Guitar players mostly quote per set rather than per hour, with rates in Cambridge starting from about £100 for a single instrumental set, typical bookings around £250 and singer-guitarists bringing their own PA reaching £850+. Longer performances, weekend and peak-season dates, and sets that include vocals all push quotes up. When comparing quotes, check what each includes: amplification, travel and time to learn requested songs are sometimes itemised separately. Booking ceremony and reception music with the same performer often costs less than hiring two separate acts. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

Chris Flegg
"Chris is not only a highly accomplished musician, with fabulous guitar skills, he has a wonderful voice, and a great sense of fun.
So happy to have him perform
In our home, where he played a sang for 2 hours from an extensive list of songs old and new.
We also enjoyed some light hearted banter with Chris during the evening. It was sad when it all had to end.
No hesitation in recommending Chris for a personal or lively event."
