Online Bass Lessons
Hi all
When I first started learning guitar I quickly gravitated to the JustinGuitar website and worked through his Basic and Intermediate courses to get a good grounding. I've just bought an Ibanez Mikro bass, just for the fun of it (and I love the sound of a well played bass) and was wondering if anyone knew of an equivalent to Justin for bassists? Ta!

Scott is a good place to start, but finding people you can play with is vital, the sooner the better. Bass is the mortar holding the musical bricks, and thus, the wall, together. I have mentored bass players who gained high function of the mechanics of the instrument practicing alone, and invariably the first thing needs be done is to help them break the habits of too fast, too fussy, too busy.
But, that said, you are standing at the threshold of a wonderful world! Welcome! And as much as I truly enjoy banjo, guitar, and mandolin, bass is the most fun of all. |

I’m the complete inverse of you. I’m a bassist trying to work on my acoustic guitar chops and have been looking for online tutorials outside of youtube. Good to know about Justinguitar. Concerning bass studies, I have used talkingbass.net. I absolutely love Marc’s tutorials. I highly recommend his Technique Builder course, even if you study elsewhere. |

Now that's groooovy baby! There is no mistaking that groove, from 3 ft. away, or 300 feet away, and that is what it's all about.
