Together with the Guitar Institute, the bass school was founded over 20 years ago and has the reputation of being the outstanding place for bassists to develop their skills. Originally known as the Basstech, and more recently as the Bass Institute, the school was first, alongside the Guitar Institute, to develop formal accredited courses for those who wished to study contemporary music at the highest level.
