This is the first in a series of three lessons from my new online course Contemporary Techniques For Bass Guitar. This lesson is an excerpt
from my new book/DVD, Tapestry, which is scheduled for release in September.
The song illustrated here is called Ebenella and was written by a good friend of mine, Rob Gourlay. These techniques are the same as those used
by Marcus Miller, Victor Wooten, Michael Manring, and several other great bassists. This song helped me develop strength and accuracy
when I learned it, and I hope it does the same for you now.
In this lesson, Ebenella is broken down into individual techniques and slowed down so you can practice along. At first it may seem that the
different parts dont have anything to do with the finished song but they are very important if you want to learn without struggling. If you feel like
skipping parts, try to suppress that urge because if you dont have these parts down well, you might have trouble keeping up as the lesson
progresses.

Well, you have finished this lesson. Now its time to think about some more. Check out Stinnett Music, Bass Workout, my site, and YouTube for
more lessons.
In the fall Stinnett Music Nonpareil, will be releasing the course called Contemporary Techniques for Bass Guitar, which will cover all the basics of
tapping, slapping, double thumping, and several other modern bass styles.

Grant mate you are very talented, thank you for sharing. Ebenella is addictive to learn. Do you plan to release tabs or video

not my flavor, but very impressive none the less. I should have started trying to tap years ago but ive been working on it lately.
its harder my acoustic than it is on the electric plugged in. if I kick on the overdrive its even easier. I still suck at it though. heres a
link to one of my old bands songs. the bass kinda got lost when everything else came in & I intentionally went effect crazy, but it
kinda gives an idea of my style. I wrote this one on the bass completely & then everyone else put their flavor on it. let me know
what you think http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rNuI9rkHgM.
