Jace has been a great instructor. Just learning acoustic guitar for the first time now that I turned 50. Jace has been patient teaching me not only how to play but also to understand the fundamentals and theory behind the music.My 10 year old nephew also started lessons with Jace on electric guitar, Jace keeps him interested and he is really enjoying his lessons and making great progress.Adkins guitar is affordable and the instructors are top notch, can’t recommend them enough.

I found the courage to take piano soon after retiring. Along with my love of instrumental music, and in an attempt to ward off cognitive decline, and keep a very arthritic right hand moving, I have found the perfect teacher in Stephanie.Stephanie has created a very calm and inspiring atmosphere in her studio.She is such a talent ( which could be intimidating, but is not at all) and her approach to teaching me , as an older adult , has heightened my desire to learn.I would recommend Stephanie to all wishing to learn the piano. I look forward to having my grandson in her studio one day soon.

My daughter takes piano lessons with Stephaine O’Brien. She’s a fantastic teacher, kind, patient and knowledgeable. The kiddo has improved her skill set and understanding tremendously since being taught by Stephanie. We are so pleased. The space is conveniently located with plenty of parking and easy to find.

Stephanie Cary O’Brian is an AMAZING, patient, professional piano instructor. Our son (8) has grown TREMENDOUSLY since taking instruction with Stephanie. I can’t say enough about her ability to meet her students where they’re at, and the value and communication she provides. She’s a wonderful teacher regardless of age or ability. Watching her work with my son melts my heart! I can’t say enough about Stephanie as a top-notch musician and instructor!

I had always wanted to learn how to play piano but had zero experience with music so I was fairly hesitant. I found Adkins and finally took the leap! Im so glad I did. Stephanie is an amazing teacher. Im only 3 lessons in and have already learned so much. I would definitely recommend Adkins for anyone looking to learn an instrument!

Seven years ago I bought a guitar...that guitar sat collecting dust more than it was touched. This year I decided it was time to take learning guitar seriously. I had taken lessons in the past and tried self paced learning online but what I learned in those never stuck. I found out about Adkins Guitar through searching online and reading reviews. I gave it a shot and called and funny enough they were moving to a new building that was even closer to me. It was meant to be! The studios space is super nice and well maintained. Special shout out to Zach who has been my guitar instructor. 4 months later and I’m still taking weekly lessons and practicing consistently. Zach has been encouraging, makes things so easy to understand, and makes learning the guitar fun. You can tell he just absolutely loves guitar and being able to teach it to other people. Could not recommend this place or Zach enough. If you’ve read this far just call already. It’s worth it.

My son began beginner guitar lessons a few months ago and we are very pleased with his progress. Zach is a patient and thorough teacher. He relates well to my 12 year old and always keeps him motivated to keep working. Zach has a wonderful ability to adapt each student’s style of learning and teach from there. I highly recommend him!

We have been taking guitar with Zach for two years and now just started with Stephanie on the violin. We love both instructors. Would recommend to anyone at any level. Stephanie just started with my 6 year old. She is patience, friendly and knowledgeable. Wonderful place to grow and learn an instrument.

I encourage anyone wanting lessons to seek Zach out. He is an amazingly talented player and has the ability to translate those techniques in a way anyone can understand. Not just a shredder, he can play blues, rock, melodic leads, the list goes on and on. He will open up the fretboard for anyone seeking to improve their playing. I have found he observes the threshold of ability and pushes you just beyond that. He will also make tweaks that seem minor to your technique that pay huge dividends later. As an example, grip during vibrato and bending, pick advice, strumming technique, etc. He is punctual and professional and enjoyable to work with and learn from.

