Learn to Play Bass Guitar

Learn to Play Weekend '19, Saturday 23rd March & Sunday 24th March 2019


A bass guitarist can completely transform how a band sounds. And, as bands such as Royal Blood are proving, there's no need for the bass to be in the background.

 

How to take part:

Suitable for all ages, join guitar teachers Mete and Mags for a 25 minute one-to-one lesson.

Lessons run throughout the day on 23rd March and 24th March 2019; arrive at the Yamaha Music Store as early as possible to book yours.
