My main goal as a teacher is to balance what you need to know with what you want to know so that way you have fun learning your favorite songs while also learning the essential skills to become a better guitar player. I have been playing guitar for over 11 years and have been teaching for the last 4 years at Rock Inc. School of Music in Citrus Heights. I have been in bands and performed all around the Sacramento area. I teach from anywhere from beginning to advanced levels. I am proficient in playing Rock, Blues, Metal, Funk, Jazz and Country....

Noevery great guitar player is a great teacher. I started teaching because I love leading people to their own musical truth....everybody has one : a combination of rhythm theory and pure love . Let's find yours! I'm a low-volume teacher and then I get a lot of inquiries I don't take every student on. It's important to me to understand what my students goals are. Nothing is better than seeing someone work hard to achieve challenges in music.

  • Online lessons cost $35 to $55 per hour for remote learning at home.
  • Most monthly subscriptions for ongoing lessons range from $170 to $315.

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?

Reviews for Sacramento bass guitar instructors

Recent success stories from people in the Sacramento area.
Robert K.
Nearly everything (aside from having an amazing ear for recognizing that “one wrong note,” wrongly played in a musical score - which is his job), Harley is a find. He is easy, fun, philosophic, and passionate about finding a way for musical talent to be brought out into more light He gets that many students sell themselves short and has a way to have uncertainty or timidness turn into a confident smile. Acceptance of the student, right where he (or she) is, begets more acceptance, more playing confidence, and less self-consciousness. He believes in his students, however they are put together. He is so good at bringing students together, to believe in themselves, that I’ve long felt he should franchise his knack for teaching. Harley has been my instructor for nearly 18 years. I stick with him because I’m getting better. I stick with him because he has heart, because he celebrates life and music, because he is genuinely like a father, a brother, a teacher, a preacher, historian, philosopher, and most of all - a friend.

As an adult who had never played a musical instrument in my life, I was pretty nervous walking in to my first lesson. Eddie has a kind and easy way about him, and he talked me through my anxieties. After my first lesson, I felt at ease and confident that he would help me reach my goals. I've now been working with him for over 2 months and I've already made so much progress with his guidance. He's very patient with me, and is very skilled in his ways of helping me through obstacles. Not only is he very knowledgeable, his passion for music and teaching is palpable. I have found that lessons with him are fun and catered to my own musical preferences and needs. I would definitely recommend Eddie to anyone hoping to learn a musical instrument.

I am a beginner level. I am very happy to get a teacher like Mr.Price. He is very nice in explaining the stuff and makes the subject very interesting and he also makes the subject very easy to learn. Only thing has a student we need to do is just follow what he teaches , for sure that will make us good pro Guitarist.
