Benjamin Bakle

Ben Bakle has studied music since the age of five. He began his career in music by taking seven years of piano lessons from several independent teachers, as well as graduate students at IPFW. When in middle school, he played trumpet for the school band. At the age of thirteen he began taking classical guitar lessons under Bob Ferguson. From here, he began to look at music from a completely different angle. Ben started to learn electric and within two years of playing, he joined a band called “The Mystery Machine.” He later went to IU Bloomington were he studied criminal justice and information technology, during which time, he took several guitar classes. He then returned to Fort Wayne and began his career at Conser Music were he has been able to take lessons on such instruments as saxophone and violin as well as picking up different guitar and bass playing techniques from many of the other Conser Music staff. He has also been in several other bands such as “Stone Symphony” and most recently "CRASH".
