Learn Guitar or Ukulele Faster and Have More Fun with Guitarlo's Adult Lessons 🎸
Play the Music You Love and Gain Confidence in Every Lesson!
If you're like many aspiring guitarists, you’ve probably tried learning how to play guitar from YouTube tutorials, only to find yourself lost in a sea of conflicting advice and overwhelming information.
Maybe you've even taken a few traditional lessons at a music school, but the focus on tedious music theory drained all the excitement out of playing.
The rigid structure and uninspired teaching left you feeling more like a robot than a musician.
You bought a guitar with dreams of playing your favorite songs, but now it just collects dust in the corner.
Your fingers hurt, your progress is slow, and each practice session feels like a chore rather than a joy.
You might even question if you're too old, too busy, or just not talented enough to play guitar.
Sound familiar? You’re not alone!
Meet your Teacher
Hola! I’m Giancarlo — Your teacher at Guitarlo. You and I are about to go on an epic journey together.
Teaching someone how to play music is a huge responsibility that I take very seriously 🧐 because done right, it can ignite a lifelong passion for music. Done wrong, it can make learning guitar seem hard and unattainable.
From listening to the stories of my students, I think that most teachers overwhelm their students with things that don’t matter or inspire early on in their musical journey (like complicated music theory or textbook songs) ...
They replicate a school class (urgh), making learning guitar feel like a chore rather than a creative, enjoyable experience that it should be!
That’s why my approach to teaching is different — I teach people to play guitar by focusing on actually playing and having fun with the instrument. My way avoids meaningless information and instead uses games and challenges to make learning enjoyable.
This is why when we team up, you’ll learn to play songs that you’re interested in from the very first lesson (have a weird song in mind? Even better!). You’re going to focus on learning things that matter to you in your own personal journey, build your confidence, and have so much fun along the way.
I believe that’s exactly how it should be to learn to play guitar (seriously, just read my testimonials!)
My classes create a safe space where you can feel encouraged to make mistakes, express themselves, and always end each lesson on a high.
With Guitarlo, you’ll…

“Giancarlo is THE BEST teacher that I’ve ever had, and I’ve had many!
From the very first lesson, everything changed. He has this incredible way of making complex things easy to understand and his classes are so much fun. In just a few weeks, things that I used to struggle with became my warmup. My friends and family are amazed at my quick progress but the real change is how I feel about myself. Thanks to him, I’ve gained a confidence that spills over to other areas of my life.
He’s more than just a skilled teacher; he’s a mentor who believes in you and pushes you to achieve what seems impossible. My only wish is that I found him sooner. I promise that won’t regret choosing him as your guitar teacher!”

“Working with Giancarlo for the 6 months or so that we worked together was pure joy, I felt gently pushed, highly encouraged and really seen in my music.
GC tailors the classes to his students and I loved that his style is more about "learning to fish " rather than "giving them the fish". I noticed that during my time working with him clear upgrades in my playing ability and confidence.
I could seriously not recommend this guy more highly. Oh and by the way - if playing guitar for performance brings stuff for you - he is also an incredibly empathetic and kind human who will coach you through stuff with your music if you ask for that support.”
