A complete bass guitar course for absolute beginners with Phil Williams. This easy-to-follow tutorial is ideal if you've just bought your first bass guitar, or if there's been a guitar sitting around somewherejust waiting to be strummed. This DVD will take you from novice level thorough to intermediate level. Yet it requires no prior knowledge at all; it truly is for someone starting from the beginning. Slowly but surely, the DVD guides you through all the things that a beginner needs to know and points out what can go wrong.

Nothing too demanding, just enough to help you understand what you're doing and why. You'll soon be playing scales, picking out melodies and, hopefully, writing some songs of your own!
