Mornats Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Hi all, I've decided to treat myself to some bass lessons for my birthday in September so I'm looking for a good bass tutor in the Bristol area. Any recommendations? I'm looking for a dedicated bass tutor rather than a guitar tutor who also does bass. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mornats Posted August 20, 2012 Author Share Posted August 20, 2012 I've found a couple online so far - any of you guys had any experience with these?

SpaceChick Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Maybe a bit far, but I REALLY recommend the bridge toll to have lessons with Jon. He is amazing. I travel the same distance as you would need to (albeit from the other direction without the £6 toll) but I think its well worth it.

Mornats Posted August 21, 2012 Author Share Posted August 21, 2012 Thanks SpaceChick, he certainly comes recommended! I was thinking of taking lessons every 2-3 weeks to give me enough time to try stuff out in practice in between so I don't think the traveling would be too much of an issue really.

Stu-khag Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 never had lessons from him but seen him play quite a lot over the years (and he really can play!) and is a nice guy. Someone told me he moved to bristol recently. http://www.matthewdowner.com/teaching/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mornats Posted August 25, 2012 Author Share Posted August 25, 2012 Cheers, I'll drop him a note and will see where he's based now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mornats Posted September 3, 2012 Author Share Posted September 3, 2012 He is indeed based in Bristol and I've got a lesson booked with him on Friday I checked our some of his videos and he is a very good player. I would have gone for Jon over in Cardiff but getting over there in good time for a lesson at any decent time of day would be very hard.
