Ultimate Beginner Series - Bass Basics

Rating:
Summary: Reasonable Start
Review: This DVD is video transfer of the WB Bass Basics VHS video that has been out for many years. No new content, but the DVD is handy for skipping ahead and repeating.

That said, I tried it (having no prior bass experience) and found it to be a reasonable start. Less time is spent on the fundamentals and more time is spent covering a wide subject range... For example, does a first time bassist really need to learn how to slap and pop when you don't know what a chord is?? Hmmm...

This is much better than just a CD or VHS tape, but it won't turn you into Les Claypool.
