"What sounds better than a guitar?
Two guitars. "
"Playing the guitar is very easy," say those who can.
So that you do that once I can also say about you, I have 4 learning levels that develops you in the process at best supported.
As a beginner you start with LEVEL 1 and continue until you know and can enough for your needs.
If you already play the guitar, you can choose a level that suits you and move on from there.

It has been shown time and again that even 1 lesson can open new doors and broaden horizons.What counts here is less the duration and frequency than the shared intensity and the favour of the moment.
