This Time Next Year Bassers!

Moon K 06.02.2018

Simply amazing and great methodology.
Just start on week one and work your way through each week until your on week fifty three and you then realise you've completed a whole year.
This time next year I shall be a fully competent bass player.
Easy to use I just do one of the exercises each week adding a new one each week.
Layout of the book is easy and logical.
I like having a CD but it is real easy to download the audio from Hal Leonard and in this day and age it is all about the downloads.
Buy this book and you will not look back as your band mates realise you are heading towards being a great bass player.

This Time Next Year Bass Players!

Great Exercises

New to bass and found this book very helpful to get started.
Still working through it but the exercises are fun and musical.

Very fun daily activity

EatYourFruits 23.10.2024

I haven't played bass for about 4 years and recently rekindled my relationship with making music, bought a bass guitar and joined a band. I was never the best or most creative musician anyway.

This book's purpose is to 'train your fingers', and I think it does a great job at making it not a chore, but a fun exercise. Everything it makes you play sounds cool and it encourages you to experiment and go your own pace. It starts you off with chromatic walking lines that I could never have imagined, but following the instructions it just makes sense to me and makes me feel smart.

I've only done the first 5 lessons so far, but I like it very much and I'd recommend this to anyone who has a little experience playing and reading music, or someone who's just starting out and can see a teacher once in a while to review and help with progressing through the book.

Etüden für den E-Bass

Anonymous 02.03.2016

Das vorliegende Werk stellt so eine Art Etüden-Heft für den E-Bass dar. Ein Rundumschlag durch die Spieltechnik mit einer gehörigen Portion Geläufigkeitsübungen also. Das ganze in einem mal mehr mal weniger gelungenen musikalischen Rahmen verpackt. Ein schönes Konzept, macht es einem das lästige Üben der Spieltechnik doch ein gutes Stück angenehmer.
Die "Aerobics" kommen dabei gerade bei den chromatischen Übungen nicht zu kurz, hier sind manchmal ganz schön ungewohnte Lagenwechsel dabei. Blutige Anfänger werden auch deswegen mit diesem Buch nicht glücklich werden.
Wünschenswert wären zwischendurch noch verschiedene Fingerübungen und ähnliches gewesen, wie sie in den Guitar Aerobics vorkommen. Trotzdem ein preiswertes und gelungenes Werk.

Für diejenigen, die die Audios nicht nutzen wollen sind hier die Zieltempi der einzelnen Übungen in BPM:
100 100 100 80 80 80 80 80 80 80
140 130 130 150 110 100 90 75 110 120
120 110 110 110 110 60 100 100 70 110
110 110 110 100 100 100 100 80 100 100
120 95 95 95 95 85 85 95 95 100
110 90

Mein Wochenplan sieht dann übrigens folgendermaßen aus:
Tag 1: 4 x Zieltempo - 20
Tag 2: 2 x Zieltempo - 20 und 2 x Zieltempo - 15
Tag 3: 2 x Zieltempo - 15 und 2 x Zieltempo - 10
Tag 4: 2 x Zieltempo - 10 und 2 x Zieltempo - 5
Tag 5: 2 x Zieltempo - 5 und 2 x Zieltempo
Tag 6: 2 x Zieltempo und 2 x Zieltempo + 5
Tag 7: 4 x Zieltempo + 5