Ive been with Zach for a little under a year now and am starting to feel comfortable enough with my playing to actually start posting videos and signing up for gigs (no musical understanding at all previously). Honestly, if I wouldve had any real time to practice, Zach couldve gotten me to this point in 3 months.What I love about having Zach as a teacher is that he really is on a whole different level than anyone else Ive ever seen. The more I learn from him and on my own about guitar and the world of music in general, the more I realize just how impressive he really is.It gives me a lot of comfort to have a teacher who has the answer to any question I have and the skill to be a role model I will never outgrow. Make no mistake, Zach is an expert on guitar, music theory, chord progression, live performance, etc. Beyond that, I think he is a rocker at heart, but he truly loves all music. Theres nothing you can bring him, country, pop, metal, whatever, that he wont be able to help you learn and make sound great. (He might even surprise you and know every song you name by heart and have some explanation about the meaning and background of it.)People talk about how many hours they have into guitar. How about a lifetime? Thats what Zachs got, and thats why I would never go anywhere else.

I definitely recommend taking lessons here at Adkins guitar. The lessons here are awesome, and Zach will take the time to teach you everything you need to become an awesome player. I feel like I’ve already learned so much in just a few months from his lessons! Zach will figure out where you are at as a player, and work on your skills and help you learn more advanced stuff as you continue, to help you meet your goals as a guitarist. Other instruments lessons are also offered here as well! Everyone here is super friendly and helpful as well. I highly recommend taking lessons here at Adkins Guitar!

Review №23

I can not say enough positive things about Adkins Guitar!!!! Both Zach and Steve are such great teachers and so patient with their students. They teach guitar in a way that gets kids to love it and feel confident in what they are playing, then goes back to teach the music theory about what they learned. My son has been taking lessons with Zach for only 6 months and already can play so many songs. He has created a true passion for not only guitar, but music as well. If you or your child is looking for a great teacher, you will not be disappointed at Adkins Guitar.

Been taking lessons for 3 months. I am older and have just recently decided to learn guitar. Zach has been patient and understanding. We found a common starting point and have worked from there. He makes the lessons interesting, and does not try to intimidate. This has been a win for this old dog. Though I feel sorry for him having to listen to all my sour notes. I would recommend.

I’ve been attending lessons with Zach for about 5 months now and it’s absolutely turned my guitar fame around. I’ve been sitting on a plateau for years and it’s amazing how simple and direct he is. It’s easy to digest and if you do your homework - YOU - ARE - GOING - TO - GET - IT!Patience is key, and aside from that he’s there for you every step of the way!

After receiving a guitar as a Christmas gift for a second time, the pressure was finally on to finally learn how to play. I turned to Zach for lessons knowing that left to Youtube, and my own devices, the second guitar would end up donated just like the first! Being an older student I was a bit skeptical that my time had passed but with Zach’s help I can confidently tell people that I can actually now play the guitar. Zach’s approach is great. He meets his students where they are, and works with them to create an environment of success. He makes learning fun, and gives you leeway to find music that suits your style while also pushing you into new areas that expand your range. I would highly recommend Zach for anyone looking to have fun while learning guitar.

Cannot say enough about what a great experience my 13 year old daughter has had here with guitar lessons. Zach is a very talented individual, both musically and in his ability to connect and teach my daughter that is easy for her to understand and keeps her excited about practicing and coming back each week. Lessons are affordable and fun. We definitely made the right decision enrolling her here.

Review №34

I have been playing guitar for the last 18 years or so. I have always learned through tabs or online videos. I am a decent player but have not progressed in my playing in years. I wanted to get out of this rut and learn how to be a better player. I really wanted to learn some theory and how scales apply to playing actual music. When trying to learn through online videos, I felt like I could never find anything I could relate to and fully understand how it applies to playing actual songs.I reached out to Zach after searching for a guitar teacher that I could actually sit in front of and learn this stuff. He explains everything so clearly that it all started clicking very fast for me. My playing has improved dramatically and I am having even more fun playing guitar than I ever have.I also bought a new guitar with a Floyd Rose and Zach was able to explain how it works and show me some really cool tricks with it. His guitar tech, Steve, did a full set up on it and it plays like a dream!All around fantastic experience. I have learned a ton and am very happy and satisfied with the service they have given me!

