Review: This one book covers as much ground as the proven 4-5 books for bass players on the market. Now. Back to the woodshed! This is for advance beginner and above players. Say if you are Trinity Grade02 and above, OR went through Ed Friedland's Hal Leonard Bass Method Book 01 and 02 + Dummies book by Pat Pfeiffer. Or if you know your intervals, arpeggios, scales , shapes around the fretboard. Good book if you are an Autodidact. Good if you are learning alongside an exclusive, competent Bass - teacher, & not a Guitar teacher who insists you "learn basics first on Acoustic Guitar" Review: I knew my scales and modes already, but Ariane's framing in areas has made it much easier to find fills and runs across the fretboard. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Customer reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (223) | | Dimensions | 21.59 x 1.91 x 27.94 cm | | ISBN-10 | 0996727663 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0996727662 | | Item weight | 836 g | | Language | English | | Print length | 332 pages | | Publication date | 30 April 2021 | | Publisher | Capcat Music Publishing | ## Images ![The Pattern System for the Bass Player - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71-0WzQ6vmL.jpg) ![The Pattern System for the Bass Player - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81BAOBtLz5S.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by H***N on 4 August 2021* This one book covers as much ground as the proven 4-5 books for bass players on the market.

I have seen numerous promises for "play in 6 weeks", etc - this is not it! This book will lead you step by step into embedding the bass playing into your mind and consciousness, you muscles and inner strings. It progresses slowly and allows you to spend as much time as needed (and that you can afford training) in each step. It doesn't just tell you to "go practice" - it defines the pre-requisites you need to achieve before moving on, it gives you training recipes of exactly what to train on and until when, as well as extra tips to help you get around when you think you're stuck or to help you overcome issues that are common to many players. The book itself is very self-explanatory and can be used as a sole reference to go through the program (assuming you have the need knowledge to start this program). It has many attached videos but I have found that they are mostly unnecessary, except in cases I wasn't sure exactly on how fingers move (though this is mostly mentioned in the text itself). The online group lessons offered are very cool and helpful, but definitely not mandatory and can be fun and contributing to those who learn better when in a "class" and need to be forced into a schedule otherwise the don't train enough... I have still not completed the book, but I already feel the methodology sinking in, the familiarity with the fretboard increasing significantly and the way the pattern system starts to burn into the unconscious thinking. The book is very detailed and has a good balance between what is written down and what is left for the reader to write (yes - there are actually pages for the reader to write into during practice) and conceive (again, assuming he/she has the needed pre-requisites). The book spends a bit of time explaining rationales and not only saying "do that or that", which is also helpful for people who like to understand the "why". Overall, it's very apparent the book was very well thought through, very well structured and written without promises for "magic in 3 weeks" - it's very honest about what it would take to reach the water well but provides a detailed map of how to get there.
