Bass Guitar Tutor, Teacher, Instructor
Thanks for visiting my profile - I'm Jon Rattenbury and I play and teach guitar and other fretted instruments. I've been involved with music professionally for 25 years.
Do you want to learn the guitar, bass or ukulele? I am a professional guitar teacher that has helped hundreds of students of all ages achieve their musical goals.
NOW TEACHING ONLINE - I've teach students using Zoom, Skype, Facetime and MS Teams. Get in touch for a FREE consultation and technical setup so that you can have online guitar lessons.
I have taught guitar in Sussex for 25 years, both privately and in schools, colleges and university. I help students with auditions, performances, music exams and just getting better at playing. Whether you want to learn classical guitar, electric guitar, acoustic guitar, bass guitar or ukulele, I have the knowledge and experience to ensure you can progress quickly.
I provide tuition for music theory and often contribute practical help and guidance for composing and song-writing. I even have experience on lute and baroque guitar, if you have an interest in early music. For those interested in singing while playing guitar or ukulele, I can share my own singing and accompanying experience and help you find your voice.
My wide experience teaching children and teenagers ensures that students will enjoy learning their instrument while making real progress. Past and present students have worked on music A-level, GCSE and IB performances, undergraduate university degree coursework, practiced for concerts and gigs, prepared for auditions and for music grade exams.
I also teach adults, from complete beginners to university students, to other guitar teachers who want to widen their knowledge. Also for adult classical guitarists, I run a regular guitar group. This is great for sight-reading, learning new repertoire and musicianship. It's also good fun and it's a friendly and relaxed group.
I have worked as a music examiner for RSL (Rockschool) and IBO, and helped RSL & ABRSM with music syllabus development, so I have a very good understanding of music qualifications.
I have enhanced DBS certification for working with children and vulnerable adults, and Public Liability Insurance.

One of the great joys of playing an instrument is to become able to capture the emotive force that the artistes you so admire can evoke.
Discover how they do it. What scales they use, how they create their sublime musical phrases, what their vibrato is like, what ornamentation they favour...
No doubt you want to get a foot in the door fast.
Learn some power chords and play along with your favourite records in the first lesson.
Don't feel abashed about lacking any previous experience. It's not neccessary. I've taken many adult total beginners up to public performance level.
Music theory, Rock, Pop, Acoustic Guitar and Bass Grades.
You don't have to do them but it's nice to be able to guage your progress and if you're hoping to do a GCSE in music or go to a music college being able to show your credentials can be essential to getting an audition.
My students have a 100% pass rate across 30 years.

I have been playing guitar for 16 years and teaching music for 3 years. I have been involved in a variety of different bands and ensembles within that time. My main focus throughout this time has been all kinds of rock music but I also have lots of experience in metal and acoustic singer/songwriter styles. I qualified from Leeds College of Music, gaining a 2:1 degree in Music Production and Performance, and possess a passion for music and teaching. I have recently completed a Post Graduate Certificate of Education in Music at Edge Hill University, achieving a Distinction in the process.
I take a very professional approach to teaching and I usually like to start the student off with a song to allow them to enjoy playing immediately. No matter what their ability I find a student is always able to learn a song they know and with this approach they progress much faster. I can take you all the way from a very beginner through to advanced levels. I take a practical and direct approach and would expect the student to be involved from the very beginning.

I'll show you all the tips and tricks and theory how I see it but most importantly I want to taylor the lessons to be around what your own goals with the instrument are.

I have a lifelong passion for music and a range of professional experiences in the industry such as performing on a cruise ship, depping for a professional function band, performing as a solo covers act, running my own music production business and working as a multi-instrumental solo artist. Achieving my degree in Professional Musicianship from BIMM Bristol and in the years since, making money as a Musician has given me a wealth of knowledge and experience that I would love to share with aspiring musicians.
As a multi-instrumentalist playing Guitar, Bass, Drums and Vocals I believe I can take a well-rounded approach to teaching. I can help students thrive in learning how to play their instrument, gain knowledge about music theory related to their instrument, seek musical opportunities, and help them achieve their musical grades, especially as I recently went through the process of achieving a distinction in Grade 8 vocals, my former weakest instrument.

I've had a multifaceted life since birth - my parents moved me immediately from Russia to the United States, then ten years later to Geneva in Switzerland. Finally at 20 I made my own decision and moved to the UK to pursue music and most of all, witness the comedic and cultural clout of the British Isles I had so long admired. Here, I have managed pubs, reviewed live gigs, finished a degree and several diplomas, worked as a financial journalist, done a brief stint as a court reporter, played rock/jazz/pop shows, and much more. I am now ready to impart the knowledge I gathered in my twenties to whomever may wish to listen!
I take any job I do extremely seriously and would make sure to plan the lesson in line with your needs.

I enjoy teaching lessons that are relevant to each individual students. This requires a bit more work for me to prep but I think my students benefit from every lesson being tailored to them. We'll learn all the chords, scales, technique and knowledge encountered in the grade books but through more unique and engaging content.
For those who wish to take grades I am happy to accommodate! You can find a lot more more details on my website: www.***

Testimonials :-
David Pollard, Airdire
When my son (11) wanted to learn to play the guitar we looked around for a tutor to teach him and are very happy to have found Campbell. I could write this review myself explaining how his playing has developed and progressed over the last 9 months and how good Campbell is at encouraging him etc. However since it is my son who is getting the lessons I asked him instead and he said: "playing guitar is cool, but playing with Campbell is much more fun. We would definitely recommend Campbell.
Audrey Tweedie, Airdrie
Campbell is pleasant, patient and takes time with his students, nothing is ever a bother, my nine year old shouts Campbell's here the minute she sees his car, he is also teaching my 50 year old husband, and we have nothing but praise for him .
K. Hart, Newarthill
Campbell has taught my son from the day he had his first Guitar. My son is not only able to play with confidence but at a level where if wanted has the ability to take on his own students at only 17years old.

We have had Campbell as our daughter's tutor for over six months and he has helped her a great deal. He seems very thorough in his approach and more importantly he shares his love of the guitar and music and has increased her confidence no end.
