Introduction
I have been teaching for over 20 years. Many of my students have went on to graduate from prestigious music schools, Berklee, Cal Arts, Oberlin Conservatory , etc... Others have gone on to play professionally and some are enjoying playing the bass just for fun. I am also a Berklee Graduate and use many of the Berklee teaching methods and materials. I have performed and/or recorded throughout the States, and in Europe with players, Danny Carrey (Tool), Raymo, and Delacruz (Slightly Stoopid) Antonio Sanchez (Pat Metheny) Doug Webb (Freddie Hubbard) James Tartaglia etc... I teach all styles- Blues, Rock, Jazz, HipHop, etc.. and all levels from beginning to advanced. If you want to expand your playing to the next level, or you're a beginner looking to learn the bassics I can definitely help you, as I have with many other students on all levels. I teach from my fully equip LA air conditioned studio with capabilities to record audio/video lessons at your request. Check out my website for audio/video samples of my playing, and feel free to contact me if you have any other questions. - David Hilton I enjoy taking students to the next level in their playing. Watching and hearing a student progress to their enjoyment is very satisfying for me. I also enjoy taking a brand new beginning student through the bassics of holding their instrument to playing popular bass lines, to beyond. Feel free to contact me for any questions about my methods and approach to teaching. Thank you, David Hilton

David is awesome! His knowledge of bass and of music in general has really brought my playing and understanding of the bass's roll in music to a new level. His experience and education really make him a great teacher for players of all ability levels.

David is not only a very talented musician but also a great teacher. He really takes time to make sure you get the lesson and makes learning it a lot of fun. David is a true professional who is dedicated to teaching and that makes all the difference.
