The Hat Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 Can anyone point me towards a source for structured online lessons for bass beginners ? I know there are a multitude of online lessons covering most subjects but I have found I learn much better if I follow a structured path/course. Are there any out there ? Quote
Coilte Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 (edited) One of the best on line sites for bass IMO is : [url="http://www.studybass.com"]www.studybass.com[/url] Another is [url="http://scottsbasslessons.com/online-video-bass-lessons"]http://scottsbassles...eo-bass-lessons[/url] I find that books are better at providing a structured course. One of the best of these is "Bass Guitar for Dummies". Dont be put of by the "D" word. It's a great all round book for beginners. Comes with a CD too. You could check if your local library has it. Another good book is this : [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hal-Leonard-Bass-Method-by-Ed-Friedland-BOOK-CD-FREE-SHIP-/180885268759"]http://www.ebay.co.u...P-/180885268759[/url] It is possible to get all three volumes in one spiral bound edition at a very reasonable price. Each volume has it's own CD. Edited December 8, 2012 by Coilte Quote
