Jammit is a musical isolator, which silences other instruments, so you can concentrate on learning the specific instrument you choose.

You can record your own lines on top, and it also transfers everything to notation or tab, which you can slow down as the song is playing!

Check the video for my review….

Such a fun Bass line to play!

The note on the eight fret can be bent or vibrated!

Here is the additional lesson. If anyone wants the book, the details are here:

How to play “Re-arranged” by Limp Bizkit! A bass lesson….

Nice and simple, but fun bass song to learn, Fat stringers!

NWA’s version of Charles Wrights classic.

Great fun to play!

Here we have another Slap precision exercise!

This one has a little more funk than the others, and is a straight line. Click here for a link to the previous exercise.

Remember, the purpose of these exercises is to get your slap technique down, nice and tight, without hitting other strings, etc. Focus, Padawan.

Here is the tab:

Nice and simple, and using a plectrum as well! (Although using fingers is also fine)

Not Just another Bass tuition Book!

(Click image to purchase-temporary introduction Price!)

Book one

These series of short books aren’t similar to most other Bass tuition books.  They are a small archive of the things and ideas that have helped me become the Bass player I am today.  A little insight into my way of doing things, if you will.

All those people that have asked me how I use the techniques used in my solo bass guitar songs have the information right here. The questions are answered.

Why “Not just another Bass guitar book”?  Well, there are plenty of books out there that teach you how to play music, and a Bass, theoretically.  Although these books are important (and I’d still recommend them!) they are quite lifeless, and seem to lack practical ideas. A lot are just repeated content from another book that was written the year before. Copy and paste tuition.  This is more a book of practical ideas, and therefore not just another Bass guitar book.

So, You might call it a book of notes and ideas.  Hopefully, something positive for everyone of all standards.

The book is aimed at intermediate players, but there is a lot of stuff for beginners in there as well. I didn’t want to just make it at one level, so i’ve tried to mix it up a bit, so everyone can benefit. This is certainly the case with the 61 free bass riffs.

What you are getting with the first book:

61 original Bass riffs to learn. all created by me, in all manners of genres and difficulty levels.  Punked, funked, slapped, tapped, strummed and more!  There are loads of riffs to play with for beginners and upwards!

An extra folder full of beats for you to practice with, in all different BPM’s and time signatures.

An e-book, with original and practical lessons, and video examples. The first book chapters chapters include:

Introduction.

On Technique.

Role of the Bass.

Bad habits you’d do well to avoid.

Playing with three fingers.

Jedi Bass tricks.

Downstrokin’ and upstrokin’.

Finger picking.

Composing simple Basslines.

Some timing and rhythm exercises.

The text files will be as PDF’s. Most modern computers will have a PDF reader. If not, there are plenty on google to choose from.

To view the videos, I’d recommend a free bit of software called VLC. Movie files are mixed between .MOV’s, and .M4V’s. I’m not sure if standard players will play both types of files, but if they don’t, get yourself a copy of VLC:

*The files themselves come as four .ZIP files.  I had to do this, because the file was WAY too big by itself.  So, I had to split them, just so it’s easier for you guys to download.

If you have any questions about the book.  Any questions at all, please ask them in the special category I set up in my forums.  If we keep all the questions in one place, other people can benefit from them.  Click HERE to be taken to the forum category (You’ll need to join)
