      Hey there thanks for the kind words but it’s not a Fender… It’s a Jazz styled bass but the brand is “Pensa”. Peace.

    I am one of those people you talked about that don’t have a lot of time and who “Just Want To Play NOW”.. I am definitely going to sit down and pick these patterns apart..
    Thanks again..

    Thanks for the the great lesson. I was getting bored with the same old mechanical bass lines. You’ve given me a lot of motivation to try some new stuff. Thank you very much.

    Hi Alex,

    You’ve got to be one of the most highly intelligent gifted teachers I have ever come across. You seem to have this knack of being able to explain musical process and describe the concepts behind them, demystifying crucial points that many bass players just leave and resign to a word such as ‘talent’ who more often than not, endlessly labour away at remaining to a level of meritocracy because of this lack of insight (which is finally, the truth behind the truth, behind the truth).

    As soon as I finish my work studies and band material I will by buying the DVD’s and all what I can.

    I have seen Roy Vogt videos and DVD’s which is good BUT no one goes deeper in a methodical, logical way than Alex, at least to my knowledge.

    Allah/God has sent someone very special to the bass playing world, Revolutionary teaching indeed, and end of.

    Hey Alex,
    I always enjoy your sessions and the lessons – sorry I had to drop the monthly as it was really improving my playing and fretboard knowledge. I’ll be back when ties are better. Keep up the great work. tj

    Awesome!!!

    You have a following out here that would love to learn how to play gospel in our churches. Tabs on some of the lastest gospel songs would be fantastic and help us who don’t have a lot of time and quicker to get going and helping our churches who need bass players.

    There is no one out there that is really meeting the needs of these wanna be gospel players.
    You seem to have a gospel background and you are the man that can do it for us.

    I know there are cats out there who would be willing to pay for it.

    Thanks Alex and I hope you help us out.

    Great stuff. Thanks, Alex. Ya we all have real jobs and kids and many other things that take away from getting the knowledge of bass theory. This is a quick learner method for sure. I’m on it!

    Thanks Alex. I’ve been playing bass for 4 years (already play piano and guitar) so I’m kind of a 65 yr. old rookie (I play bass in a 10 piece rock band).I’m one of those with not much time, so I really appreciate your nuggets.
