It's all about the bass!
The bass guitar is the foundational instrument in practically every genre of music from rock and pop to hip hop and dance music. Explore the ins and outs (and highs and lows) of the bass guitar while learning how to play your favorite songs!
Beginning Students will…
- fundamental mechanics of playing the bass
- how to read music notation and or bass tablature
- how to navigate the fretboard
- major, minor, and pentatonic scales
- bass lines from popular songs
Once you have a strong foundational knowledge and your skills progress on the bass, you and your instructor will move on to more intermediate level material such as creating walking bass lines and more complex songs and arrangements.
When To Start Bass Lessons
Bass students typically start at age 8 and up. It’s never too late to learn! If you’re well into adulthood now is the perfect time to pick up that bass, take some lessons, and start jamming.

"Don't be deceived by its small size, they have what you need in music, instruments, mics, service, strings, lessons, etc. I drove by this place so many times in the past 3 years, and wish I had taken the time to visit earlier instead of driving to Newton or getting things online."
- MaryAnne T. (Student)
