    Aah, the bottom end! Bass is the place! I show you how to lay it down!

    I've been teaching Bass Guitar for 30+ years and my students have gone on to play in bands and work with major artists. Within the first few lessons, you'll be able to know you way around the instrument and as time goes on you'll be able to play what you hear and want to play. I specialize in Pop, Rock & R&B and I love working with students of all ages and experience levels and I can't wait to meet you!
