Welcome to 6 Strings Guitar School
Hi, I'm Cesar de Rurange — passionate guitarist, instructor, and dad of three, based on Sydney's Northern Beaches. My studio in Mona Vale is a friendly, creative space where players of all ages and skill levels are welcome, from absolute beginners picking up a guitar for the first time to experienced musicians wanting to refine their craft.
I tailor every lesson to your goals and musical taste, covering acoustic, electric, bass, and ukulele across a range of styles — from rock and blues to classical, pop, and fingerstyle. When I'm not teaching, you'll find me performing at events and venues around Sydney with my acoustic duo and bands.
