I have 20 years of experience plus 30 years of gigging and an academic background (USC and GIT with honors). I have worked on many major festivals including a backing Grammy winner Diane Schurr. I play multiple instruments so that I can address issues of ensemble playing (playing in a band setting). I don't have a single approach to teaching. I find what works for each student and teach them according to their goals and learning style. I am extremely patient. I offer home based studio instruction in order to pass on a discount to my students. I offer a computer equiped studio that includes recording software as well as programs like Band ...

Welcome to Kye Harris Music Academy, where the joy of music meets the art of teaching. My name is Kye, and I am passionate about sharing the love of music with my students. My journey in music began at the age of four, when my grandmother introduced me to the world of classical piano. Since then, music has been a central part of my life. Growing up in the vibrant church communities throughout Chicago, I developed my skills on piano, bass, guitar, drums, and vocals. This foundation led me to form a pop-rock band with my brothers, a venture that culminated in a major record deal with Sony Epic Records. Over the years, I've had the privilege of

Diamanta M. says, "There isn't any teacher out there like Tony Pretzello. Tony completely turned my playing around over the course of the 6 years I've studied with him. Before Tony, I only knew rock progressions and was lacking a lot of technique. Tony introduced me to the world of jazz on guitar, which is something that can look so intimidating- yet Tony breaks it down and makes it simple. Tony's teaching methods and patience are like no other guitar teacher I've had, and that's the reason why I've stayed with him for 6 years. Tony is extremely passionate about music, entertaining, and fun to take lessons from. He has worked with some incredible musicians and it shows in his teaching. Tony has always worked with my schedule and does lessons with me in-person, and online. My musical vocabulary has completely expanded with his methods, learning music theory, jazz charts, arrangements, chords, harmony, dynamics. After studying with Tony, my musical understanding has blossomed from his holistic approach to teaching the guitar. I really recommend him to anyone wanting to improve their skills exponentially, because he'll take you there. If you want more details, reach out to me at [email protected] // 818-643-0513.

Are bass guitar lessons worth it?

Bass guitar lessons are worth it to master those frets faster so that you can get confident enough to play for others.

A bass guitar teacher understands how to help you:

  • Focus on rhythm to set a solid foundation for other instruments in a band
  • Put less emphasis on chords and more on single notes and scales
  • Master your key genres like jazz, rock, pop, and funk

What age is good to start bass guitar lessons?

You can start bass guitar lessons for kids from the ages of 6 to 10 years old or whenever they can hold the instrument with enough hand strength to press on the strings. Any age is good for adults to start bass guitar with the right assistance and regular practice.

How many bass guitar lessons do I need?

The number of bass guitar lessons you need varies a lot according to what you want to achieve and how hard you practice. You could expect to play a simple song after 2 to 6 months. However, mastering the guitar professionally typically takes 4 to 10 years.

How do I find the best bass guitar lessons near me?

To find the best bass guitar lessons for you, look at the list of teachers nearby on the Lessons website. You might also find guitar lessons at local music stores.

Before choosing a guitar teacher, remember to:

  • Compare prices from 3 different teachers and ask what their lessons cover.
  • Look at what people have said about them on Google and Lessons.
  • Request a list of other students they've taught to check their experience.
  • Ask other parents how their children feel about the teacher.
  • Ensure you have a written schedule and agreement before the first lesson.
  • Pay in small amounts at first to make sure the teacher is right for you before committing to a full month.

What questions do I ask when choosing a bass guitar teacher?

To ensure you choose the best guitar teacher, consider asking these questions:

  • What's your educational background in music?
  • How many years of experience do you have in teaching bass guitar?
  • Do you offer a complimentary initial lesson?
  • What are the typical ages of your students?
  • Which model of bass guitar is best for my practice?
  • Do you know where I can rent equipment?
  • Will you assign finger workout exercises as homework?
  • How frequently should I practice on my own?
  • Which textbooks do I need?
  • How many genres of guitar music can you teach?
  • Can you modify your teaching approach if I'm finding it hard to grasp?
  • What items should I bring to each lesson, and how long does it last?
  • Can I have a written copy of our schedule, contract, and payment details?
  • What is your policy if I have to cancel a lesson suddenly?
  • Can I incorporate my favorite songs into the learning process?

I started taking weekly guitar lessons from Tony in the 3rd grade at St. Cyril of Jerusalem, and continued until my freshman year of college. I’m now away at college but still meet with him over the school breaks from university for lessons/jam sessions. Tony has taught me a wide range of guitar skills; from rock songs for my middle school band, to advanced fingerstyle technique and improvisational soloing. While he ensures students learn the essentials such as scales and technique, he also keeps them engaged by teaching the type of music that students want to learn. Any style of guitar I have become interested in learning Tony has been able to teach. We’ve gone over blues, rock and roll, jazz, improvisational jazz soloing, fingerstyle, and classical. Tony will make students laugh and learn at the same time. He’s great at what he does and he loves doing it. If you want to get so good at guitar that your friends become envious then Tony is your guy. Feel free to contact me with any questions or clarifications at [email protected] or 818-263-0554.

Jason has a great disposition and connects quite well with my somewhat cynical teen! He also makes a smooth transition from the guitar lesson to the basketball skills training. I love that he makes sure to include conditioning in the basketball class and that my daughter gets to learn songs that she really likes. She looks forward to her classes every week. We will definitely be continuing with the lessons!
