The acoustic bass is a notoriously physical instrument, one that demands strength and stamina as well as a keen ear and an overall sense of musicianship. Master bassist Todd Phillips has devised a personal training workout and exercise plan that will help bassists at all levels and in all styles. You'll learn basic bass setup; proper left hand positions and right hand rhythm techniques; scales and arpeggios; how to get the best tone with the least effort; improve timing with use of a metronome; develop your ear through pitch referencing, lots more. 90 min.
