Instruments & Equipment

2-Day Session Participants

2-Day “Anyone Can Improvise!” Seminar w/Jamey Aebersold

Instruments during Jamey’s seminar are optional. Instruments are NOT required, though anyone with their instrument may be called upon to try some examples, or demonstrate concepts – strictly on a volunteer basis. There will also be a Jam Session on Saturday following the Seminar for those who have instruments and wish to participate.

If you are attending the week-long session in addition to Jamey’s 2-Day Seminar, please go HERE for instrument information. You WILL need your instruments for the week-long session!

2-Day Bass/Drum/Guitar Workshop Primer

GUITAR & BASS
If you are staying only for the 2-Day Session, you do not need to bring an amp. You will use one of ours. You still need to bring cables, cords, etc.

If you are attending the week-long session in addition to Jamey’s 2-Day Seminar, please go HERE for instrument information. You WILL need a personal amp for the week-long session!

Upright Bass Players should bring your own instrument and a pickup. If you are flying, we can provide rental basses … however, please keep in mind, the upright basses we offer are typically student model basses – they aren’t necessarily set up well and have higher action than you might be used to. People do use them every year and it gets them through the week just fine.

We cannot provide guitars.

If you need to borrow equipment, you must let us know BEFORE June 1st. You should know that there is no extra charge for us providing rental equipment. You can thank Jamey!
