Fingerboard Harmony for Bass (Bass Instruction) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book efficiently combines fingerings with music. (While most books rely on technique which is useless).
Unfortunatly, most guitarists and bassists focus on scales and arpeggios only without making music only to show off their skill.
But that ain't skill, force without emotion is only mass.

I improved my harmonical awareness with this book which greatly improves my overall musicianship (not only my bass playing).

Already ordered ear training, gary, your the teacher of my dreams.

Ultimate Ear Training for Guitar and Bass Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As a bassguitar teacher for almost 20 years now I have noticed that most advanced bassplayers have the tendency to play either "thinking" and "seeing". What I mean is: they look at a part and see, let's say, a C minor chord. Immediatly there is an association with the graphic on the neck like in little flashes. Or a complete scale. And they SEE all the options. But these options are often playedrandomly. So theoretically their lines are right but they sound bizar. It is because their knowledge of these graphics is not connected to the main thing: The Ear!
Gary Willis has written the method that I would have loved to have written. In this method he connects the ear to the knowledge that very often is already there. Finally someone wrote the book in which the basis of good improvisation is explained. Thanks Gary, this is gonna be my bible!

101 Bass Tips: Stuff All the Pros Know and Use (Bass Instruction) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)There's a lot of useful information in this book. It's not a theory book or a practice book. It's just what the title says, a collection of tips, ideas, suggestions. So you don't get yet another compilation of scales to practice, but you do get a tip to set up a drone tone to practice your intonation with. It's one of the best books I've seen for basic stuff like setup and string replacement and one of the few that will answer most of your questions about fretless.
