Don Banks Music
Don Banks Music offers guitar lessons to release your inner rock star. In town since 1968 and owned and operated by the man himself, Don Banks has assembled a group of teachers with a dizzying amount of academic and on-stage experience. After journeying upstairs to a personal lesson room, pick the instructor´s brain on everything from speed metal to the bebop scale. Only a beginner? They´ll have you up and jamming in no time. Experienced player? Who among us can´t use some extra knowledge? They´ve heard and seen it all, and they cater to students ranging in age from infant to retired. Best of all, the knowledge is reasonably priced, so you´ll have some cash left over to visit the instrument shop downstairs and grab those extra strings and picks every gigging guitarist needs.
