Guitar players mostly quote per set rather than per hour, with rates in Missouri starting from about $120 for a single instrumental set, typical bookings around $370 and singer-guitarists bringing their own PA reaching $1,150+. 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.

Carl Stuck
"Carl played for us at a graduation/send off party this month and he was amazing! Our guests are still talking about how he made the night one to remember. He came highly recommended to us 4 years ago and we booked him at that time for our oldest son’s grad party. We told him then that we would need him every other year for our next three kids. He definitely delivered once again with a broad range of music that appealed to all of our guests, young and old. Thanks, Carl. See you in two more years!"
