The Electric Bass Guitar originated in the 50s. The bass is used in all styles of music. Jaco Pastorius, bass player of Weather Report, helped evolve bass to a solo instrument as well. Due to requiring a certain hand strength, we recommend bass be taught to children no younger than 8 years old. For more advanced students, jazz theory, and full range scales are offered to learn.
