There's nothing quite like the feel of a great bass-line, but there is so much more to being a bass-player than just holding down the bass-line. In the right hands, bass guitar can be a warm and melodic instrument in its own right. 

If you are interested in learning to play bass guitar, or taking your bass skills to another level, Take5 Music can offer lessons in bass guitar and fretless bass from absolute beginners to advanced players looking to improve their technique or hone their performance skills.  

In your lessons, you will play the music you love and learn by playing together with your teacher. You'll learn the basis of keeping time, chords and scales and will progress naturally through reading chord, tab and musical notation as you play songs. Lessons can cover different styles of music depending on your interest, but will also explore other styles and techniques to make sure you become a rounded musician.

Theory is an integral part of learning music and becoming a musician, but Pino teaches theory by integrating it with playing your bass. You'll practice your scales by playing bass-lines in songs. Key concepts will be gradually introduced as you learn to keep it interesting and relevant to you.

If you are already experienced on bass, we will assess your skills and work on strengthening any gaps in your technique and theory. You'll be encouraged and challenged to sharpen your technique, broaden your skills and notation reading, but also to develop your musicianship and creativity as a bass-player. We can also help you to develop your performance and songwriting skills.
