Inside The Latin Guitar Course
November 2, 2021
If you are interested in playing Latin guitar you have to take the guitar fundamentals course and all of the level 1 Modules. You have to learn how to play on the acoustic/classical guitar and learn the basics like chords, notes and scales. The time frame varies, but it usually take 6-18 months to be proficient or comfortable enough to play. This also includes finger-picking and strumming which requires a lot of practice.
In general if you graduate the guitar fundamentals and level 1 modules course, it will take 26-32 months with regular practice or just over 2 years.
