Where We Are

We're on the second floor of The Shirt Factory in Glens Falls. The building went up in 1902 as a men's shirt factory and made shirts until 1996. Today it's home to more than 70 studios, shops and galleries, and now a guitar shop. Use the Cooper Street entrance and take the stairs up. If stairs are difficult or you're bringing in something you don't want to carry up, call or text us and we'll arrange access.

Warren County is one city, eleven towns and a lot of forest: Glens Falls in the southeast corner, Queensbury with the county offices, then Lake George, Warrensburg, Bolton and the rest of the park going north.

Who's Teaching

Travis Gray of Wild Adriatic fame teaches here. Reach out through the contact page to book. Full background on his instructor page.

How Lessons Work

Travis listens to what you want and builds a plan for it. He'll work on the songs you actually want to play, the foundation underneath them, technique, riffs, songwriting, or getting ready to perform, whatever the goal is. The first session is about where you're starting and where you want to go. See the main lessons page, or what to expect from your first guitar lesson.

Kids' Lessons

Around age 8 is a realistic starting point for most kids. There's more in guitar lessons for kids.

Before the First Lesson

If you don't have a guitar yet, come in first. We'll help you find one from our new and used inventory. A setup before lessons start removes the biggest obstacle beginners hit: a guitar that's physically fighting them.

For a first guitar, the beginner guide is the live list of new guitars under $300 here with prices, and the buying page is the reasoning behind picking one.

Getting to the Shop

From the northern part of the county (Lake George Village, Bolton Landing, Warrensburg, Chestertown), Route 9 south into Glens Falls. From Queensbury, Route 9 or Aviation Road, 10 minutes. From the eastern and southern county, I-87 Exit 18 lands you close to the Shirt Factory on Cooper Street. Free parking in the back lot, Cooper Street entrance, stairs up to the second floor.

Where Lessons Start

Lessons start with the music you want to play and work backward from there. That might mean getting a chord change clean, tightening your timing, understanding why a riff works, learning your way around the fretboard, working through a solo, or figuring out how to turn an idea into a song.
