Guitar Center Manchester 1051 S. Willow St. Manchester, NH
Scott Cavanagh is a guitarist, composer, and educator who began playing at age 12 when his father (a professional jazz guitarist) gave him his first instrument and lessons. From there, he played in rock ‘n roll bands before deciding to study guitar seriously at Boston’s Berklee College of Music, from which he graduated with honors in 1986. While at Berklee, Scott developed an interest in jazz performance, and studied with long-time professors Steve Carter, Bill Bresnahan, Tom Szymczak, and Al Defino. From 1992-1994, Scott played with the “Merrimack New Hampshire Community Jazz Ensemble” before joining Manchester, NH-based “Moe Breton’s Big Band” from 1994-1998. During that period, he also was a member of “Pepper’d Jazz,” a jazz quintet led by New York vocalist Eddie Pepper. Since then, Scott perfoms with the "Freese Brothers Big Band" and enjoys playing "gypsy swing" in the style of Django Reinhardt. In 2009, Scott graduated cum laude from Southern New Hampshire University with an MBA in International Business. From 2010-2017, Scott also worked at Berklee College of Music in the Admissions Department, and can coach prospective students due to his familiarity with the Berklee guitar proficiency requirements and the College’s mission, academic programs, and admission requirements.

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.
