Your First Bass Guitar Lesson!

This is a traditional first bass guitar lesson that I give to all my students. The idea is to get you starting playing and having fun right away. I discuss the parts of the bass guitar, I’ll show a few finger exercises and talk about some great accessories to get started and your practice regimen. 

Also, if you don't have a bass you can still do this lesson with a guitar! Just use the 4 stings on the top. Leave the 2 skinny strings at the bottom alone.
