lowdown Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 (edited) This might be of use to anyone who might want to explore the Subject. Its online and free, Also a section on Jazz Bass. The Exercises come with audio examples, so good for the old ear training. Looking through it, seems to be more of a taster/starter. But some plenty of stuff to help you on your way. Northen sounds from the Garritan site.

Alun Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Looks good, thanks for posting this. This quote made me laugh though.... "an electric bass is not any kind of substitute for a string bass and should be written for as a different instrument, suitable for music with intentionally dominating bass parts only" Cheers Alun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
