Nope haven't tried them.

The website seems to say pretty much... I'm not sure similar stuff can't be found for free though....

There's a post on these board, not sure the link, that has jams for bass to play over and they're great. Search for "free bass jam tracks" or something along those lines to find it. It's very helpful. You should be able to hear when you're way off.

I haven't seen them, but the one with the walking bass/triplet exercise sounds very interesting.

Personally I'm not a huge fan of "distance" (i.e. audio/video, one-way, no direct or real-time interaction) learning, but the content looks to be very well presented. Plus, Jeff Andrews is an amazing bassist. Obviously that doesn't mean he's an amazing teacher, but he's what I and a number of my cronies call a bassist's bass player. Groove, swing, soul, heart...they're all in there right next to some incredible chops and knowledge of the language of music.

I like him a lot....I like especially his tone, very middle-rangy and clear...he palys always in a very musical way and he's a terrific soloist!!
