Hal Leonard Bass Method Book 2: Book/CD Pack (Hal Leonard Electric Bass Method) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)There are two versions of this book. ISBN 079356378 comes with the CD. ISBN 079356378X does not come with the CD. Don't make the same mistake I did. I wanted the CD and had to return this book and reorder the correct version. Minus one star for Amazon packaging this in a special with Book 3 which comes with a CD while this one doesn't. Very misleading.

(More customer reviews)This book is very helpful and it covers many different styles ofplayingand different techiniques such as the "in and out" techniquewhich makes playing sixteen notes eaiser.It covers slapping, and justbasic right hand technique.It also hasa whole chapter on soloing andexplains basslines and turnaround and chords.The only problem is thatthere is no tablature,so you have to learn to read music, which there is achapter on. I really recommend this book.
