Hi, I’m Jason Wilford
I’ve been helping students learn guitar in Mississauga for over 15 years — and over that time, I’ve seen exactly what works — and what holds people back — when it comes to making real progress.
A lot of people come to me feeling stuck, unsure what to practice, or frustrated that they’re not improving.
Most students I work with don’t need more information — they need a clear plan and the right guidance.
Lessons Built Around You
Not everyone has the same goals — and that’s exactly how I approach teaching.
Some students want to:
•learn a few songs for fun
•play with friends
•write their own music
•or take their playing to a higher level
Whatever it is for you, we’ll build a clear plan so you always know what to work on — and actually enjoy the process along the way.
A Professional, Comfortable Studio
Pro Guitar Studio is located near the Mississauga/Oakville border, just off Dundas.
The studio is fully equipped with everything you need — amps, guitars, recording gear, lesson materials, and a comfortable space to learn in. Whether you’re coming on your own or with someone tagging along, the goal is to make it feel easy and relaxed from the moment you walk in.
More Than Just Playing — Teaching That Works
There’s a big difference between someone who can play guitar well and someone who can actually teach it.
Running Pro Guitar Studio is my full-time focus, and over the years I’ve spent a lot of time not just improving my playing, but learning how to teach in a way that actually works.
My background includes playing and writing music in bands, recording in professional studios, releasing albums, touring, and studying music — but what matters most is helping you avoid the common mistakes and get results faster.
Let’s Talk About Your Goals
The most important thing is understanding what you want to achieve, and putting together a plan to get you there.

So that you want to practice and improve your guitar playing as often as possible. It’s a lot easier to become motivated to practice the guitar if you are accountable to someone else, and given opportunities to play with others.
✅ Massive Results
Trying to learn by yourself can be painful.
A great teacher can get you pointed in the proper direction right from the start — especially if they have a good roster of students who can do what you want to do.
These 5 very important things can be found RIGHT HERE!
Many players who choose to try to learn the guitar by themselves develop a whole range of problems in their playing.
Some students who had previously taken lessons for years have come to me with similar issues — ones that could have been avoided from the start if they were pointed in the right direction early on.
If you’re just starting to play the guitar, you’ve done the right thing by seeking out the best guitar lessons in Mississauga right from the start.
At Pro Guitar Studio you can be assured that you’re going to learn how to play the guitar properly and avoid bad habits, while making it fun and enjoyable for you at the same time.
If you’ve already been playing for a while, you can learn how to fix those bad habits, and at the same time enhance your skill on the instrument that you love.
Let’s get you on the right path.
What my students have to say...
