The Facilities
Gumbley’s Music School has just opened a new premises in Studley which means brand new, top quality facilities for your lessons!
The Front room
The front room is where your tutor will greet you, there’s a small seating area and lots of cool records!
The Drum/band room
The Drum/Band room is very versatile. Mainly this room is used for Drum lessons and student band sessions, however we can also accommodate a range of other instruments due to the large interior space and its sound-proofing qualities! This room reduces the volume of all sound by around 55% meaning we are one of the few local music schools that can offer drum lessons on a full size acoustic kit without worrying about the noise! The room contains the following:
- Acoustic drum kit (Mapex Mars in white diamond finish)
- Electronic drum kit (Roland TD-07)
- Full PA system with mixing console
- Headphones
- Bass Amp (RedSub BA-60)
- Keyboard (Roland Go)
The Guitar Room
The Guitar room is a fantastic space, designed specifically for stringed instruments such as Guitar, Bass and Ukulele there is plenty of space for both the tutor and the student to enjoy a guitar lesson in this very cool room! Inside you will find:
- Guitar amps x 2 (Fender Mustang)
- Bass amps x 2 (Fender Rumble)
- Electric guitar for student use (Squier Bullet Stratocaster)
- Bass for student use (Ibanez GSR180)
- 3/4 size acoustic guitar for student use (Yamaha CS40II)
The Piano room
The Piano room is a fantastic space for piano students as we have both an acoustic upright piano and a digital piano. This means both the student and tutor can play at the same time, allowing for duets or songs that require accompaniment. The digital piano has a range of built-in sounds other than that of a piano, meaning, for example, that the tutor can play strings or organ to accompany the student’s piano playing. The piano room has:
- Acoustic upright Rogers piano (freshly serviced and tuned)
- Electronic digital Piano (Casio AP250)
- Sound-treated wall for good acoustics
The Waiting Room
This is a space for parents, family members and friends of students to relax in while waiting. Have a browse through some holiday brochures from our neighbours, Elite Escapes!
