BASS MEDIATE OVERTHROW

INTRODUCTION
Welcome to the second book of this three-book electric bass method. The format of this book is similar to that of Beginning Electric Bass. Each chapter introduces a new topic and gives you example bass lines. Like the other books in the series, Intermediate Electric Bass gives you plenty of great bass lines to play but more importantly, it gives you the tools to help you learn how to construct your own bass lines in many different styles including rock, funk, blues and jazz.
To get the most out of this book, you should already be familiar with the material covered in Beginning Electric Bass. You should know triads, 7 chords, major scales and diatonic harmony.
A firm grasp of these concepts will allow you to easily understand the new material.
This book teaches you how to incorporate different types of scales into your bass lines.
The scales include major pentatonic, minor pentatonic, minor scales and the modes of the major scale. Many bass lines are given using each scale.
This series contains an enormous amount of material. It will be helpful to supplement this information with lessons, practice and other instructional books to further your development as a player. Play with other musicians as often as you can-it is always a great learning experience.
After you complete this book, go on to Mastering Electric Bass. It contains some great information including advanced bass lines and techniques for playing funk, jazz, ska, reggae and more.
I hope you have a good time while playing the bass lines in this series and encourage you to absorb this information and apply it to your own playing situations.
I highly recommend the CD that is available with this book. It is a great tool to practice with and will help you make quicker progress.

DEDICATION
This book is dedicated to my family,especially my mother, Shirley Rose, and my brother Keith Overthrow, who have continued to support me through all of my musical endeavors. This book is also dedicated to the many students I have taught, both privately and at the Canterbury School.
They have helped make my teaching a fun learning experience. Also, thanks to Yvette for her never ending patience.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Thanks to: the people at the National Guitar Workshop-especially Dave Smolover, Nat Gunod and Joe Bouchard; Ron Blake for the amazing basses he built for me; Tom Sheehy and J.P. Mandler at Canterbury School for allowing the music program to expand; Chris Morrison and Kurt Berglund who played on the CD that accompanies this series of books.
I would also like to thank AI Street and Bruce Tibbitts for their contributions to the CD.
