Hi Todd
First I'd like to say that your playing is frighteningly wonderful, great stuff. I would like to know if you had a sight reading method book you would reccomend, that takes a student from beginner to advanced

Thanks in advance

Hey BassFace,

I highly recommend "Reading In Bass Clef" by Jim Stinnett. I give it 2 HUGE thumbs up!!

Go to http://www.jimstinnett.com/books.html and order it the first chance you get. Tell Jim I sent you OK?? Cool....

Get though that one first then we'll take it from there....

Have fun and play slow....
