Music Lessons in Ludlam, FL

Instruments: Bass Guitar

For beginning students I like to focus attention on fundamental technique on both hands, making sure that they use the correct finger positioning on the bass. As they advance, the student will begin to know the whole fretboard through scales and arpeggios (in all keys) so the student knows where all the notes are in the instrument. For intermediate to advanced students I recommend books like "Connecting Chords with Linear Harmony" by Bert Ligon, "Fingerboard Harmony for Bass" by Gary Willis, "Funk Bass Fills" by Anthony Vitti, "The Latin Bass Book" by Oscar Stagnaro and "The Essential Jaco Pastorius" by Jaco Pastorius.

That says it all. For guitar for children , none can top "Alfred's Children Guitar book For Classical guitar I love the Charles Duncan's books "A modern approach to classical guitar" plus the repertoire books which are a gem and easy to approach.

The advantage of Ramirez's book is that it is relatively brief but nonetheless thorough. Read More
