Bass Program

This is the whole path on one instrument. You start with one clean note in time and finish holding down the low end of a band.

The route runs through timing, roots and fifths, walking lines, muting and groove, always inside real songs rather than exercises.

Nothing is rushed. Each tier stays open once you reach it, so you can go back whenever something needs shoring up.

How the learning works

Bass is taught by ear first and notation later. You learn to feel where the kick drum sits before you learn to name the interval.

You work at your own pace. Every lesson stays available, so a busy week costs you nothing.

Nobody is left behind if they miss a week. There is no live schedule and no class to catch up with.

Add one to one lessons

Program members can also book one to one lessons for attention on their own playing, from £18 for thirty minutes online. Coaching students get access to the matching program included, so the two fit together either way round.

What students on this program say

I joined to help out at church and stayed because the timing lessons made me a better musician generally.

The walking lines tier took me from playing roots to actually saying something.

Questions

What happens if I cancel my membership?
Your access runs to the end of the month you have paid for, and then stops. Nothing is deleted, so if you come back later you pick up at the tier you had reached.
Yes. Every tier is open from the day you join, so you can look ahead or drop back to an earlier lesson whenever you want. Most students follow the order, but nothing is locked.
Twenty minutes on four or five days does more than two long sessions at the weekend. If a week gets away from you, nothing is lost.
It is built for one. Beginners 1 assumes you have never played a note, and takes the first steps slowly enough that your hands can keep up.
Yes, you need something to practise on between lessons. It does not need to be expensive, and we are happy to suggest what to look for before you buy.
Beginners 1 costs nothing and always will. Work through it first, then decide whether the rest of the ladder is for you.
