John Patitucci school or Jo Hubbard ?

[despised_icon]

If I could choose one of the 1 year membership witch one is the better ? I want something complete that would cover all the thing like a college !

Here what I think about each !

Joe Hubbard : Cover all the advance jazz concept like superimposed, and tritone substitution

But its really expensive starting at more than 300 $ ( just for the lesson loundge) and up to
640 $ for 2 years.

John Patitucci: Very less expensive 180 $ us

But it doesn't look like to cover all of the jazz concept for example the chromatic concept
on a walking bass. There is advance and intermediary section but nothing about specific
jazz concept like cadence, secondary dominant or V to V etc

So my question is I need comment about people that have subscribe to one or the other: silver or one year! All the price is 30% up for me because us dollar is so bad for me ! Thank for coment its my first post here !

Really depends on your current level. If you have some solid grasp of the music theory, Jo is the way to go, BUT - you want to take the Bassment portion, not the lesson lounge, judging by your post. Jo is all business and his material will demand plenty of practice. It is based on seventh chords, so you need to be comfortable with diatonic harmony and triads already. His teaching methodology is brilliant and there will be lot of breakthroughs and revelations along the way...if you take that avenue.

Patitucci's course might have the advantage of the curriculum being available in its entirety at once, unlike Hubbard's delivering weekly lessons. On the other hand, it could be a distraction... However, the included possibility of submitting your performance and getting his feedback is a big plus. If you are still shaky about applied music theory, you should opt for this one, and then maybe taking Hubbard's approach as a post-graduate study of sorts.

Thank for your answer ! How is the contain of Patucci is ? Is the walking bass lesson are complet (like the art of walking bass of Magnusson) or just a memorized cell pattern to apply? Joe Hubbard look really advance and not a lot of online lesson have concept like substitute or superimposed but the price is still so way expensive in $ canadien the gold plan is maybe 550 $ ! Any of you know has try the J.Patitucci online school ?

It,S a no-brainer: GO with John not Jo

 

[GastonD]

Well, you do have the option of monthly membership, so that way you can have a taste of each before you decide...

Well I didn"t mention any arguments because there no need to but.....

Just knowing everything that he played on AND with who is enough for me to go with John (something I wish I would have the time and courage to do myself one day). Plus, I have a very poorly transcription book by JH that I would be ashamed to have publish myself. Ok, enough said

Hi Despised_Icon

Just thought I'd chime in on if I may. I do offer a year's discount for £325 ($545 CAD approx) w,hich will give you access for the Lesson Lounge, The Bassment and the Feedback Forum. You would receive 48 weekly lessons, along with a bonus lesson from the Bassment Course for one year. You would also get access to The Lesson Lounge that has 50 videos at the moment and is growing steadily- these are slightly different from the Bassment Course which is highly structured. The Lesson Lounge is presented like mini-master classes. So straight away you would receive 99 videos for the year - that includes PDF worksheets and backing tracks - for £325. If you studied with me via Skype, I charge £450 for 12-lessons. Just do the math and you will see the value you are getting.

As an aside, I'd like to respond to Groove Master's comment which I assume he is directing at Basss Lines, which I wrote when I was 23 years old. Admittedly, there were mistakes made, but I was young and only starting playing when I was 18. I'd like to think that I've improved since then and at 59 years old and after playing with people like Dave Garabaldi, George Whitty, Tom Bretchlein, Frank Gambale, Patches Stewart, Walt Folwer, Richie Cole, Ray Gomez, Peter John Vettese and countless more world-class musicians, that most people would give their left nut to play with, I think I've earned a pretty good reputation for knowing what I'm talking about.

By all means, check out what John is doing as well on Artist Works. John is a good friend and a great musician and has always endorsed my methodology. And- oh, the last thing is my name is spelled JOE. If you need more info, shoot me an email: [email protected]

Warmly

I certainly am completely amazed by Joe's work in those courses. Some of the lessons are so deep you'll certainly need more than a week to get all you can out of them. As the matter of fact, I can say with certainty that his lessons in the Bassment section will give you a couple of years of steady and dedicated work.
