Review: Yes It's Worth It - You'll likely buy it more than once - Excellent resource - my Bass teacher used it as our primary resource.
Review: Challenging bass studies - I bought this book for my daughter. The exercises are good, and very appropriate for developing jazz chops, but they're not beginner material. You need to know your way around the fingerboard before you'll make good use of this book.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Yes It's Worth It - You'll likely buy it more than once
*by L***S on July 7, 2025*

Excellent resource - my Bass teacher used it as our primary resource.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Challenging bass studies
*by F***Y on April 26, 2020*

I bought this book for my daughter. The exercises are good, and very appropriate for developing jazz chops, but they're not beginner material. You need to know your way around the fingerboard before you'll make good use of this book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ray Brown's Bass Method
*by B***L on November 24, 2009*

This book is the quintessential book for the developing double bassplayer since the Simandl method. Full of exercises, Etudes and fingering ideas this book is fantastic for developing the skills to negotiate the fingerboard. Don't expect to come out of this book as the next Ray Brown but certainly expect to become a more accomplished bass technician. Musicality comes from years of transcribing, playing and making mistakes. That said, none of the above can truly be executed unless you can master the rudimentary technical side of bass playing and this book as a brilliant start.
