Lots of amazing teachers and convenient times! Flexible scheduling! Students get discounts on merchandise and the chance to participate in our Student Showcases! Here at TuneTown, every student is a unique individual with aspirations of their own. Since 2004, we've provided Southern Maine with the best lessons experience available.
You should start with whichever you want to play. If you want to shred guitar solos like Jimi Hendrix, you may not enjoy playing acoustic. If you want to accompany yourself singing some Joni Mitchell songs, you may feel out of place with an electric. Shaun comes to TuneTown from Berklee College of Music in Boston where he is an instructor.
While it is true a 4-string bass is tuned just like the top 4 strings on a guitar, the way you approach the instrument and your role in the band is very different from guitar. Most electric basses have 4 strings. If you want to have room to go a bit lower you may want a 5-string. They also make 6 and 7-string basses, but those generally go higher in pitch and may not be practical for the person just getting started on bass. He has a strong background with the guitar, specifically classical and jazz guitar.
Piano is an excellent instrument to start on. Some say it's the best instrument to start on because it's the easiest to learn music theory on. It's very easy to see the patterns and relationships between the notes. Ben offers classical and jazz training, music theory, and the technique required to understand and perform well in any idiom.

My family was given the space and time to look at and try the instruments. The owner was kind and patient and taught us about the equipment before we purchased it. Thank you for a great experience. We will be back, and are glad to have had the opportunity to shop here for the last 15 years.

Friendly, educated and talented staff. This is not a chain store! This is a family run business where customers have the option of becoming part of that family. A place where you can feel comfortable, at home. Where no question is considered trivial.

Taking lessons at Tune Town has grown and fostered what we hope will be a life long passion for music. Our daughter has gained so much confidence in all areas of her life through her pursuit of music.
