WHAT DO OUR Customers say?
'Your stuff is awesome. I’m a professional bassist and teacher and I’m finally learning tapping after playing bass for 35 years. Your videos are paced perfectly. It’s the best part of the pandemic for me. Great job.'
Steve Hilbert
'I just wanted to say though how outstanding and helpful your series of Plectrum courses are - I don't know of any other bass teaching site which covers playing with a plectrum to the extent you do - it really is invaluable teaching.'
Celia Bradley
'Since I joined the online courses I really really enjoyed it every time. For me this is the best bass education site on the net.'
Björn Zimmer
'I have purchased two books from your company (Ultimate Slap Bass and a Mark King book). I just wanted to say that your books are well thought out and a lot of fun to play.'
Mike Pylyp
'I just wanted to share how happy I am with the courses. I have bought your Mark King book in the past and found it excellent and though that my skill is not quite there yet, but your courses will certainly assist me in getting to where I need to be with my playing!'
Adam Barber
'I never got round to thanking you for putting together a tutorial on "If I Like it I Do It" by Jamiroquai. Brilliantly explained and taught and I have learnt so much already by doing this course and others on your site. Fantastic work keep it going and don’t stop.'
Philip Gatsky
'I just wanted to drop a quick note to tell you how much I am enjoying your slap bass courses. Currently working through the intermediate section and I especially enjoy the no-nonsense, straightforward teaching style. Each exercise builds on the one previously and provides useful ideas that I'm already incorporating into my own playing.'
Brett Blakeway
'Today I received the two books I ordered, and I must say that I did not expect books with such a good appearance. The exercises are many, very progressive and are very well explained. No doubt the best bass methods I've ever bought... I have homework for years.'
Luis Javier Naranjo
'Just wanted to let you know that I started subscribing to your online courses and I think they are great! I really like the way you break songs as well as technique down. I've signed up for some other instruction bass courses in the past and I think your way of teaching technique is more focused and I think that the pricing is great as well. When breaking down songs you have a great way of explaining the "how" it works in terms of music theory and it never seems overwhelming or confusing either and helps me understand why certain parts of songs sound well and gives insight into the approach of bassline writing. Thank you, and keep up the excellent work.'
Craig Williams
'I studied with Stuart before getting into a conservatoire and was successful at obtaining a place at Guildhall School of Music and Drama all because of Stuart’s lessons. I've been a professional musician for five years; touring, West End shows and cruise ships. All of the fundamentals I learned from Stuart. From sight reading, playing changes, to working on your sound and time. In my opinion one of the best bass teachers in the country and that’s after studying at two leading conservatoires.'
