Mat K. says, "David was clear on the need to work on several areas if I wanted to get deeper into acoustic blues guitar: build repertoire, work on theory and apply it to the fret board, technique, and so forth. He pointed me to resources and talked through terms that confused me. He also let me set the agenda on what we worked on; he also made backing tracks for me to practice along with. He was flexible in terms of scheduling times and just an overall good fellow in that I'm an adult learner and need time to let new things fit into existing knowledge. (I hope to get back with him once my tennis elbow heals!)" Read more

  • 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.

  • 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.

Justin is a very fun and patient man when it comes to making the beginning stages of learning guitar interesting. Even though sometimes trying to learn to play guitar felt like it was impossible and frystrating, Justin always had different ways of helping me calm down and showing me some new technique that totally made things easier.
