Its full of technical know how that covers intonation. action tuning and all kinds of expert advice. BUT that is not what this brilliant book is about. The music scales and exercises for bass are quite good. Get ready for School here. My mom is a retired pianist. She recommended this book amply. Its also somewhat big and heavy. Fantastic buy!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Not just for electric bass.By johnBig book. Large print fonts. Clear and simple yet practical examples throughout the topics reviewed. Nice explanation of Major scales in and out of first position. Great advice on bass adjustments. A reference book youll really go back to many times as your skill and understanding increases. Highly recommended.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. This book is perfect for where I amBy RamyacIm a old guy. I have been studying the Bass Guitar on - off for 5 years and continuously for the last 2.5 years. This book is perfect for where I am. The 5 Position System is very challenging to work all 12 keys. The repetition of the Major Mode in a particular position reenforces the sound of each mode for ear training. I would suggest that you practice each mode in ascending and descending. fingerings. The descending fingerings can get a bit interesting. I agree the those who say this will be a good reference book.