Review №35

We live a fair distance from Omaha and had to search far and wide to find guitar lessons options for our 15 year old son. Stumbled across Adkins Guitar, read some reviews, and decided to give them a shot. Hes been taking double length lessons with Zach twice a month for the last four months and his progress has been amazing. He has gone from strumming a few random chords before to comfortably playing a half dozen or so songs now. Even better, his attitude has changed from why-try-its-too-hard to hmm-maybe-I-can. As the father of a not-so-confident teenager that means the world to me. Highly recommended!

Zach is an amazing guy and a superb guitar teacher. I have been taking guitar lessons with Zach for the last 3 months, the lessons are always fun and I always look forward to my sessions with him. I absolutely love how he approaches teaching guitar and is definitely helping me get a good grasp over the music theory. As a result, I have started picking up things quicker and have seen a tremendous improvement in myself as a guitar player and as a student of music. Zach is an absolute gem! You rock, man!

Zach has been teaching my 12 year old for a couple of months and his progress has been amazing! He knew an entire song in less than a month. My son is always talking about how smart, talented, fun and helpful Zach is. We checked around with a couple of places before we landed on Adkins Guitar & Music lessons, and this one was the best fit, and remains to be so! I’d highly recommended this place for any aspiring musicians!

We came to Zack after a few months at a different guitar studio. My daughter could only play a couple of notes. Now after 7 months with Zack, she is playing whole songs. She is progressing and feeling more confident all the time. She is only 7. Zack is a wonderful teacher.

I have been playing guitar as a hobby for 10 years, and had been looking for instruction to take my playing to the next level. Zach was able to quickly and accurately pinpoint where my strengths and weaknesses were, tailor instruction to my specific needs, and break down complex ideas and lessons into easily understandable pieces. The atmosphere here is extremely welcoming and everyone is super down to earth. I’ve made fantastic progress in just a couple months.Flexibility in scheduling and payment options made me feel like their number one priorities were my growth and comfort as a player and a student.

I re-started playing guitar after a 30+ year break. Zach was amazing and knew exactly how to inspire me to get started again and STICK with it this time (I tried one other time 20 years ago and gave up). Ive been playing now for almost 3 months and am so pleased with my progress. He inspires me to want to become a better player each week!

Review №43

Zach is very, very talented I must first say. No doubt about it. His knowledge about the true fundamentals behind what creates good music shows every time he picks up a guitar. Im extremely satisfied with his lessons that have helped me to get from where I was at, to where I really want to go with this skill. Hes helped me eliminate quite a few bad habits I picked up over the years and I can already tell how much its improved me in the last month. It doesnt matter if you are a beginner, or experienced guitar player, Zach can teach all wide ranges of abilities. I must recommend anyone that wishes to become better then they were, and have that passion and drive to pursuit your dream of becoming the best musician you wish to be.

Review №45

Zach is an incredible talent. While there are many incredible guitar players out there, not all of them have the precise knowledge and ability to teach their skills to others. Zach excels at understanding what level the student is currently at and, after discussing where the student would like to end up, finds the best way to teach in accordance with his or her learning style and experience. This is not your typical learn chords out of a book lesson. Get ready to learn to rock!

Ive played guitar by ear all my life and finally decided to get some theory. Within two lessons Zack Adkins had me running pentatonic scales AND arpeggios up and down the neck, but in a way that I could almost instantly use in actual playing. Best of both worlds...theory that I can use. Great stuff from a great instructor.

I’ve been playing guitar for approximately 35 years, started lessons with Zach to learn something new hopefully and improve what I do. Best choice I’ve made in longer than I can remember, not only is Zach extremely knowledgeable about the guitar and music theory but he found the spot to start with me, and he taught me more in a month than I could’ve imagined. Fantastic teacher, explains things understandably and clear. I can’t recommend Zach enough to ANYONE looking to either start learning from the beginning or anyone who’s experienced to up their game. Zach is your man

Review №54

Zack is a great guitar teacher. Im 28 and I grew up playing violin, viola, and piano. Guitar was something Ive always wanted to learn, so I contacted Zack and gave it a try.He is very patient and allows my 4 year old son to attend lessons with me for a very small additional fee, because I was interested in simply exposing him to music.He is very passionate about what he does, and it shows. I would highly recommend him to anyone in the area. It can be a little intimidating starting a new instrument as an adult, but he has taught me that it doesnt matter what age you are. You are never too old to learn something new, especially guitar.

