The guitar: acoustic or electric; played seated with a foot stool for support or standing with a strap around your neck; with its strings picked with fingernails and fingertips or a plectrum (or guitar pick); in classical music, flamenco, jazz, pop, rock. The list of options is endless. And such is the versatility and adaptability of this beautiful instrument.

The Benefits
No one can question the fundamental role music education plays to the upbringing of a child. Several studies have shown that children that learn how to play an instrument also excel in the classroom. Creativity, hand coordination, multitasking, the ability to stay focused for a long period of time, physical stamina, patience and heightened sense of hearing are only a few of the very important advantages of playing music. But these are not limited to childhood; adults who take up an instrument also enjoy such benefits and are practically guaranteed a sharp mind later in life.
One of the principal reasons one would decide to learn how to play the guitar is for the sheer pleasure of it. The soothing sound of its strings will allow you to relax and unwind following a long day at school or at work. And if your practice room feels too lonely, then teaming up with a singer, drummer and a bass player is bound to get you excited. The possible ensemble combinations are endless and the musical styles and repertoire for the guitar are equally vast.
