​Welcome to the coolest
guitar school in London
We are officially amazing!
The Guitar Social holds the Guinness World RecordTM for The World's Longest Guitar lesson.

Thomas Binns, founder of The Guitar Social taught over 250 people over 24 hours (and six minutes) in an art Gallery in Canning Town. He raised over £30, 000 pound which will be spent on delivering free of charge tuition to vulnerable adults across 2019 and 2020 as well as gifting 200 guitars to people with physical disabilities, visual impairments and those suffering with ill mental health.

It is really important to make music accessible to all. This ground breaking World record guitar lesson attempt is a great initiative, and is a small stepping stone on the way to enabling visually impaired people to learning an instrument. Who knows there may be another Eric Clapton or Jimi Hendrix in the bunch.

The Guitar Social's world record breaking attempt is all about spreading the joy of Music to communities that are forgotten in the arts world. Good luck, keep doing the good work.

More than a place to learn guitar
Meet new people, learn new skills
We teach guitar, but we place social interaction at the heart of the learning process. It's a music school, but much more than that.
Musical adventures
We run a heavy rota of social events to get you linked musically. Many of our events put you centre stage.