Review №55

Ive had several guitar instructors over the years and Zach is by far the best out there. What really sets him apart from other teachers is he develops lessons based on the students skill level and goals, and explains his lessons and the reasoning behind them very well. He offers encouragement at every small improvement and is extremely patient. An amazing yet humble guitarist who genuinely cares about the success of his students, and an all around good dude. Dont waste time or money on any other teacher in town, Zach is the man!

One of the most influential and determined dudes ever. He isnt just teaching you a guitar lesson, hes teaching you his passion.

Review №64

Used to be too prideful to take lessons; thinking that I was seasoned enough. But Zach was able to captivate my passion for guitar by intriguing me with his knowledge. After just a few lessons I can already tell Im more confident at open mic nights and improv sessions due solely to what hes been teaching me theory wise. Lets also not forget that he caters to my personal style of playing and helps me with the fundamental mechanics of how I need to play the guitar to be most efficient and comfortable for how I play. Typically I dread leaving the house, especially during winter, but seeing the progress Im making on guitar has me anxious for each new session. Hes very professional as well as flexible with schedules, so its incredibly easy to set up a time slot that truly works best for you. His pricing is also very fair where Im able to pay per month and not even notice a dent in my wallet. This guy is one of the best.

Review №65

Ive had a guitar for 20 years and never learned to play it. I knew some chords but couldnt piece them together so I would get frustrated and not play for a while then try again only to repeat the cycle. I decided to give lessons a try and found Zach Adkins Guitar & Music lessons and have not been disappointed. In just over five months I have learned quite a few songs. He takes the time to explain things and to break down a song so we learn it in pieces. He will also explain music theory when I have questions on how to know if I should play a basic chord, power chord, or a bar chord. Anyone looking for lessons, look no further then Zach Adkins. I highly recommend.

Review №66

Ive played guitar off an on for about 15 years, but am 99% self-taught and had pretty much reached a plateau. Ive taken a lesson or two with teachers before and have been underwhelmed. After only a couple of lessons Im having more fun with the guitar than Ive had in years. Zach has an energy that is infectious and motivating. He has a great teaching style and in the first lesson he was able to gauge what I could do and find things to stretch my skills and expand my knowledge of the instrument. Fantastic teach. Cant recommend the dude enough.

Review №67

Im a little nervous to write this review....Because I honestly think Zach is the best guitar instructor in the Omaha area and want to make sure this review does him justice. Having had lessons from different instructors over the course of a few years, I never could quite find the right fit, until I started taking lessons with Zach.Zach makes a conscious effort to be a non traditional guitar teacher; he doesnt want to make the instrument more difficult than it needs to be. Many instructors (including several Ive encountered) tend to make guitar seem needlessly difficult. Its almost like they thrive on the difficulty (theory, repairs, etc) to make sure their students keep coming back. Zach, on the other hand, is able to articulate and teach difficult concepts clearly and without unnecessary confusion. For example, I am very interested in music theory. In one lesson, Zach was able to teach me theoretical concepts that wouldve taken me months to learn and master without his expertise.Furthermore, I dont think theres any guitar teacher that will go out of their way for their students like Zach. Very recently, I told him I was interested in learning a little about guitar repairs (truss rod adjustment, bridge adjustments, string changes, etc.) During one lesson, Zach spent the time to show me how to do general maintenance, like string changes, so I wouldnt have to pay places like Guitar Center to perform regular maintenance. However, there was a hardware problem with my guitar. So, instead of directing to Guitar Center or somewhere similar and having me pay to get it fixed, Zach wanted to make sure that I was taken care of. He took time out of his busy schedule and brought my guitar to an expert guitar technician who was able to fix the problem. I acquired no additional expenses, and now my guitar has a custom set up and plays like a dream.If you are at all curious about learning guitar, you dont have to look any further. Zach is a top-tier teacher who will fully invest in helping develop your talent.

