The Hat Posted March 27, 2013 Author Share Posted March 27, 2013 Apologies, my stupid fingers pressed submit by mistake. What I meant to say was, I know there are a mass of lessons on YouTube for beginners but can anyone recommend someone that does structured lessons, the kind that start with lesson 1 day 1 kind of thing ? I'm the kind of learner that prefers the structured approach. A lot of the beginner videos assume some prior knowledge but is there anything out there that assumes no prior knowledge ?

Coilte Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 IMO, while there are good You Tube clips out there, as you say, most of them are not structured. For twelve pounds, I think investing in the "Hal Leonard Bass Method" book (see link below) would be money well invested, as would getting a teacher (even better).

sarah thomas Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 I've just started on artistworks. It's cheaper than a teacher (the 3 month subscription price is the same amount I paid for a 2 hour lesson) and the material is structured. Every so often you are required to submit a video and will get a video response from the tutor. It's probably not as valuable as one to one lessons with a tutor, but on the basis that most people make the same sort of mistakes when starting out, I thought it would be good to be able to review lessons over and over again, see what other people have done and learn from the whole lot. Early days though! Hopefully, this link will work: http://artistworks.com/bass-lessons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
