A Must Have For Every Bass Player!
This book can be used as a learning, reference or practice tool to explore new scales and shapes to help improve your songwriting, improvisational skills and practice routine.
Going from the simplest scales, such as the Minor Pentatonic scale, through to the more complex, such as Harmonic Minor and Melodic Minor. This book can be used simply as a reference point for shapes to play for certain scales/modes, or to further develop your knowledge and practice routines to become the ultimate bass player! There are lots of practice examples with tabs. You can download the audio for free on my website (link will be in the book).
Put together by musician Karl Golden, who has been playing guitar professionally for over 10 years and is now a big influencer in the YouTuber community, with well over 48 million views on his content.

Book Updates
I have taken on board all of the feedback and updated the book with the following:
No longer any practice diary or blank tablature at the back of the book. You can still download these for free on my website as PDF files to print off to aid with your practice.
Added valuable scale and mode information such as scale diagrams on one string, table of formulas in order of scale size and more information about the concepts used in this book.
Updated spine with book information so can be easily read on a bookshelf.
Downloadable or streamable video files for all exercises.
