Horrible! by C. Painter 2 Stars
March 19, 2009
BEGINNING bass? You have got to be kidding. The DVD starts off simple enough with basic into to various bass parts, tuning and then some simple one string at a time plucking. After the first couple of minutes, the guy has you playing blues riffs and explaining how a G can sometimes be an A, but a F is always an F, but sometimes a B can be a C and a D can be a G sharp other times, blah blah blah...whatever! I mean come on...to be a BEGINNING instructional format this moves way too fast too soon. I should have listened to my inner voice when it arrived and resisted opening it to exchange it for something else but I didn't. Looks like it will be garage sale fodder.

If I wanted to just sit and watch someone play bass I would have gone to a jazz club by O. Zuyev (Seattle) 2 Stars

If I wanted to just sit and watch someone play bass I would have gone to a jazz club, and I think that would have been more educational. I ended up just having to go out and buy another DVD.

This series is great. Good coverage on the basics, really gets you started on what you need to know to begin playing.
