For The Teachers

A Partnership in Pedagogy: For Classical Guitar Instructors

As an educator, you know that the first six months are the most critical in a guitarist’s life. When the guitar is the obstacle, your job as a teacher becomes twice as hard.
Proportion Guitars was founded to be your ally in the classroom. We share your "Student-First" Philosophy. We understand that your primary goal is to foster a love for music and a healthy physical technique. We aren't here to move high-margin inventory; we are here to ensure that when you say "keep your thumb behind the neck," it is actually physically possible for your student to do so.

Why Partner with Proportion?

• Vetted Ergonomics: Every fractional guitar we distribute is crafted with a classical neck profile and nut width to ensure the "proportions" are correct so you don't have to fight against poor instrument design.
• The "Feedback Loop" Sound: We prioritize instruments with rich timbre and dynamic range. We believe a student’s guitar should be their first teacher—rewarding good technique and highlighting errors.
• Affordability as Accessibility: By keeping our overhead low and our mission focused, we provide fractional scale classical guitars that are accessible to all families without sacrificing the quality required for serious study.
• Playability: We check for level frets, neck relief, and string action before any guitar leaves our shop.
