The biggest thing I did to improve my bass playing was join SBL
Randy from Norwalk, OH

Has “more information” really helped you play better bass?

You might think you need to learn about theory, or jazz, or learn that cool slap bass lick you’ve heard someone play, and if you could only find more information then you’d be happy.

But what if I told you that’s wrong?

After all, has bouncing from YouTube video to Instagram video, chasing the next “shiny object” really helped?

What if I told you what you need isn’t more information…

It’s the right information at the right time
