How about Bass buzz and talking bass on ytube

all great answers many thanks folks 

I really like the jazz/blues bass tunes

So I’ve a bass and wanting to learn obviously, at the moment private lessons are out of the question but I know their probably the best way to learn, 

Ive been given the Hal Leonard complete series book. 
Is this a good alternative way of learning the bass 

Hi all 

what strings would help to give a classic double bass sound for jazz 

OK kids bought me a Bass I've the Hal Leonard book, any hints tips to get started? I quite like Jazz so that's where my journey is heading, how can I make my bass sound more mellow like an upright bass? 

Hi all
My kids bought me a bass guitar, a Harley Benton standard series and basic amp and fancy giving this a real go. Also came with a couple of books Hal Leonard bass method and bass guitar for dummies. Unfortunately live in an extremely rural location and their are no teachers or classes anywhere near me, I've looked and asked. So its me the books and youtube. So where do I start?????
I've a liking for Jazz especially ones with a heavy bass sound like Dave Brubeck's take 5, Oscar Peterson's Night train. All of which somewhere in the music feature a good bass section (double bass)
So do you learn tabs or notation, advive on good youtube sites etc
Any help, info would be greatly appreciated
