About
Founder’s Notes
Welcome to my website. I've been teaching guitar and bass for over 25 years. I was previously based at Kettering's longest serving Music shop Make Music. I am now concentrating fully on teaching and repairs. I am still based in Kettering and teach from my home studio. I have also been a gigging musician for over 30 years gaining much experience along the way.
Guitar & Bass Lessons
I have helped many musicians achieve success over the years and many more to simply enjoy and understand the nature of music. So if you just want to learn your favourite riff/pop song or even want to go as far as writing your own epic I can help you with this. I have taught from thrash metal through to country and western,and all styles in between and have enjoyed them all.
Repairs
Having been based at make music for many years I have undertaken all manner of instrument repairs. From Violins through to drum kits. Specialising in string instruments. I am well versed in all manner of jobs from simple string replacements through to snapped necks. In my opinion most instruments can be salvaged or improved upon.
I also undertake instrument set ups and electrical repairs.
