Bass & Guitar
The bass and guitar form the backbone of any worship band — one carrying rhythm, the other carrying emotion.
Our Bass & Guitar Instruction program is designed to help musicians master tone, timing, and teamwork.
We teach both rhythm and lead techniques, ensuring every note contributes meaningfully to the song’s structure and message.
For bassists, we begin with fingerstyle fundamentals, string muting, and groove-building techniques.
Students learn how to follow the kick drum pattern, shape tone with EQ, and apply dynamics to match worship flow.
We explore scale patterns, walk-ups, and fills that support transitions smoothly.
Each lesson includes live play-alongs with backing tracks, teaching how to fit into a mix rather than dominate it.
Guitarists focus on chord voicings, strumming patterns, and alternate tunings commonly used in contemporary worship.
We teach layering techniques for electric players — using delay, reverb, and compression through pedalboards or amp simulators such as Helix or Positive Grid.
For acoustic players, we emphasize rhythm consistency and how to complement piano or synth players in ensemble settings.
We also train both bassists and guitarists in signal chain optimization and tone shaping.
Students learn how to work with sound engineers, use DI boxes, and prepare balanced input levels for livestream clarity.
Through hands-on sessions, they develop listening skills to adjust in real time during live events.
Spiritually, we remind every musician that their sound carries authority.
When played with intention, every note invites presence and unity.
Our team ensures each bassist and guitarist not only understands technique but also the power of humility, timing, and listening — hallmarks of mature musical ministry.
