I realize the title is misleading-- "Step One", but the previous reviewer failed to notice that the same author and publisher have a book called "Step One: Play Beginning Bass" or something like that. This is "Step One: Play Bass SCALES." This is a GREAT book, but it is specifically geared towards understanding scales, and how they relate to bass playing. I actually wish they had extended it to include modes of jazz melodic minor, and some Eastern scales, but for the price, this book can't be beat!
