Guitar / Bass Tuition ...

Pennyland Music offers a Guitar and Bass Guitar course called “Learning HOW to Play Guitar” with the emphasis on HOW. As beginners learn some simple basics of music, they start to understand what they are doing and why they are doing it rather than learning to play parrot-fashion. They start to learn and understand how to make up chord sequences to songs and how to make up guitar riffs or bass runs just like the professionals. For those who have already been playing for some time, it gives structure and understanding to help them advance. 

How much does it cost?  Lessons last for an hour and cost £25 each.

How long will it take to learn?  That one’s a bit more difficult. It depends how determined you are, how hard you try and how good you really want to be.

Initially, students have one lesson at the normal rate to see if they like the teaching style and content. If so,  they are given a fortnightly lesson slot (this gives better value than weekly lessons). As they develop, they have an option to move to weekly lessons, but most opt to stay with fortnightly lessons as they’re given enough to practice for two weeks. But this is entirely up to the student. Lessons are given at Pennyland Music Studio, Pennyland, Milton Keynes and are paid for on the day. No advance payments. No minimum commitment.

As part of the course (and included in the price), students are given sections of a Guitar Learning Manual plus a CD packed with a wealth of information and exercises to help them progress. Much of the teaching involves use of a PC and a powerful but simple-to-use audio editing program plus many audio files to help accelerate their progress. For those who do not use a pc, the teaching is adapted accordingly.

Students are expected to bring their own guitar to their lessons, but if on occasion they cannot, they can use one of the guitars here in the Studio. There is no need to bring an amplifier - there are several in the studio.
