First i want you to know that iŽm from Finland. This means that i donŽt know how to write English very well but iŽll give it a try anyway.

Here it goes...

!! I recomment that you use electric sound on this lesson. If you use other sound options you might not hear bass line at all on pages 5-7. These pages includes drum tracks. Drums are a little too loud!!

This is a good lesson for beginners to learn how to tell your fingers where to go. Use all your left hand fingers(no thumb). This is also very good lesson for right hand fingers. Every time you play a note, use a different finger on both hands. Play this as slow as you need to get a clean sound. Then play it faster and play it until you get a clean sound.
You can play this from any fret that you like but playing it from first fret is most usefull. It strenghends and stretches your fingers.
I suggest that you play this line 5-10 minutes/day, maybe twice a day, if you think thatŽs nessessary. Not any more or youŽll get frustrated. Trust me on this.
On the next page youŽll learn basic playing technique.
