I loved zen guitar. Totally what I needed when I first started making music. I remember a page where the author encouraged sending him an email. Made me sad to find out he died when I was too young to read the book. I sent an email anyway and ended up getting a nice response from his wife about a year later!

How does that John Lennon book compare to other publications analysing the music theory of Beatles songs? Such as "The Songwriting Secrets of The Beatles" by Dominic Pedler (a really thorough illustration of loads of music theory concepts from beginner primer up), "The Beatles as Musicians" by Walter Everett (far more advanced!), and Pollack's free online "Notes on..." series (a collected series of Usenet posts analysing every Beatles song - and also one of the main resources I still use for learning the songs' chords).

Oh man, my experience with guitar teachers has been awful. My tastes in music are wide, but when it comes to how I'd like to play there are only a few names that come to my mind and those are David Gilmour, John Mayer, Jack White, Morello and Edge... But try to explain that to the guy with wearing a Satriani shirt and an white Ibanez RG. That guy gave me a "poor idiot" kind of look and then asked me "do you settle for that?". That's why in almost 20 years I've never had a serious guitar teacher and I have taught myself through practice, even though I'm not really aware of theory :(
@jadeboyd62065 жыл бұрын
Im about to type a lot but stick with me. There are a lot of KZbin resources for theory, and online in general. If you get the fundamentals of how chords are constructed from scales. And what notes belong in certain chords. Then some extentsions. Common chord progressions. You can get a pretty good idea of what's going on in a song to at least chisle away at it. Especially once you figure out the key of a song, or what part of the song is in a said key. I've been playing for about 2 years. I've been focusing a lot on ear training. I recommend once you do get those things down to some understanding. Get on Spotify. And just listen to one person in particular. Especially if they're also a singer songwriter. They tend to use the same keys a lot. John Mayer for example I've come to find out usually sticks to C major G maj, D Maj, A Major, E major. And their relative minors respectably. (Check out the circle of 5ths because those keys follow exactly that) From some songs I've picked out. Check out. Who did you think I was? By John Mayer. It's in A major. And switches to F# minor. At parts (It's relative minor. 6th note of the scale.) He'll even descend the F# minor scale before going back to the main riff.

Hal Leonard Bass Method Books 1-3 is pretty good Also Bass Aerobics is a good 'fitness' book for bass If you're pursuing some more technique books, check out the website Bassline Publishing. They have many books that you can check out online to purchase and they're really self-explanatory for what they'll teach. Also they make two Giants of Bass which is really worth checking out if you want to get into the styles of different bassists from the 60s to the 90s - I own these books and can vouch for it.
@RealKingChief5 жыл бұрын
Also, I really recommend learning how to do walking bass. You may not like the style but it can really help your playing if you do learn it. Chris Fitzgerald's Walking Bassline pdf is really good and can be found online free for download.
