Online course for intermediate players

[zachstar876]

Hi!
I've been wanting to sign up for an online course, but i'm already way past the begginer stage. Alot of courses are for begginers.
So i'm wondering, what are the well reguarded online courses for intermediate players.
I'm looking for a course that i could follow everyday

Thanks!

I find "Intermediate" to be rather subjective. What are you looking for? There is a huge spectrum. Sight reading? Theory? Jazz? Improv? SBL has different layers across many categories, and I think they offer a free trial - or at least a 30 day money back guarantee. I would narrow it down and do some googling... try to reach out to a few places and see what they have to offer. If they're serious they will get back to you.

I'm looking to improve every area of my playing, but learning theory, improvisation, bassline composition are my priority. I want to learn in many genres, mainly rock, blues, funk, jazz
SBL might be a good pick, thanks

Why stick to just one school or place? If you can read music, you can self-guide into where you want to go. Google it, or look on youtube, and you might be surprised what you can find.

Do you like Steely Dan? It's kinda jazzy funky, mainly rock, and what I would consider Intermediate. It's not super hard but it's beyond beginner. For example:



this one's a little harder


Pick an artist or song you like, and search away

Talkingbass also offers courses beyond beginner level. I would advice on watching some videos on yt and see how you get along with different people's style but that wouldn't do justice to SBL. I can barely stand them but lessons are different. More focused, less flashy and salespitchy for lack of a better term.

I would put in 1 solid year of learning to read music. Put in 30-60 minutes a day. If you are consistent you will become able to read well enough to practice out of many method books, while knowing your neck a good percent better. Then the world is wide open.

Pickup Music has a good pathway for intermediate and beyond. Once a week you can submit your performance of one of the capstone exercises for feedback from an instructor, which gives it a little more weight than a purely self-directed online learning solution.

I'm pretty happy with it, having hopped on last summer. I'd say it's worth giving the free trial a run.

Oh and you don't get inundated with annoying emails, unlike (S)ome (B)ass (L)essons.

Roll the dice. Most of these courses offer money back guarantees. And don’t forget this stuff takes time.
