'bassguitarsecrets'

Sign in to disble this ad
I'm sure a lot of you have seen this site, it claims to be the be-all end-all to bass guitar education, there is no way that a guide as good as that would go on about how good it is so much and it just comes off as being a complete scam. It seems they are holding a sale (http://www.bassguitarsecrets.com/sec.../pdaysale.html) and selling the course which is 'apparently' worth hundreds of dollars for $25, I'm sooo tempted to spend the £12.50 to see what this guy thinks is so great about his method.

Anyone else seen this? Anyone actually bought it? I'm past the stage in my musical education to use a guide like this even if it was as good as it describes, but the sheer amount of self compliments this guy gives himself just really get my curiosity going.

I can almost garantee thats how he gets the money out of people..the curiosity!

I would save your £12.50 and wait for someone else to chime in that has 'fallen' for this scam.

Though the site is kind of cheesy sounding, I actually bought it about a year ago. It has some pretty cool features. Metronome, Jam Box (plays music and shows what chords are coming up before the change so you can jam along), has another section where you can create different drum rhythms. I have been playing for about 30 years and I have to tell you, I thought it was worth the $25 IMHO.
