Sign in to disble this ad
Hey guys, just discovered a new Stu Hamm instructional course over on TrueFire.com for bass guitar. Just wondering what you think of it - http://bit.ly/FretboardFitness - it looks pretty solid, but not sure if I'm gonna pull the trigger and buy it yet. Let me know what you think!  |

| | | | Been looking for some video lessons, currently looking at the roy vogt, though a bit expensive, this is pretty cheap thinking about this seriously.
edit:
Eh after looking at the samples I'm going to bite on the basics download So much in there that I should know and almost exactly what I'm looking for.

| | | | The bass bassics (his first video for the site) is pretty darn good and he's pretty entertaining and very easy to follow. though I can't seem to get the powertab to work with the program but of well.
I'll be pulling the trigger on the second after a month or so of this video.

Stu's a great teacher - and player.

One of these packages is less than the cost of a lesson by a hacker at a music store. Total no brainer. Plus, Stu actually knows what he's talking about.

|  | Registered User | | | | | Regardless of who the OP is and what his/her intentions are (not condoning breaking the rules), I bought the 2 videos because of this thread. I am new to bass and the first lesson so far is pretty good.
There's a program that comes with the tabs but I have not gotten it to work. They do open up in a new window of my browser so that's fine with me. The interactive display has a metronome on it and an easy menu to access the next or previous lesson.
I just started it but so far I'd give the first one a Thumbs Up. Just my .02.

...on another thread again | Ok, if this has been done in two threads, then I take back my comments. 
Anyway, IMHO, Stu's materials Are worthy of the measly bucks they are asking. Well worth those bucks.

| | | | hey guys - sorry about that, not trying to troll or spam, just trying to put in a good word for TrueFire and get your opinion on the course(s). I'll be sure to refrain from any such posts in the future and really appreciate your feedback. |
10-11-2010, 09:34 AM
| | | | I snagged it. It is pretty good thus far - lots of exercises to get your fingers moving around the fingerboard and learning patterns and getting modes stuck into your brain.
zwenkos I think works for TF (name seems familiar) - you should check out the commercial user policy and update your info to indicate you work for them.
In the spirit of all that, I run Stu's site & whatnot. |

Thanks.
