    Great exercises. Really made me change how I hold the base & worked my fingers out. I do have a challenge with the independence especially with my little finger. Definitely loosening them up! Thanks….td

    Thanks so much, Alex. Other bass teachers I’ve seen on
    the Internet have taught me fingering the incorrect way,
    but seeing your video today really helped.

    I would like to learn more on my 5 String Bass Guitar. Don’t have a lot finances to spend, but a lot of heart and desire to perfect my skills. I play a lot of Gospel music at this time. I love Jazz and Gospel and some contemporary music.

      Thanks for the kind words Fred and glad you getting a handle on using the entire fretboard freely. About the basschopz course we’re actually replacing it with a new video course on building dexterity called “Essential Bass Rudiments”… don’t have a page up for that yet but if you want info on it you can email support @ bassguitartips.com (remove the spaces)

    I let my learning stall and die completely. Haven’t touched my bass in quite a while. I think this set of videos is sparking an interest in picking it up and plugging it in again.

    Thanks.

    Excellent. Much much appreciated. Been doing the first excercise incorrectly for five years and not one out of three teachers (in person) noticed or commented. Second excercise only learned now. How does a video where the teacher can’t see you hit home better than a live person sitting there? Man…. Thanks, Alex, this is seriously life-changing practice-changing information.

    I really like the exercise technic you have shown on your video. I’m an intermediate bass player and I needed some finger placing exercise. That was the perfect video and instructions I needed for my playing. Thanks for the video. You are blessing to us musician that strive to be better.

    It still amazes me how you can break these lessons down to the simplest degree!!! I’m still making up for a whole lot of lost time, but I can see that with your insights I’ll get there sooner than later!! Thanks you, just doesn’t seem to cover it!!!
