  • Excellent. Better than I expected, actually
I bought this book because I've been practicing on the couch as I watch tv for years. This is not ALL my practice, but watching tv or a movie is a good time to mindlessly rattle off patterns and work on stamina and such. This book delivers on its prommise, with clever exercises and ideas. It even includes a whole hand/finger workout you do *without* an instrument. Perfect not only for couch vegging out, but when you're in a waiting room, or on a boring family reunion. They're almost imperceptible if you do them right. I think this book could very well be used as a primer for beginners. I mean, I'm sure that starting with hand/finger exercises right off the bat can only help a beginner develop finger dexterity. It has a very basic notation and tab explanation, and it covers the major scale, its diatonic triads, and major and minor pentatonics. Hell, ENTIRE CAREERS have been built off of that knowledge alone! If you're a bass player, get this book. ... show more
