MY FIRST BASS BOOK - EBOOK/PDF VERSION
		My First Bass Book is a collection of 61 children's classics and family favorites arranged for the Bass guitar. Each title is arranged and presented on facing pages, the left-hand page with just the melody in notation and tab, the right-hand page with melody, accompaniment and the tab to the accompaniment. This gives only a single-part to work on for the page with the melody and a complete, two-part arrangement for the facing page. This book was written primarily as a collection of great duets that can be shared between teacher and student, but can also be a great tool for developing your improvisational skills as a soloist. We can promise you - if you memorize all these melodies that you probably already know how to sing and learn to play those phrases on your bass as easy as you can sing them, you will be amazed at how much your vocabulary as a soloist will improve. You might play a snippet of a melody from a children’s song as a wink and a nod to the audience, or even more likely, you might hear snippets of snippets coming out exactly as you visualized them in your head as your own individual phrases. Written in standard notation and TAB. 132 pages and 61 MP3 files.	Our Price: US$15.00 click to see more

I have stripped away all the fluff associated with scale theory and brought it into the new century with style. All examples are presented in both standard notation and fretboard diagrams.

THE REAL BOOK - VOLUME I
		The Real Books are the best-selling jazz books of all time. Since the 1970s, musicians have trusted these volumes to get them through every gig, night after night. The problem is that the books were illegally produced and distributed, without any regard to copyright law, or royalties paid to the composers who created these musical masterpieces. Hal Leonard is very proud to present the first legitimate and legal editions of these books ever produced. You won't even notice the difference, other than all the notorious errors being fixed: the covers and typeface look the same, the song list is nearly identical, and the price for our edition is even cheaper than the original! Every conscientious musician will appreciate that these books are now produced accurately and ethically, benefiting the songwriters that we owe for some of the greatest tunes of all time! Includes 400 songs: All Blues, Au Privave, Autumn Leaves, Black Orpheus, Bluesette, Body and Soul, Bright Size Life, Con Alma, Dolphin Dance, Don't Get Around Much Anymore, Easy Living, Epistrophy, Falling in Love with Love, Footprints, Four on Six, Giant Steps, Have You Met Miss Jones?, How High the Moon, I'll Remember April, Impressions, Lullaby of Birdland, Misty, My Funny Valentine, Oleo, Red Clay, Satin Doll, Sidewinder, Stella by Starlight, Take Five, There Is No Greater Love, Wave, and hundreds more! 462 pages. Written in Standard Notation (no TAB).	Our Price: US$32.50 click to see more
