I was a student of Jack's on Music Teachers, and I can't recommend him enough. He is an excellent teacher, very friendly, engaging, and approachable. He made learning the bass guitar very accessible and easy to understand. Jack is a dedicated music instructor who practices what he preaches and is wholeheartedly dedicated to his craft. Again, I can't recommend him enough.
