Why I Recommend Loog Guitars for Young Students
By Henry Bahrou, Director – Grosse Pointe Music Academy
What began as a Kickstarter® concept has evolved into a truly impressive product line: the Loog guitar. Originally praised for its simplicity—reducing the guitar to just three strings—Loog guitars have become a game-changer for early music education. I recently purchased a few of the newest Loog models, and I’m happy to say they’ve significantly improved in quality and design. I now fully recommend them for young beginners.
The core concept remains brilliant: by limiting the guitar to three strings, beginners can focus more easily, develop proper technique, and avoid many of the early frustrations that come with six-string guitars. The streamlined design makes musical patterns and finger positions easier to see, even for experienced players exploring new ideas.
One of the standout features is the compact size—perfect for students as young as four years old. These guitars aren’t just scaled-down versions of full-size instruments; they’re thoughtfully crafted tools that promote successful learning and make the transition to standard guitars smooth and natural.
At Grosse Pointe Music Academy, we proudly stock Loog guitars and offer lessons specifically tailored for three-string beginners. Whether you’re looking for a child’s first guitar or a creative learning tool, the Loog is a fantastic option.
