This course is for both guitar and bass players who are totally, or relatively, new to the guitar. But it is also suitable for more experienced players who are stuck in a rut and need a bump-start. This is a small class size course focusing on forming/changing chords with a groove as well as providing a cool accompanying bass line. If time allows, and the group is up for it, then we’ll cover a lot more. Regardless, the course will be full of exercises and some classic songs.
The over-arching aims are to:
We’ll literally start at the beginning with the basics:

The course generally has a smaller class size compared to our others in order to allow more one-on-one time and we take things at whatever pace suits the group.
The course will set you off on the right path but the main work is done at home. We provide a comprehensive set of lesson materials to help this process. Beginners gets you ready for Strugglers which is our entry-level course for players who have a few years under their musical belt.
It’s suitable for all beginner levels of acoustic, electric guitar and bass players e.g.
But also for people who have played for years but don’t really feel that you’ve got a map or your engine is stuttering or you’re just stuck in a musical rut – you need an MOT or bump start. You might be at the low intermediate level (this is where our Strugglers course comes into its own — check it out)
Our price for players is all-inclusive:
This Day-Only course is a are teaching/playing guitar/bass-fest but it will be paced to suit the group so that it’s as much about having fun and enjoying a sociable time with fellow hobby players.
Playing together as a group is the best, and most enjoyable, way of learning and experiencing music. The courses have limited numbers to ensure the correct tutor-to-group ratio – book early to avoid disappointment.
