Bass

Ask almost any musician about what the most important instrument in a band is, and he will most likely tell you that the bass is the one instrument that he depends on and misses most if it is gone. The bass is so important to provide solid timing and to add a fuller, deeper, more robust sound to the song.  Add a bass to any group or to congregational singing, and you will quickly realize the improvement it makes.

The great thing about the bass is that it is the easiest instrument to learn how to play! The catch is that bass is almost never taught using gospel music as the theme. We’re striving to change that. We are working to provide complete video instruction for the bass, and we want your input.

Banjo

Who doesn’t love the banjo? Everyone loves the beautiful tones of the 5 string banjo, and the unique way that the banjo is played captures the imagination of every wanna be banjo picker. The banjo is a powerful element in gospel music and its renditions of songs like Amazing Grace, Power in the Blood, How Great Thou Art, and countless other gospel songs have blessed hearts and glorified God for decades.

However, gospel banjo instruction is scarce -- very scarce. Here at thegospelworkshop.com, we are doing something about that problem. We are working to provide complete video instruction for the banjo, and we want your input.

Mandolin

Don’t let it’s small stature mislead you. The mandolin can compete with any instrument when it comes to making great music! A powerful little instrument both as a lead instrument and as a key cog in the rhythm section, the mandolin is loved by young and old alike. Exquisitely designed, the rich full tone of the mandolin along with its small size make it a favorite of people who are wanting to learn an instrument.

The mandolin is a fun instrument to play, and gospel songs played on it make for wonderful worship whether alone or with others. Sadly, gospel music has been almost completely forgotten when it comes to mandolin instruction. Enter thegospelworkshop.com. It is our goal to fill that void. We are working to provide complete video instruction for the mandolin, and we want your input.
