Bass Guitar Lessons – Funky Chops

Bass guitar lessons available on the Internet are growing in popularity for a number of reasons:

• there may not be a suitable teacher in your area;
• your schedule may make it difficult to make appointments at a set time;
• private tuition can be very expensive.

Consequently, there are a growing number of instructional videos, CDs, and books now available on the Internet. Unfortunately, these products are not all created equal and while some are great, others are not worth bothering with.

One such product that is worth mentioning is Funky Chops bass guitar lessons. I came across this course recently and was impressed. This is a slap bass instruction course created by Jim Lee. Jim’s courses have been available for some time now and he has many satisfied customers. The course materials include video and audio instruction designed to be fun, informative, and to get you playing slap bass quickly.

Jim’s instructional style is informal and laid back. You will learn by watching and listening. This method will train your ears as well as your hands. Having a good “ear” is vital for a musician. Theory is important, but good ear training is essential.

You will learn 101 different riffs. Each one comes in 3 speeds so you will play along slowly at first and progress to the medium and fast speeds at your own pace. Learning slap bass will help you discover how much fun playing the bass guitar can be.

This course does not cover any theory at all, so a little knowledge will be required. As slap bass is an intermediate to advanced technique it may be a little too advanced for complete newbies. However, if you have been playing for a little while and are ready to try something different, Funky Chops is definitely worth a look.

So if you would like to learn to play slap bass, why not take a look at Funky Chops. As far as online bass guitar lessons go, it is reasonably priced and comes with 60-day money back guarantee if you are not satisfied. You can find out more by clicking on this link.
