The Korena take
The string bass book from String Basics Book 1. For a beginning upright bass student in a school orchestra program.
Strong match
Who this is for
- First-year string bass students in school orchestra
- Private lessons where the teacher assigns String Basics
- Replacing a lost book so the student stays on the class page
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Students past first-year material — this starts from the beginning
- Violin, viola, or cello players; those are separate books

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is this for upright bass or electric bass?
Upright — string bass. It is written for the orchestral instrument with bow and left-hand positions, not for bass guitar.
02Which level should a first-year student get?
Book 1, level 1. That is this edition. Book 2 continues after the first year of material.
03Will this match my child's class?
If the class uses String Basics, yes. Confirm the series name with the director, since method books are not interchangeable.
04What else do we need to start?
A correctly sized bass, a bow, rosin, and a music stand. The book is instruction only.
