“Jason has put together a great short simple guidebook to get up and in the bass world. I remember my first Mel Bay book way back when, and this book sticks in my mind like that one. I love the rhythmic examples and how once you figure out they are rhythms you’ve heard before on songs, it clicks into your brain and you can see them a mile away on a

I love the rhythmic examples and how once you figure out they are rhythms you’ve heard before on songs, it clicks into your brain and you can see them a mile away on a chart. Great job Jason, let’s get a coffee!” - Matt Bissonette (Elton John)

“It has been my pleasure to get to know, and work with Jason over the years. I am a big fan of his playing and his educational content. Here is a perfect resource to help bass players learn to read and understand rhythmic notation, from whole notes to 16th notes. Some of my students play very well, but don't have a foundation in reading notes or rhythm. This book will be invaluable to them!" - Stuart Hamm (Solo Artist, Joe Satriani)

"Learning to read rhythms and play them accurately is an essential skill for bassists. Jason has created a straight-forward, easy to use resource that will send you well on your way to mastery. I highly recommend it!" - Michael Manring (Solo Artist)

Jason Raso’s Soloing on Electric Bass: A Chord Tone Approach provides the next step following his first book for Mel Bay Publications, Improvising on Electric Bass. The primary focus of this second book is to help you develop a more melodic approach to solo bass playing. The author suggests avoiding root notes, concentrating instead on chord tones of a 3rd, 5th, and 7th as fertile ground to begin revising your approach to more creative soloing. Following a series of standard notation exercises exploring intervals and goal notes in all keys, Jason presents a dozen original solo etudes in notation and tablature.
