As well as covering key aspects of music theory and useful information about the bass and how to play it, this edition covers

• Exploring the fretboard
• Basic rhythm patterns
• Chord structures

It also offers a collection of licks and riffs, as well as an insight into how famous bassists build their grooves. Right from the start, you can try out what you’ve learnt in a band context, which immediately helps you develop your ensemble playing and prepares you for joining a band later on. It also opens up the opportunity to develop your own ideas and give your creativity free rein. After all, intuition and a wealth of ideas are key criteria for making good and successful music. This edition contains a selection of simply arranged songs such as ‘Stand by Me’ and ‘Another One Bites the Dust’, which guarantee enjoyment whilst learning, provide motivation and, thanks to their familiarity, make progress visible more quickly. At the same time, it builds a solid repertoire that will make a great impression at jam sessions or first gigs.
