This easy-to-understand Electric Bass method is loaded with information. In the words of the author, " The Electric Bass is in a very exciting developmental period. No longer does it just provide 'low-end support'. Now entire songs are built around the bass line ." This comprehensive method provides the theory and technique needed to play contemporary Bass and it covers such modern effects as 'slap & pop' and right-hand hammering techniques. While note reading is taught, tablature is also presented. The companion video is included in this package available online. Online audio is also included.
