persevere music - bass & guitar tuition
Hi - I'm Roland Wagstaff, founder and principal tutor at Persevere Music. I've
been teaching guitar, bass guitar and music theory to private students in the
Edinburgh area since 1998, but I've been playing since the early 1980s. I hold a
Higher National Diploma in Modern Musicianship and an Enhanced Disclosure
certificate. As well as teaching, I also perform and record with rock bands and
function bands throughout Scotland and the wider UK and Europe. The main
instruments I teach are electric bass and electric/acoustic guitar, encompassing
most popular styles from rock, metal and punk to folk, jazz and funk. Whether
you're a beginner or a more experienced player looking to take your skills to
the next level, I tailor my lesson-plans to each individual student so you'll
get the most out of my one-to-one classes and quickly begin to realise your
musical potential.
