Where’s the Fretboard Formula?…

I’ll keep this short… I know there’s one BIG question on everyone’s mind right now…

“Alex, where’s The Fretboard Formula?”
…Folks are chomping at the bit to get their hands on my latest project (tons of preorder requests!) and I’m super thankful for all your understanding, support, kind words and patience despite the fact that I had to delay the original August 27 launch day.

Well as I’m typing this we have one more hold up as I am wanting to;

1. Produce more copies of the course to match the demand we’re anticipating and,

2. Give everyone an opportunity to get several little trailer ’sneak peeks’ of the course as we get set to go.

I hate having to ask you guys to wait any longer but all I can say is that;

1. You guys ROCK. You really are a great bunch! (But then again we are BASS PLAYERS!! :-) and

2. We’re getting close ;-)

Keep your eyes on this blog… This is the hot-spot for info. It’s getting to be crunch time and things are beginning to heat up…

More samples on the way and some great surprises too!

- Alex

haha hi Dave, i know you guys are excited about getting the details… I haven’t said the price yet because the truth is I haven’t 100% decided yet… part of the delay is that we’ve had to change duplication companies at the last minute :-( and it’s now a complex algorithm of how many we think we’ll sell on launch day and stuff to haggle best price. I’ll be posting a full site soon with all the details.full course breakdown and everything.

stay cool bro, and keep it tight over there in the UK… ;-)

Alex

Hi Alex - I have used the Bass Guitar Secrets course for the last couple years. It has helped me progress from beginner stage to an advanced intermediate in a very short time. I refer back to it often for exercises and also advice when I am trying to come up with basslines for new songs. I am in 3 different bands right now - playing both originals and covers.

I am looking forward to the Fretboard course because I have found the Secrets course to be a great value, and I expect even more from the new one.

The thing about these courses is that there is a tremendous amount of useful information that I can refer back to whenever I have time. I have had several bass teachers in the last few years, and there are always the scheduling hassles - trying to get times when we are both available - then there is the cost - I usually pay $40 an hour plus gas to get there or pay extra for them to come to me. If I am later trying to do something they taugth me and it doesn’t make sense or I don’t get it - I have to wait until the next session and take up a lot of that time to review. Plus if there are interruptions - phone calls on their cell phone - or family issues they have to sort out -or their equpment problems, I still have to pay for that time. Not sure what the cost is going to be of the Fretboard course, but I’m sure it’s very reasonable compared to $160 a month, plus if I want to review something at 10PM it’s all right there.

Also, thenks for being available by email to answer my questions. I know you have a lot of students, but I’ve always received a response pretty quickly.

I have great expectations that this course will take me to an advanced level in a short period of time, and also give me a lot more options for designing basslines and improvising.

I hope I win, but even if I don’t I will be getting the course. Feel free to use any parts of this separately, or the whole thing. Thanks.
