.
Thank you so much, Rob! We love being able to help people grow in their current skill level, and help guide them forward, as well. Having people like you here makes it all worth it; you're always a pleasure to be around! We're so proud of all the progress you've made...looking forward to continuing this journey with you!
