I will be returning to NYC January time and I'm looking or an instructor or the bass. I live in Manhattan so I would prefer if lessons could be there too. I started at the beg. of Nov and have been working on the basics of the bass and theory and would want to continue. If anone knows of anyone let me know. Thanks. |

BTW, I'm the "cover guy" on the book.

Jazz | +1 Nino is a good guy as well as a hell of a bassist (and bass builder too!). |

Best,
Everett Boyd www.sourkrautmusic.com | The AFM just started goprolessons.com and it is so new that there are not many up there as of yet but I bring this up since one of the initial teachers on the site is Patrick Pfeiffer.

I live in Brooklyn, but I'll come to you. |

| | | | Lessons If any of those guys recommended don't work out, I'm available. I live in NJ, but I'm commuting to the city pretty much every day of the week and can do lessons in the city.
I have experience in Jazz Theory and groove playing if you're interested in working on that stuff. Let me know! | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
