Roy Vogt – The Teacher of Teach Me Bass Guitar
Roy Vogt has had an extensive 40-year+ career that has touched on various aspects of performance, study, and instruction. Focusing primarily on the electric bass, Vogt has taught university level bass instruction for more than 30 years, and has in fact earned a master’s degree in electric bass performance from the University of Miami.
Having played with many important names in the music business in hundreds of concerts around the world, Roy Vogt’s credentials are excellent. I feel this is important, because great players do not always make great teachers.
Roy has a really relaxed vibe, as you can see from the Teach Me Bass Guitar video, but he is very clear and does not waste time. He knows his stuff, and gets it across. Some players talk in circles or just do what they do without being able to articulate it very clearly, which is absolutely not the case with Roy Vogt. He is definitely the right man for the job for a course like this.
Roy Vogt in Teach Me Bass Guitar
Roy Vogt is able to fully utilize his wide range of experience in Teach Me Bass Guitar, giving you real world examples of HOW to use the various things you will learn in the course. It is one thing to learn a bunch of techniques, but another to have someone both explain and demonstrate how to use these techniques in actual live performance situations.
One example is the Nashville number system that is taught in Teach Me Bass Guitar along with traditional chord changes. Despite years of training and familiarity with how chord symbols work, I was never exposed to the Nashville number system as I had not dealt much with that area or style of music. However, knowing it opens up even more doorways an opportunities to play with different people in different parts of the world – something Roy Vogt has taken full advantage of.
