Red Pick Music - Guitar Lessons

On Greene Street in Journal Square, storefront rehearsal spaces share the block with older brick walk-ups—the kind of mixed block that keeps Jersey City’s music lessons tucked between everyday stops. The door at 1 Greene St lies just above street level, inside a quiet apartment landing.

Adults aren’t the only ones reaching for a guitar at Red Pick Music. They teach six-to-nineteen-year-olds twice a week, keeping weekday evenings filled with scales. Classes move at the student’s pace, avoiding any rigid yearly syllabus.

Up the two flights of stairs is the studio itself. No lobby, no lounge—just the guitars, a quiet room, and the instructor’s attention on chords and timing. Scheduling is handled one-on-one, either online or by phone.

Before the next train pulls out of Journal Square, zoom into the map for turn-by-turn directions then dial (857) 389-2257 to lock in a slot. That’s what locals do after coffee on a Saturday morning.
