Learn bass guitar with step-by-step photos!
From the basics to getting started in the first band - here you will learn everything a bass player should know. Numerous exercises noted in tablature make it easy for you to practice with the additional rhythm line. Step-by-step recordings of the correct finger position also show you the correct fingering for each example. The exercises and pieces are notated in traditional notation with tablature to make it easy for beginners to get started right away.
The chord and scale libraries in this book are useful for reference for any bassist, and a small shopping guide will help the beginner find the right bass, amp, and accessories.
All original arrangements are included in full length on the CD - once in the band version with drums, keyboard and guitar, and once as a backing track without bass, which you can play along with straight away.
