Electric or upright bass lessons in Montreal?
The 2 most common types of basses are electric and upright. Electric bass is generally used in popular music, rock and funk. It looks like a guitar however it normally only has 4 strings and is tuned an octave lower. If you are interested in playing rock, funk or hip-hop, this would be the instrument for you.  The upright or standup bass is more commonly used in Jazz, old time Country, Bluegrass, Rockabilly and of course classical music. Â

• Alternatively, you can search on Kijiji for a used bass. Â
• The Facebook page Vente et échange d’équipement de musique is also a good place to look.
• Read about the affordable Squier P Bass guitar by Fender.Â
Should I buy a 4 string bass or 5 string bass?
Both are good. 4 string basses are normally tuned EADG and are still the norm. 5 string basses are tuned BEADG and are very common. There are even 6 string basses tuned BEADGC. Buy what you like and start playing.
How much does a beginner bass guitar cost?
A brand new bass guitar of good quality, can be purchased from a store for as little as $300. Many excellent instruments can be bought in the $400 -$700 price range. Used prices will be roughly 70% of new prices. Yamaha, Fender and Ibanez are well known brands of bass guitars.
How much does a beginner upright bass cost?
Well, no shortcuts. A beginner acoustic upright bass of good quality, made of plywood, setup well, with needed accessories will be about $3000 new from a store. Used upright basses might be about 60% of that. Buying a used upright bass, with the assistance of an upright bass teacher, is a great way to start. Stay away from those $600 upright basses found on eBay and similar! They are not good instruments for beginner players to learn on.
Which part of the city can I have my lessons?
All across the island of Montreal. Classes are also available in the West Island, Longueuil, Brossard and the south shore.
