Teachers in DC?

[Classical_Thump]

I am looking to begin taking electric bass lessons after a few years off, and I was wondering if anyone could point me toward a good teacher in the Washington DC area. Looking to generally improve my playing, especially improvising. Thanks for helping a fellow bassist!

Couple of ideas for you:

There's a bass shop in Alexandria called Jive Sound that has a couple of guys teaching there; I haven't met them but their bios look good. linky:

Also, in McLean VA there's a lesson studio called All things Rock, and a very good bass player named John McCain (no kidding) teaches there. linkerino:

He plays with quite a few folks. I don't know what his schedule looks like right now. I'm no longer in DC. But I'd email him.

Here's a link to an old ad on WholeNote:

The link above gives a little more info but the email address in there is wrong. I don't know about the phone number.
