The Bassist's Book of Scales and Arpeggios | Digital eBook
Despite its rapid evolution, the bass guitar’s technique remains relatively young—and its future development is still unfolding. However, one thing has remained clear: there is a gap in the published pedagogy for electric bassists; a comprehensive, standardized manual for learning the instrument.
And trust me when I say that no matter where you are on your journey, these technical components are essential for your growth as a player. From simply knowing all the notes on the fretboard in a chromatic scale, to the fundamental shapes of traditional major and minor scales, to the incredible and often overlooked sounds of the Ukrainian Dorian or Double Harmonic Major—anything in Western music can be unlocked with the simple magic of scales and arpeggios.
With that, I invite you to dive in, explore, and let this book guide you toward your own mastery of the electric bass.
