Bass Guitar Tuition By Reuben
Multi-instrumentalist with over 20 years of live performance experience spanning all genres. I’ve played in various musical formats: from solo folk singer songwriter to a 10-piece Latin jazz big band!
I completed my BA(Hons) Degree in Music Practice in 2011 at the University of Central Lancashire and went on to become a full-time performing musician, in bands and as a session player.
I teach electric bass, double bass, song writing & composition and music theory.
I have a strong theoretical understanding of harmony, particularly
jazz harmony.Learn with me:
On electric bass we’ll cover the Trinity rock and pop syllabus, you’ll learn real music writtenby real bands!
I’ll teach you how to read tablature and real music notation so that you can gain the skillsneeded to become a versatile, professional player.
Unlock the fingerboard with useful exercises.
Learn how music works and why. I am a massive geek for this, so if I don’t know the answer for your question, I will find out!!!!
On double bass, we’ll go over the fundamentals of how to navigate the instrument. This isreally important if you’re a newbie, or an experienced electric bassist making the switch to double bass (most of my students are in this category.)
I write my own course material for jazz lessons; each module consists of 12 hours’ worth of well thought out concepts I’ve picked up along the way on my musical journey.
