Guitars for
Rent or Purchase (for our students only)
Miller Guitar Academy is dedicated first to providing the best music
education to our students. That's why we only provide this service
for students that are enrolled at Miller Guitar Academy. With that
in mind we want our students to have the most appropriate instrument
at each stage of learning. We therefore make available a range of
guitars that we have found best serve our students needs.
The
"right" size
It is extremely important that the student has the right size of
guitar, therefore we offer a variety of sizes for rent or purchase. A
guitar that is too large makes playing an effort just to hold the guitar
properly. A guitar that is too small can be awkward as well. For children
and smaller adults a full size guitar may not be appropriate. The
proportion is also very important. Children's guitars come in many sizes:
1/4,1/2, 3/4 and 7/8. Smaller adults may need a 7/8 or a short scale
guitar. We make all these guitars available to our students at a
reasonable cost.
HOME
Guitar Rentals
A student may rent any size guitar
by the semester at Miller Guitar Academy. Often a beginning student may
not want to invest in purchasing a guitar until they are sure they can go
on with their lessons. In that case renting is a good alternative. All of
our guitar rentals are of good quality and well maintained. We will do any
work that a rental might need free of charge including string breakage. We
also provide free loaners if need be. We guarantee you will have a guitar
during the rental period. Rental fees range from $30 to $60 per semester
depending on the size and model.

--GUITARS
FROM MILLER GUITAR ACADEMY--
1. As teachers we want our students to have the best sounding
and playing guitars available at a good
price.
Music stores do not work with our students on an ongoing basis.
2. We choose guitars in each price range from a variety of sources
as where music retailers must carry one line of quality guitars
that can vary drastically in quality from one model to the next.
3. Our guitars are picked for their quality over brand name.
Retailers carry guitars primarily for brand recognition and
marketability. Quality may come second.
Often brand name guitars look better than they play or sound.
4. In our experience, new students sometimes come
in with a new guitar from a store and find that they paid twice
as much for a guitar that is half as good after playing one of ours.
5. We can give our students greater trade in value
on our guitars than a retailer when it is time to move up in size
or quality

Lucida (Made
in Spain)
These are the best and most affordable student model
guitars we have seen on the market. These Spanish made guitars have solid
tops and quality construction. The volume and tone they produce are beyond
what one would expect for guitars
priced under $600.
