Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

What if I don't like my first bass lesson?

We're confident you'll love your lesson, but if you're not 100% satisfied, our First Lesson Guarantee has you covered. We'll find you another tutor for free, ensuring you find the perfect match for your learning style.

Do I need to own a bass guitar before my first lesson?

Yes, you will need your own bass guitar to practice between lessons. If you don't have one yet, many tutors are happy to offer advice on choosing a great beginner instrument during your first session.

How much do online bass guitar lessons cost?

The price of lessons varies depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can browse tutor profiles to see their individual rates, with prices clearly listed to help you find a great teacher within your budget.

Are your tutors suitable for absolute beginners?

Absolutely! Many of our tutors specialise in teaching beginners. They are experts at building a strong foundation, teaching everything from how to hold the bass correctly to playing your first simple grooves.Our tutors can adapt teaching to your skill level.

Do I need to learn music theory to play bass?

While not strictly necessary to start, learning some music theory will greatly accelerate your progress and understanding of music. Your tutor can integrate theory into your lessons in a practical, easy-to-understand way that directly applies to the bass.

What do I need for an online bass lesson?

You'll need your bass guitar, an amplifier (recommended for the best sound), a stable internet connection, and a device with a webcam and microphone, such as a laptop, tablet, or smartphone.

How do I find the right bass tutor for me?

You can use our search filters to find tutors based on their experience, price, and availability. Watch their intro videos and read reviews from other students to get a feel for their teaching style before you book.

How long is a typical online bass lesson?

Most lessons are either 30, 60, or 90 minutes long. We generally recommend 60-minute lessons for a good balance of learning new material and having time to practice it with your tutor.

How often should I have bass lessons?

Most students find that one lesson per week is ideal. This provides enough time to practice the material from the previous lesson while maintaining steady momentum. However, you can arrange a schedule that works best for you with your tutor.

Can adults learn to play bass guitar?

Of course! It's never too late to learn a new skill. Many of our students are adults picking up an instrument for the first time. Our tutors are experienced in tailoring lessons for adult learners.

Can I learn a specific style, like funk, rock, or jazz bass?

Yes! Many of our tutors are versatile musicians who specialise in various genres. You can often see their areas of expertise listed on their profiles. Be sure to mention your musical interests when you contact a tutor.
