Harmonics for the Bass Guitarist & Contemporary Composer

[Michael Kraft]

Hi Bass Chat Community!

My book 'Harmonics for the Bass Guitarist & Contemporary Composer' was recently published, just in time for the holiday season! The book is suitable for beginners and experienced bassists, as well as composers interested in utilizing harmonics. Here is some basic info about the book -

'Harmonics for the Bass Guitarist & Contemporary Composer' demystifies the often misunderstood and overlooked extended technique for electric bass. It begins by introducing the student to the Harmonic Series and follows by mapping out and notating the all obtainable harmonics. The harmonics are then reduced into three main positions, with ample scales and chords presented in each position. The book concludes with 14 Etudes that put the theory into practice. Throughout the book, the bassist is confronted with material that he/she is already familiar with, thereby accelerating the learning process. The composer can use the book as a reference on what to avoid, what to approach with caution, and what to use without constraint.

The book is available internationally through Amazon, Create Space and other retail outlets [url="https://www.createspace.com/5759232"]https://www.createspace.com/5759232[/url]
