Bass Guitarist's Guide to Reading Music: Advanced Level
Description
This is the third and final book in a series that will teach you everything you need to know in order to be able to successfully read music on the bass guitar. Building on the topics covered in the first two books, this volume covers complex semiquaver rhythms, reading on a 5-string bass, reading treble clef, understanding odd time signatures and cut common time, and more advanced key signatures. The final part of the book contains ten 'real world' play-along tracks recorded with a full band. All audio files are available to download from the FREE Stuff! section of the publisher's website.
