5 out of 5 stars Great!   January 5, 2009
I bought this for my son along with a new bass guitar for Christmas. Within just a couple days, he was playing recognizable tunes. He has said the lessons are very easy to understand. A great starter lesson book!!


5 out of 5 stars If you only buy one bass book, this is it!   September 7, 2008
I started out with another book, All About Bass. Big mistake. Then I found this book, Ed Friedland's bass method on Amazon and am very happy with it. I especially like that it progresses slowly, with each string, and includes short CD songs right from the beginning lesson. This nailed it as far as getting me to want to practice on a regular basis. The reward of sounding good early sure helps. I took my time through Book One because I wanted to stress the basics. I'm still working through Books Two & Three, and playing along with the accompanying series Easy/More Easy Bass Lines, etc. A nice collection from Hal Leonard for sure.


5 out of 5 stars The Best For Bass Out There   August 3, 2008

This course is the best for bass guitar that I could find. One would still need assistance from a bass player but this will definitely get you started.


3 out of 5 stars Good if you already have the basics   July 9, 2008

This is a very good book if you already have the basics of reading music. Gives more emphasis to playing than practicing hand/fingering technics. Not realy for a first time player.


5 out of 5 stars Outstanding Value   May 26, 2008
This book includes 143 jam-packed pages and two CD's into a great package for the self-taught and beginning-to-intermediate players taking lessons. The book takes a well-rounded approach to bass playing, giving attention to essential scales, triads, ergonomic issues, and several styles. The book also touches on specialized techniques such as hammer ons and pop-and-snap.

Using this method at a slow and studied pace will equip the muscially-inclined bass player to hold their own in most pop-music settings. If you want to be the next Jaco Pastorius, however, the journey only begins here.
