This guy is THE MAN! Since starting lessons with Mike about 1/2 year ago, I've come to know him as…read morea professional instructor that clearly has a passion for teaching, and knows how to make guitar lessons enjoyable. Giving positive reinforcement when it is due, Mike's lessons are a blast, and they encourage me to practice at home. In addition to playing the acoustic guitar, we talk musical theory and history and how it motivates us to play the music we play. Pick Mike to be your instructor and you will acquire a proper teacher and a good friend. Cheers, Pete

I always get greeted at the Colorado Blvd. location and feel like a valued customer with someone always available for those pesky guitar and equipment questions there. Here, I wished they banned that damn front room where everyone seems to congregate at and get people on the floor engaging and making sales without pretension. If this was my business, everyone that walked into that store was a potential buyer adding to the bottom line even if it was a set of guitar picks! Sometimes you want to go to a brick and mortar store, bypassing all the online stuff and want to engage, learn and walk away that day with what you wanted. That is very important! It takes so many advertising dollars to get the customers in the door! Happy New Year Guitar Center!

The drum room has a decent selection of equipment, sets, cymbals and stuff but it does feel a bit disorganized and doesn't have an isolated room for trying out an acoustic set which is unfortunate. The employees there also all seem disinterested in helping out/answering questions. They were all either on their phones, talking amongst each other, or just didn't seem like they wanted to be there.

I can't recommend School of Rock Broomfield enough!!! We enrolled my son about 2 weeks after he…read moreturned 11 and it's one of the best decisions we've made for him. He is now 15 and recently had to leave SOR, but only because he is now in High School was not able to juggle all of his high school extra curricular activities as well as the SOR schedule. He plays guitar like a professional and that is all due to the fantastic instruction at SOR Broomfield. We are now looking for a new guitar teacher and it's been difficult to find one with the ability to teach children like the instructors at SOR do. We met with two instructors, who have each been playing guitar for 20+ years, turn down teaching my son (who has been playing guitar for less than 5 years) because my son knew more and played better than they do. No Joke!!! This is all due to SOR as he started playing guitar with them and has never been taught by anyone else. SOR is the real deal. If you have a child who is interested in music, sign them up! It did wonders for my son's self esteem and unlocked a very special talent in him that we otherwise may not have known he had.

I grew up in a musical family…read more I was a reluctant classical piano student for 10 years. On one hand, I was fortunate to have had lessons from one of the most renowned organists/pianists in the Washington, DC, metro area. On the other hand, I had little love for the keyboard or the music I was assigned to play. Nevertheless, I learned to appreciate good music and good musicians. The same year I quit the piano, a Gibson J-45 acoustical guitar arrived at Christmas. Like many teenagers, I day-dreamed about playing professionally without understanding what that required. Other things in life got in the way of guitar playing and the Gibson got sold. Forty years later, my wife and I were attending an art auction. The first item up for bid was a guitar with two months' worth of lessons. I made an opening bid... my wife gave me a surprised look... I didn't expect to win... I did. That's how I got started with Lyle Long - purely by chance. It's been one of the most satisfying, educational experiences in my life. I've studied under some exceptionally talented music teachers. Lyle stands at the top of that list for two reasons: his talent as an exceptional guitarist; but more so, because of his exceptional teaching skills. He has an uncanny ability to get to the essence of issues that frustrate music students. He does this on both an emotional and technical level. He has the unusual gift of being able to connect with both adults as well as young children. It is truly amazing to watch (or experience first-hand) how he translates complex music theory into easily understood concepts; guides students to understand these concepts with achievable techniques based upon their current skill levels; diagnoses errors and corrects habits; all of which combine towards building a strong foundation of confidence. For young people especially, I think acquiring confidence in something that they can value (and others value) is critical. I came to my first lessons with a lot of uncertainty about my technical capabilities and knowledge. Lyle literally started by returning me to a very basic level and showed me how much of the theory and techniques that I had learned many years earlier had actually gotten in the way of making me a better musician. I sometimes leave my lessons with thoughts about how very different my music life would have been if I'd had Lyle Long for a teacher forty years ago. If you are considering musical instruction for yourself, or for your children; at levels anywhere between beginner to professional, I highly recommend Lyle Long. You will not regret your decision.
