This book is the second in a series of six books that I believe will take you, the reader, on a journey to becoming a completely passionate bassist. Building on the foundation of good technique you begin to explore Scales, Arpeggios and Rhythm. Next you learn to combine them to make music. The audio tracks enable you test what you have learnt and create your own bass tracks within the knowledge you have already learnt. You are beginning to be creative and even though there is a long way to go you can start. When I first started playing bass in bands all I knew was one scale shape and how to move it around the fret board to make every scale. The best way to be a bassist is to take every little thing you learn and use it. The thing with bass is that it is primarily a support instrument so you don’t have to know everything to be able to play in a band. This book will give you a very good grounding in one key. Book 3 will expand that to all the keys played in music. Enjoy the next step on the journey and use what you learn.
