vmaxblues Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 It occurred to me that with the cumulative knowledge on this forum, we should write a book about bass guitars, with review sections, polls, technical information, etc etc.. and write the kind of book we would all want to buy... Just a thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musky Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Not a bad idea, but then we haven't really got it together to write a complete wiki, let a lone a book! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutToPlayJazz Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Great idea... I keep thinking of writing the definitive series of tutor books, but sooo little time! There really isn't anything progressive enough out there for beginner players who want to play bass well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect our Basschat effort could run to several volumes Edited March 15, 2008 by Krysbass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
