Bass Lessons Indiana

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Bass Guitar, Music, Electric Guitar, Classical Guitar, Acoustic Guitar

Similar to what is written above I prefer an approach that is rooted in the fundamentals.

Here I met some very serious musicians and learned power chords on electric guitar. Read More
