GB$5k without a single guitar lesson and they kept every penny!!! I paid them $5k to get my "guitar intensive" journey started. Once I had shown interest after many months of borderline spam texts, they went all in. I was pushed to pay the $5k as fast as possible because you can't put a price on your dreams. What's it costing every day you DON'T purchase the membership. Well it was near my birthday so with some help from my parents, I scheduled the $5k of payments across 2 or 3 payments within 2 weeks. It gets blurry from there. I had a few calls with various admin to figure out how they were going ro proceed with my custom experience. It ended up taking a month or so before I had my first one on one. Actually more like two months because ai asked to cancel after missing my 2nd video call with my "mentor" due to technical difficulties. My computer wouldn't play audio through their app and so they had me call on speakerphone. This wasn't exactly practical so after the weekend I called and asked for a partial refund. I hadn't had a single lesson yet mind you. I knew that they had invested a handful of calls in to me and I was embarrassed with my technical skills in fixing the problem so I offered them $1,000 for their time. Well that was a mistake because it turned into a very unprofessional race to the bottom where all he offered to refund me was $2200. $2,200!!! From $5,000!!! They have a guarantee where if any student isn't happy they refund your total cost. This is just a LIE. Nothing came of anything and I can't even sue them as what you ultimately pay for is to get on a group call list with no physical location. Be smarter than me. These scumbags kept every penny and ignored my further contact đŸ˜¤ Spencer is a piece of poop and one day I hope to find you mother lover and give u a big hug you funky fan get!

GBThey deliver a wealth of instruction I've been a Sonora student for over a year and I have definitely progressed a lot using their resources. It's pretty pricey, but they deliver great instruction and a step-wise curriculum that appeals to me.

GB5 Stars 5 Stars Sonora doesn't just offer you a course and then leave you to your own devices. From the very beginning they have been very involved in my progress. Even before I started working with my mentor, I still had a Sonora rep (Mike) checking in on me very regularly. I can't speak highly enough of my mentor Robb Cappelletto. I feel like Robb is the teacher I've always been looking for. He has the perfect juxtaposition of technicality and musicality. He has a music first approach that I greatly appreciate but is able to teach the technicals in a way that makes them usable.

GBCan't recommend this program enough! Can't recommend this program enough!! I have been playing for almost two decades but there was a point where I got stuck and was not improving much. I was stuck at that plateau for over 5 years and almost quit playing. But join this program has revived my love for guitar playing and in helping piece together elements that I learned was missing. Trying to get better one day at a time.

GBOne of the best decisions I've made One of the best decisions I've made. The cost of the program at the time of my participation was roughly the equivalent of 60-minute weekly private lessons for one (to two) years. I benefited immensely from the sequencing and independent pacing of the curriculum and learned guitar in a way I had not been able to through self-led study. When I had more time, I progressed very quickly; and when I had a baby and had to adjust my practice commitments, it was right there, ready whenever I was. Three years later, I find myself wanting to go back through certain points of the program to further deepen my skills. And, unlike private lessons, I can still utilize the program for study. It's not a one-time benefit!
