re: Guitar lessons - should I tip?

I'm taking my first private guitar lesson today at $45/hour. I've never picked up a guitar before so we'll be starting from scratch - learning to play and sight reading.

Is it customary to tip after each lesson? If so, how much?

Okay Mr. Rockefeller, we get it.

And unless your instructor is some cute female who is also assisting you in playing your skin flute, I'd say they are already more than properly compensated for their efforts.
