How much does it cost to hire Guitarists in Tucson?

$Low price
from$120USD
$$Average price
from$390USD
$$$High price
from$1,150USD

Guitar players mostly quote per set rather than per hour, with rates in Tucson starting from about $120 for a single instrumental set, typical bookings around $390 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.

Reviews of Guitarists available in Tucson

5/5 from 1,184 reviews
Photo of Paul Wells Band Paul Wells Band "Highly professional singer/guitarist; fun & entertaining. Paul Wells provided excellent entertainment at multiple events for my healthcare organization from 2010 through 2020. Always on time, very organized, & willing to "go with the flow" when our systems may not have been so accommodating. Example: for one outdoor event, we had difficulty running a cable for his equipment in the location we had placed him. Paul went out of his way to help get everything set up & started his performance on time. Wonderful voice, excellent guitar skills, & a great sense of humor when interacting with his audience. An extensive song list ensures something for everyone. People love him! Although I am now retired, I continue to seek Paul out when looking for outstanding entertainment." Based in Tempe, Arizona (100 miles from Tucson) Suzanne Treece - Healthcare Organization Photo of Nícolàs “El Rom” Nícolàs “El Rom” "Absolutely fantastic. Right up there with performances we saw in Spain." Based in Scottsdale, Arizona (105 miles from Tucson) 4th October 2026 Claudia D - Sun City Anthem at Merrill Ranch Photo of Gal Drimmer Gal Drimmer "We hired Gal Drimmer to play background guitar instrumentals at The Phoenician resort. The music was so perfect for our event! Everyone loved Gal's virtuosity on the guitar. His happy upbeat music was at a perfect volume that we could hear, enjoy and converse. Gal was there to set up early and was supper nice to everyone. We will be happy to hire Gal again next time we are in Arizona!" Based in Scottsdale, Arizona (105 miles from Tucson) 19th September 2026 Clay H. - Corporate Event for Axxess Technology Solutions Photo of Jake Williams Jake Williams "Jake was such a great addition to our teens’ dinner party. Our guests loved his music, little kids danced under the tree lights while the adults enjoyed dinner and drinks, and people kept complimenting how fun and talented he was throughout the night. He played for three hours with breaks of course but impressive! He also played such a great variety of songs, and at one point my husband looked over and said, “Is he playing Enrique Iglesias?” — and it turned out to be one of our proposal songs, which made the night feel extra special and personal, even if he didn’t know that was one of our songs. Jake arrived early to set up, communicated clearly before and the day of the event, and was always easy to reach. He created such a warm, joyful atmosphere and truly made the evening memorable. Highly recommend him for any gathering! I hope to see him again when my friends book him in the future and of course he’ll be in my list of hire as well. Thank you Jake for a wonderful evening!!!" Based in Phoenix, Arizona (108 miles from Tucson) 25th May 2026 Lily M. - Birthday Party Photo of Paul James Music Paul James Music "Paul captivated everyone at our company party with his music and enthusiasm. They kept complimenting on how much they enjoyed his performance. I'll be having him play again at our next event!" Based in Phoenix, Arizona (108 miles from Tucson) Joan Abbey - Corporate Party Photo of Classic Country & Oldies Rock One Man Band Classic Country & Oldies Rock One Man Band "Fantastic entertainment! Dave was a lot of fun, a great singer and sounded like a whole band was behind him! Amazing what he can do with his keyboard not to mention his guitar! I would highly recommend him for any event you might have" Based in Peoria, Arizona (121 miles from Tucson) Roberta M. - Retirement Party

Frequently asked questions

The average price for guitarists on Gig Heaven is $390, with rates ranging from $120 to $1,150+. Cost depends on performance duration, the guitarist's experience and whether the booking is for background music or a full live set. Guitarists on the platform cover a wide range of styles including classical, jazz, blues, rock, flamenco and pop.

The guitarists for hire cover a huge range of styles including classical, jazz, blues, flamenco, rock, pop, folk, fingerstyle and acoustic covers. Many guitarists are versatile performers who can switch between styles during an event to suit different moments.

Popular occasions for hiring guitarists include wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, corporate dinners, private parties, restaurant entertainment and ambient background music. A solo guitarist provides versatile, elegant live music that suits both intimate and larger settings.

Most guitarists are happy to learn specific songs for key moments such as a ceremony entrance or first dance. Many have extensive repertoires covering popular songs, classical pieces and jazz standards. It is advisable to discuss song requests with the guitarist well in advance.

Many guitarists on Gig Heaven play both electric and acoustic guitar and can choose the instrument that best suits the event. Acoustic guitar provides a warm, intimate sound for ceremonies and dining, while electric guitar is better for rock, blues and higher-energy performances.

For small, quiet settings, many guitarists can perform acoustically. For larger venues, outdoor events or noisier environments, a small amplifier or PA system is usually needed. Most guitarists bring their own amplification. For the best experience, discuss the venue size with the performer.

One player can usually cover the whole day, moving from processional and signing music during the ceremony to background playing over drinks and dinner. Timings are agreed in advance, since the ceremony music has fixed cues while the reception is more flexible. Where the ceremony and the reception are in different spaces, allow time to move and set up between them.

Most bookings run to two or three hours of playing time, split into sets with breaks, though the total time on site is longer once setup and soundcheck are added. Shorter ceremony-only bookings of around 40 minutes are common and are priced differently. Ask for playing time rather than hours on site, as the two are not the same.

Outdoor playing is common for ceremonies and garden receptions, and most players are happy to do it given shade and a level surface. Direct sun and damp both affect a wooden instrument, so a covered area is worth arranging even in settled weather. Wind carries sound away quickly, so amplification is usually needed outdoors even for a small number of guests.

Booking as early as possible increases the chance of securing your supplier's availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many suppliers also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged bookings for clients with just a few hours' notice.

Contact the supplier you are interested in booking by clicking "Contact Now" on their listing. Discuss your requirements using our messaging system or join a video meeting (like a Zoom-call) to speak face-to-face. Once you are ready to confirm your booking, simply ask the supplier to send you a contract, which you can agree to online, or request amendments. Once you agree to the contract you will be asked to pay a 10% booking fee to confirm the booking, with the balance payable directly to the supplier by the due date you've agreed on.
