Years ago, I bought a 6-string from Carvin and a video about six stringers came with it.

I can't find the video on their website, maybe if you called them they could steer you in the right direction.

If you are really talented go for John Myung's Progressive Bass Concepts.

If you are dedicated you will learn all the patterns, it's just so boring at first but it will pay off later.

Thanks Naminator01
I found some samples on You Tube. I really liked it. I think I will order. I tried to find it on DVD and looks like its not available on DVD. VHS will be OK. Its not really my style of music but I am beginning to become a John Myung fan.

Thanks

I would suggest listening to "Scarred", "Lifting Shadows Off A dream" and of course Solar Groove.
