Hey

it's useful to be able to read the dots. Anything that gives you more information than you had, and enables you to find a piece you haven't even heard and play it can't be bad. It's far easier to sight read than say tab.

ok so you have to get your head around some theory, but that's yet again not a bad thing... unless you are content to plod instead of run.

Cheers

hey

You could try Graeme Carswell's tutorials:

[url="http://bass.songstuff.com/article/harmonizing_the_major_scale/"]Harmonizing The Major Scale[/url]

He plays a demo along with the theory

Hope it helps

Cheers
