Your studio's teaching deserves a home
Right-hand technique gets corrected in lessons but rarely on the page. Groove vocabulary is loose across teachers. Slap, walking bass and reading get introduced at different times by different teachers. C3NTR is a quiet place to write it all down once, in your studio's voice.
Who this is for
Studios with multiple teachers
Two or more teachers sharing students or rotating cover. C3NTR holds the shared standard so every lesson draws from the same library.
Studios with band programmes
You run ensemble classes. Content locked by grade keeps newer bassists solid on time while advanced students prepare full sets.
Built for teachers, not for IT
Your teacher opens the app, taps Edit, and writes the next groove breakdown in plain prose. The next lesson, the bassist arrives knowing the line.
Write directly in the app
Like a notepad. New articles are drafts until you publish, so nothing goes live by mistake.
Mobile-first authoring
Edit on the phone between classes or on the way home. The same library, the same edit screen.
A working library in under an hour
Import the starter template in a few taps. Edit anything that doesn't fit. Publish when ready.
RGT bass grades, RSL grades or your studio's progression
Content locked by grade, in your studio's progression
Tag any article with a minimum grade. Grade 1 sees stance and basic time. Grade 5 sees walking bass. Grade 8 sees advanced repertoire. The same library, the right view per student.
A glossary in English (with musical Italian) and English
Bass guitar carries its own vocabulary. C3NTR's glossary holds the terms in one place: the English (with musical Italian) names, your studio's translation, and the article each term appears in.
- Root note
- The root note is the note a chord is named after and built on, the C in a C chord..
- The four strings (E A D G)
- The bass guitar's four strings are tuned..
- Fret
- A fret is one of the metal strips set across the neck..
- Fingerstyle
- Fingerstyle is plucking the strings with the fingertips of the plucking hand..
- Muting
- Muting is quieting the strings you are not playing so they don't ring or buzz..
- Bass clef
- The bass clef is the staff used to write music for low-pitched instruments..
Exams, recitals, jam nights
C3NTR isn't only the library. Schedule exam dates, post when a recital is coming up, and let students see what's ahead. Announcements land on their Today tab and events sit on the calendar.
Start from our Bass Guitar template
A working starter with 16 articles, 2 short videos, a 11-terms glossary across 5 tags (Getting Started, Foundations, Practice, Progression, Resources). Import in a few taps, then edit anything that doesn't fit your school. Every article, term and tag is yours from the moment you import.

Common questions
Can students only see their grade's material?
Yes. Tag any article with a minimum grade. Beginners see only basics. Teachers and senior students always see everything.
Does it cover RGT, RSL, Trinity Rock & Pop?
Yes. The starter is exam-board neutral. RGT, RSL, Trinity Rock & Pop or your own progression can adapt the syllabus without rewriting.
Can my studio customise the bass guitar template?
Yes. Every article, exercise and term is editable. Add your studio's repertoire, your favoured method books and your house standards.
How long does it take to set up?
Most schools have a working library in under an hour. Import the starter template in a few taps, then edit anything that doesn't fit. Starting blank takes a little longer. Allow an hour or two to write your first ten articles. Students can use the app the day you publish.
Do I have to stop using my booking system?
No. C3NTR is a knowledge library for your curriculum, terminology and progressions. Booking, billing and scheduling stay with the tools you already use.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. Seed is free forever for up to 30 students, with no credit card required. Move up to School (£39/mo) or Academy (£69/mo) when you outgrow it.
