Folk strings in Charlottesville

Mandolin, banjo and ukulele lessons

Three small instruments with a big sound — and all three hang on the studio wall.

Look up from the guitars at the studio and you'll find a mandolin, a ukulele and a banjo on the wall. Bill teaches all three.

Ukulele

Small, friendly and quick to reward you: a great first instrument for children, and a happy surprise for adults.

Mandolin and banjo

The sound of folk music. If you already play guitar, either one is a natural next step; if you don't, they're a fine place to start.
