Strong match

Who this is for

  • Beginning double bass students moving past open-string exercises
  • Teachers needing graded repertoire for weekly lesson assignments
  • Adult returners rebuilding reading and left-hand position work

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Advanced players wanting concert repertoire or orchestral excerpts
  • Electric bass guitar players — this is upright, different clef and technique
  • Anyone wanting audio tracks or video demonstration

  3. 03Check with your teacher that this matches your method series

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Is this for upright bass or bass guitar?

Upright double bass. The fingerings, positions and bowing notation are specific to the acoustic instrument and will not transfer directly to electric bass.

02Do I need a teacher to use it?

It works best alongside lessons. It is a repertoire collection rather than a step-by-step method, so it assumes basic technique is already in place.

03Does it come with a CD or downloads?

It is a printed music book. Plan on playing from the page without accompaniment tracks.

04How many volumes are there?

This is Volume One of a series. Additional volumes continue the progression and are ordered separately.
