Barrett School of Music offers bass guitar lessons in Tampa. And, guess what? We will come to you to teach any age or skill level how to play the electric bass. Meaning, all of our lessons are taught in students’ homes. Plus, our stylistic offerings are diverse. Our electric bass students study everything from Johnny Cash to Red Hot Chili Peppers or Metal to Rock and beyond. Tell us the artist or song you love. We will give you the education to play the bass with ease.

By contrast, our upright bass lessons in Tampa are also a best seller. For instance, we have middle school students studying in their school orchestra. 

However, some of our kids love crossover string music, like The Piano Guys. Yet, still others are jazz lovers, practicing stylistic standards. Whatever your unique musical passions may be, our teachers will get you there. Find out more about our all star team next…

We love our teaching team! It would be impossible to maintain such wide offerings without the most skilled bass teachers in Tampa in our music school. All Barrett School of Music teachers hold or are actively working toward a music degree from a major university. What’s more, they are all active performers in the community. We’ve got it all, from the USF Symphoic Orchestra, to Saint Pete Opera to Happy Hour at American Social. You can catch us anywhere and everywhere, practicing what we love.

So, when a student asks for Red Hot Chili Peppers, we’ve got it. Then, if another student is working on Classical upright bass, we’ve got that covered too. We love the creativity our students bring to the table. Moreover, we love giving them the tools for musical success.

Maybe, you’re reading through, but you don’t have specific goals yet. Perhaps, you don’t own your instrument yet. You’re not sure of the trajectory. You just know you’re a beginner. Well, we love beginners too!

Barrett School of Music teaches private bass lessons to many beginners. In fact, beginning bass students can be kids, teens or adults. We will teach age-appropriate fundamentals for electric and upright bass. That includes bowing technique, crossing strings and finger technique on upright bass. For electric bass, beginning technique is scales, ear training finger technique (again!).

When you register for our upright bass or bass lessons in Tampa, you also have tons of performance opportunities. Join us for the National Federation of Music Clubs Festival.
