  • Solid, organized practice plan

Here's what others are saying about "The Walking Bass Line Module System":

While it's ideal for giving beginning and intermediate players a thorough grounding in one of the most fundamental concepts in bass playing, it also offers advanced bassists a chance to expand their skills by offering a new way of looking at constructing bass lines. It's a great work out and I recommend it to anyone who wants to master walking bass!" -- Michael Manring

One of the finest electric bass educators on the planet. Todd's DVDs are indispensable viewing for any bassist wanting to play jazz. -- Steve Lawson

Simply - it's excellent. While lots of instructional videos spew something, show one example, and scurry off to the next topic randomly, TJ lays it out methodically, one piece at a time. Once the concepts are explained, you get treated to many different small pieces to internalize. The super organized, one piece at a time approach made me wish I lived in TJ's region so that I could take private lessons with him. -- Frank

I have been struggling with my walking for a long time now. After watching this DVD I have already improved A LOT! The 'module' idea makes perfect sense to me. I have bought several instructional books on walking theory and all I got was discouraged. It always seemed so complicated. Todd presents his system clearly and in a way that even beginners can start walking IMMEDIATELY!

Yes, it's that easy. Todd's system is that good...You will be glad after taking my advice and getting this video. -- Joe
