Lessons will be structured as follows: Questions and answers will be limited to the time of the lesson (so prepare your list). Bobby will help assess where you're at and give feedback on what he thinks you need to work on after watching you play. Whereas lessons and feedback may be tailored to each student, there will not be any written materials, methods, or exercises prepared in advance. These may be offered by Bobby as you progress but will depend on each student's needs. Bobby will be happy to assess the following: Sound/Tone, Gear/Strings, Time/Feel, Groove, Technique, Style (pick, finger, thumb), and Soloing.

 

Meanwhile, you'll be happy to know that for only $20.00 (shipping included) you can buy Bobby's first instructional DVD,Bass Lessons in Tone Vol I "The Pick" which was released in January 2010. This DVD examines Bobby's signature use of the pick.
