GBThe Best Guitar Education Ever 🙌🎸🎶 This way of learning the guitar has been such an amazing experience. I appreciate the Sonora team and respect their mission. It truly has been a dream come true for me. I gave up guitar at a younger age due to the lack of practice structure and feedback. The curriculum, masterclasses, open sessions, and 1:1 mentorship provides a constructive game changing feedback loop that is unmatched.

GBBrilliant learning path: Still part of my daily schedule after three years. I started with Sonora back when it was GMI and i've never looked back. I was in a self-taught rut as a player and needed to go back to the beginning. With many years of playing experience i needed a course that understood a seasoned professional needing to unlock a new path without losing my musical voice. My mentor TJ was very insightful and really helped me develop a deeper understanding of my instrument and harmony. Playing should be fun and Sonora is a super enjoyable platform to learn with - I'm still using it daily!

GBLove Sonora Guitar Intensive Love Sonora Guitar Intensive! Thanks to Spencer, Ila, and especially my Prep Class mentor Curt for moving me beyond the perpetual beginner stage! I have enjoyed both the Prep Class and The Intermediate online program. The modules are great and so are the Facebook Classes. I look forward to working with a mentor again in 2024.

GBI can't overstate how amazing this… I can't overstate how amazing this program has been for me. I was a student in January of 2020. The pandemic hit hard just a few months later. I went from working 40 hours a week to 80 trying to save my business. During that time, I didn't have much time for guitar or this program. But thanks to Spencer, Ila and the entire Sonora team, the platform stayed open for me (and continues to stay open). This allowed me to run through it at my own pace, which proved to be perfect. Flash forward to the present, and I am a better player than I have ever been thanks to the intuitive lessons, the amazing software and the mentorship of some truly great musicians. Highly recommended!

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!
