Ready to start playing?

Okay. So your Really Useful Bass Acoustic Guitar Bundle just arrived in the post. You can’t wait to get started. You hang your posters up on the wall and then...what next? 

Whatever your musical goal is, we’ve got you covered.

The Really Useful Bass Acoustic Guitar Bundle helps guitarists and bass guitarists to commit chords and scales to muscle memory. It will teach you the best fingerings for each scale, so that you learn the easiest way to play them. With this bundle, there’s no need for apps – so you can stay in the zone as you play.

Pick one scale each day and practise it for 15 minutes. Work through the major scales first, and then move on to the minor scales. Rinse and repeat until you can play every scale by heart! You’ll notice significant improvement after you’ve practised each scale five times over - which would take approximately four months if you’re working on one scale per day.  

If you’re a producer, you can use The Really Useful Bass Acoustic Guitar Bundle to find which scale you’re playing in and to identify the best chords to jam with. It will teach you which notes fit together, so that you can become a more intuitive songwriter. Over time you’ll start to absorb the music theory behind your songs by osmosis.

Choose a chord set and play all 7 chords in sequence. Once you can do that with ease, start playing the chords in a random order. This will help you to come up with your own unique progression. You can then find the matching scale and use the 7 notes in the scale to write a melody over the top of your chord progression. Try to do this for a different chord set every day to improve your playing skills and consistently create new music!
