Cameron Lodge
Distance: mi
Guitar Center Denver 1585 S Colorado Blvd Denver, CO
Cameron has always been the sort of person who eats, sleeps, and breathes guitar. Born to a musical family, Cameron spent his teenage years studying and building his chops with renowned metal virtuoso Matthew Mills before enrolling at Shenandoah Conservatory, where he graduated with a Bachelor's in Music, Production, and Recording Tech with a specific focus on jazz guitar. After graduation, Cameron immediately started gigging as much as possible, opening for artists from Wale to Blue Oyster Cult, honing his skills in a wide variety of styles: rock, jazz, funk, blues, indie, and metal, to name a few. When not gigging, Cameron enjoys teaching guitar and sharing all he's gained from his vast experience to each and every lesson. Cameron loves teaching players of all ages and ability levels; his number-one goal is to help people find greater joy when they make music by gaining new skills and tools for self-expression. After all, music is fun, and Cameron's teaching style reflects that. He is equally comfortable providing drum accompaniment to a beginner for a rousing rendition of Green Day, discussing how to use the mixolydian mode to spice up your blues licks, going over the finer points of sweep picking, or helping you capture the tones you hear in your head using amps and pedals.See the Lessons desk to learn more about how Cameron can help you take the next leap on your musical journey.

Frequently Asked Questions
Each instructor customizes lessons to ensure you are learning what you like and having fun. Your instructor will start you slowly, introducing new concepts each week, plus give you exercises or easy songs to play to keep you learning at home.
Learning an instrument is an enriching and rewarding experience that creates lifelong benefits, including increased self-esteem and the boosting of memory. Additionally, benefits for school-age individuals can include improved coordination, the expanding of social skills, and higher scores in math, reading and language.
30-minute lessons allow young or beginner students to learn the basics of the instrument and start playing songs. 60-minute lessons are ideal for more advanced students looking to progress faster and focus on the finer points of technique.
This varies by age and the type of goals the student has set out to achieve. However, most new students usually spend 15–30 min. practicing daily, while advanced students can practice for an hour or more each day in between lessons.
Our flexible curriculum allows students of all skill levels to experience growth. We help create a foundational understanding of music theory through the style of music you want to play. Our instructors will work to understand your goals and passions, and make sure you are on the path to learning what you want at your own speed.
Our Lessons staff will work with you to determine your current skill level, stylistic interest and ambitions. We'll then help you choose an instructor who best suits your style and goals. If at any point, you'd like to change instructors, let us know. Our weekly monitoring of progress and wide-ranging curriculum means you can switch to any of our qualified instructors, or another instrument, without missing a beat.
