Teacher recommendations for Glasgow/West of Scotland?

[Oxnard Montalvo]

Hello hive-mind

I've been playing for about 2 years and I'm at the point of looking for a teacher. I've had a look for local teachers online but what I've seen doesn't really light my fire. They might be fine teachers but their sites don't inspire. I've looked at the well-known online tutorial sites but find them incredibly off-putting.

I'm looking to concentrate on technique and tie it in to the theory I already know from playing other instruments so someone who will simply guide me through a standard bass book isn't going to work for me. I want insights.

I work in Glasgow and live in Ayrshire so if anyone can vouch for a good tutor in this general geographic area, I'll stand you a pint.

Fingers crossed.

Not sure if Colin Cunningham is still taking pupils. Stunning player with great online resources. https://www.cocosbassment.com/

I would love to take lessons with him if I could find the time.

Thanks for the tip John. I had a look at his site but it doesn't seem like he does one to one tuition.

Ach well. The hunt goes on.