I have been taking guitar lessons with Adam for a couple of months, and I am so thankful that I get to learn from him. He is an amazing guitar player, has an endless supply of musical knowledge and is an all-around good guy. He is great at catering to the individual needs of each student and is extremely patient, even though he has been playing most of his life and could probably play any song just as good or better than the original artist. I have learned so much from him in the 2 months I’ve been learning to play. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned guitarist, adult or child, Adam and the guys at Adkins have got you covered; you won’t regret the choice to learn from these guys!

Had gotten as far as I could go on my own being self taught so I went to Zach Adkins for some lessons. Best money I have spent on music lessons! Learned more in 4 lessons than I have in a half dozen years! Zach is super easy to work with and makes everything very simple. I simply told him what I was hoping to get out of the lessons and that is where we began. Looking forward to having more as soon as I possibly can!

To get my chops a little tighter when someone recommended Adkins. And a young teacher named Geddy Lee and I was not disappointed. The one on one lessons and timing drills were awesome along with new fresh ideas for fills this guy is The real deal. I will be Back from time to time for sure. Thanks again Geddy. Rock on brother

Had a brief stint of guitar lessons when I was in high school but after that, the guitar stayed packed away for close to 20 years. Was in the basement, saw the guitar, started playing around and made the decision I wanted to get back into playing instead of sitting on the couch watching TV. I started searching for a guitar teacher that likes similar music to me. Jumped on the internet and saw Zach’s Ibanez Flying Fingers winning entry and was amazed by what I saw and couldn’t believe that he was in Omaha. I started watching his other videos posted on YouTube and knew I wanted to learn from this guy.I’m now close to two months into my lessons and don’t regret it one bit. I’m excited to go to the lesson every week because I learn something new that makes me better each time. Zach is very good at guitar and he undoubtedly has a passion for it as this was evident during my first conversation with him on the phone. I truly believe he wants me to develop into a better guitar player and get me to where I want to be. One of the things I appreciated most was him coming with me to the guitar store to help me pick out a new guitar. As we looked at all the guitars hanging on the walls, he explained to me why the differences in price, bridge style, pickup styles, etc. I picked out a new guitar that day knowing what I was getting.I’d recommend Zach to anyone, young or older. When you have somebody as talented as Zach teaching you, it feels like there is hope that one day you might be able to do the things he can on the guitar.

I started off not knowing anything about guitar, Zach has made me progress a lot then I first thought. I enjoy every lesson and learning knew things about guitar and music theory. He is very patient and encourages.

My son has been taking drum lessons with Geddy Johnson for a few months now. He is great and my son has never had a complaint. Hes very flexible and always works around our busy schedules.

I cannot say enough great things about Zach Adkins Guitar! I honesty thought that I would never be able to play the guitar but I took a chance on it anyway. I reached out to Zach to inquire about taking lessons and not only did he respond to me immediately, he made me feel welcome and more comfortable about taking this plunge. About a week later I had my first lesson with Adam Arispe. I walked in there thinking I would have my four lessons and probably have to walk away and find a new hobby. I mean, the odds were definitely against me, so I thought. Wow was I wrong! First, Adam asked ME what I wanted to do. I learned some chords in the first lesson and the by the second lesson, I was already learning how to play my first song. Almost a year later, I am learning how to play a solo. I’m living proof that anyone can learn how to play the guitar. If there is even just a small part of you that wants to learn how to play the guitar, do it! Zach Adkins and his team will take care of you and turn you into a shredder! Thank you, Adam!

I’ve known Zach for over 2 years now and I’ve known several artists in training people from all levels, from knowing nothing to the most experienced guitarist! The best of the BEST! Call him to be Bad Ass in the near Future!!!!

Zach is an extremely gifted, yet down to earth musician. Hes patient yet pushes and also helps tailor lessons to the specific needs/situations of the student. Glad I found Adkins Guitar!
