“Working with Nigel has enabled me to progress from simple strumming to complex pieces requiring techniques I never thought I would be able to master. His knowledge of music theory has helped me understand music and make it a more satisfying experience. He is always encouraging and very patient, explaining at each stage of the learning process.”
Steve Booker – guitar student (Pytchley)

“I’ve been learning to play the acoustic guitar with Nigel for 4 years now, and can confidently say he’s the best you’ll find. I’ve managed to study up to a Grade 6 standard and have received distinction grades in every exam! As I am also focusing on academic studies, he provides a supportive and relaxing environment in which to learn all the necessary skills.”
Bethany Lyne – guitar student (Wellingborough)

“I came to Nigel for lessons as someone who could already play but needed help with applying theory to my playing. He totally understood what I required and has been methodically working through the theory that supports my learning at a level that is just right for me. The lessons are fun and informative and I always leave inspired to go and practice.
I can recommend him as a tutor wholeheartedly, whatever level you are at the lessons will be pitched perfectly so you can become the best musician you can be.”
Paul Cooper – theory student (Wellingborough)

“Nigel has been teaching my daughter Bethany for four years now (please also read her own glowing review). He has always been unfailingly helpful and supportive, and is very knowledgeable on all aspects of the guitar and music generally. He has also managed to teach me to Grade 3 standard on the ukulele, which is certainly testament to his ability as a teacher! I can’t recommend him highly enough.”
James Lyne – ukulele student (Wellingborough)

“Nigel is an excellent teacher and has been teaching my children for 5 years now. He is very patient with my teenagers, and they have passed grade 6 . Nigel is extremely knowledgeable, and will look out pieces for my children, either for a special event or when they have heard something, and they want to know how to play it. Great teacher.”
Helen Watters – parent of guitar students (Huntingdon)

“I’ve been wanting to go back to guitar lessons for a while, and Mum saw Nigel’s advertisement in a book doing one-to-one lessons. I’ve really enjoy Nigel’s lessons, because if your trying to learn a song and you’re stuck, Nigel will help you to get unstuck. Three words, fun, friendly, for-everyone.”
Ryan Richards – guitar student (Kettering)

“The lessons are clear and engaging, and I have expanded my knowledge of music theory very quickly with Nigel’s help.”
Jacob Kerrou – student studying for Grade 5 Theory (Burton Latimer)

“I thoroughly enjoyed the session and it has really helped me understand how to get the best out of Cubase 7. Your explanations covered the principles behind how to record and produce music as well as the details of how to use Cubase to do this. You also gave me some really useful tips on where and how to look for the sounds that will suit my music. It was exactly what I had hoped for, and certainly showed me things that I never otherwise would have discovered. Thanks for a very enjoyable and productive morning!.”
Rob Martin – music producer (Buckingham)

“I contacted Nigel through the Steinberg website. He was very friendly and had great knowledge concerning Cubase. I arranged a 3 hour session to cover a lot of Cubase’s basic mechanics that were slowing down my workflow! We discussed several points concerning not only Cubase, but also music in general. From that, I’ve found the software to be capable of many different things! Nigel is some who I highly regard as knowing the software inside out and would recommend his help regardless what your motive is! Thanks Buddy.”
Rhys Heal – music producer (Leicester)

“I have had the privilege of working with Nigel on several occasions now, and every time there is this wonderful sense of accomplishment. Every song is a new experience! He has pioneered a quick, accurate & versatile creative process, which produces astonishing results that can be applied to practically any genre you can think of!”
Robert Porter – music producer (Rochford)

“I just wanted to say thank you for the training session you ran for us last week. We all enjoyed it very much and are looking forward to using Cubase with more confidence and understanding in our lessons.”
Jude Leigh – music teacher, The Jewish Free School (Brent)

“Thanks again for the great session on Cubase, the students really found it useful, as did I.”
Robin Norman – head of performing arts, Ken Stimpson Community School (Peterborough)

“Nigel ran two sessions at Ursuline High School in the Autumn Term 2012 helping us to set up our new Music Technology suite. He delivered INSET to staff and ran a separate workshop for the students introducing them to CUBASE. We could not have asked for more: the students thoroughly enjoyed his workshop, quickly learning how to compose using Cubase and they have made very good progress as a result: they are well on the way to composing excellent GCSE compositions. Nigel has continued to give support by email and phone and we would definitely use Honney-Bayes Productions again.”
Paul Williams – director of music & performance, Ursuline High School (Wimbledon)

“I asked Honney-Bayes productions to help me with what I thought was going to be a boring, time consuming job creating sound-bite clips for my website. I spoke to Nigel and his instant understanding of the issue and subsequent handling of the job means I will NEVER go anywhere else again for my audio needs. The job was completed within my expected timescale, the work was done correctly, all 400 plus clips, and the price was reassuringly within budget. If you’re looking for an audio production company, which provides great quality work, at affordable, yet professional pricing, Honney-Bayes Productions. Accept no substitute.”
Stuart Morrison, managing director, Marketing Potential (Guildford)

“Honney-Bayes Productions always provide excellent results… imaginative and on time, his work never disappoints.”
Jason Orbaum – creative director, Peer Productions (Woking)
