That string pedagogy notebook is really useful. Great resource.
Hi Stan: Thank you for your feedback. I am glad that you have found the resources useful. We have Mr Michael Hopkin to thank. :)
Cool post! I'll be sure to point readers to it.
It's always nice to see a blog about music and musical instruments! I play the piano, guitar and the clarinet, but never had any experience with bass.
And may i just say that I totally love your site's layout! The crispness of the pics compliment the background very well! And I kid you not! :)
