Tandro Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Hi, Just inquiring as to any teachers in and around West London, or anybody recommended in that area? Will have to put up with (what I consider) a beginner. Looking for proper guidance and a real grounding in the basics of bass playing and music and taking it from there upwards. Thanks all...

Chiswick could be good, pretty much Picadilly line straight from Uxbridge. tarcher, if I can make my way to your teacher could be an option too, let me know. @Platypus - I'll look up stickman too, thanks!

tarcher Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Theres a couple of teachers based in Acton I believe which would be of more convenience to you. Carpenders Park looks really awkward to get to from Cowley/Uxbridge. You could get 2 buses takes about an hour Take the met line to harrow and then bus from harrow to cp Then its about a ten minute walk from the station to his house There are a couple of other routes as well(theiPhone does have its uses) The journeys are not too bad reallybut bloody hell cars do make life so much easier.

You talking 'bout them there newfangled doohickies with the black circular doodads on 'em....if so, then yeah, they would make life easier But I might end up wanting to spend any spare cash on a bass...no no no, I won't do that, cause I am putting my pennies into lessons!

Tandro Posted April 9, 2013 Author Share Posted April 9, 2013 Now realised that its 2 years to the day since starting this post. I too went to Tom Kenrick shortly after that, and still do! His patience (especially with me, heh) and ability to help one develop has helped me so much. I can't recommend him enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
