1. TEACHERS WHO ARE PROFESSIONAL MUSICIANS.
The teachers at Bristol House of Music are James Ashbury (guitar, bass, ukulele, songwriting instructor) and Kit Bennett (piano, vocals, music theory and songwriting instructor). They have both played professionally for most of their working careers. Having toured with the likes of Robert Plant, George Ezra, Jake Bugg, Tom Odell and more they add a professional aspect to the lessons where you can ask advice on performing live and working your way to the top or just ask them some cool stories!

2. EXPERIENCED TEACHERS
It is important when you go for a guitar lesson that the teacher is experienced and can get the best results. Allowing you to learn quickly and efficiently and make sure that the time in the lessons does actually improve your playing. All the lessons at Bristol House of Music have aims and objectives and each lesson you will go over what you learnt the previous week and then build on those skills.



Dont just take it from us though, check out this testimonial from one of our guitar students Alexandra-

“After a few lessons with James, I found my playing technique and understanding of guitar theory had improved quickly compared to when I was trying to teach myself the guitar. Thanks to my tutor’s patience and encouragement, I was soon playing my favourite riffs and songs. What was also great about the lessons was how they were tailored to your own skills and music interests, while also introducing you to new ones.”

3. TOP QUALITY INSTRUMENTS
If you are going to learn an instrument then you need to be surrounded by top quality instruments. At Bristol House of Music we have the best, top quality acoustics, mandolins, ukuleles, electric guitars, professional amps (Fender Hot Rod Deluxe and more), pro recording software (Logic Pro X), Yamaha upright piano, Roland keyboard and loads more.

Learning on a real piano is important when learning the instrument. It helps you understand how it actually feels to play and you get used to the weighted keys and how they are meant to feel.

We do also have a Roland FP-4 fully weighted keyboard if that is the sound you are going for.
