This Ron Carter lesson book is unique in so many ways:
1. It very simply explains the Ron Carter method of writing bass lines, the same method he created 60 years ago, and the same method he uses today.
2. This advanced guide isn't just for advanced bass players. It was actually written for music teachers of young bassists, who are not a bassists themselves.
3. Many of the pages are cut in half and function like a Dutch Door. The top half is the first chorus and the bottom half the second. You can flip the top and bottom halves of the pages back and forth, which shows you all the possibilities of note choices and combinations you can choose. It's easier than you think.
4. There are QR codes on each of the page halves with Mr. Carter playing the bass lines so you know what you are striving for. And other QR codes of the recorded tunes that show you what your own bass lines could someday sound like.
And, as always, Mr. Carter is available to answer any questions teachers may have, through this website or on facebook @roncartermusic.
