Dear Friend,
I don't
care how long you've been playing bass... 1 day or 15 years...
...I don't
care if you're an ace at reading sheet music, or you don't know the
first note on a bass staff...
...And
I especially don't care if you can't even tune a bass or if you've already
mechanically memorized every single note on the fretboard...
None
of that stuff matters!
...If right
now, you can't consistently come up with killer bass lines off
the top of your headfor most any of your favorite songs (heck
any song for that matter), I want to show you a simple 3-step, no
guess work method I developed just for people like yourself, that I'm
willing to bet will almost certainly work wonders for your playing.
...It absolutely
doesn't matter where you are now with your playing... Or what your experience
level is... Or what your age is... Or even what kind of equipment you're
playing on now.
This
system is igniting the skills of 15 and
17 year olds who are just getting started playing bass... So imagine
what it will do for you!
Trust me, when you learn it, you'll be the one writing tabs (if you
want) rather than looking them up!
...
It's a
process that took me years to perfect and get into a form I can fully
explain for someone else to copy, but now that I've boiled it down into
a logical, paint-by-numbers system (called CG-X), I'd like to
share it with you today to help squash your learning curve like a brick
hitting a bug, and get you playing performance-level bass in the
fastest time possible!
And if
performing isn't you goal... Well let's just say that you'll privately
be on average ten times better than a lot of players who are
on stages right now.
So,
will this really work for you?...
(Well,
here is a mere snapshot of the type of **REAL** emails I receive from
customers
for this revolutionary new system on a nearly daily basis!..)
...I've
been playing for about four years but already I am recommending
Bass Guitar Secrets to all the bassists I know.
The
best I've spent for a long time!
~ Ric Lees
Good
job!
Alex,
your program is by far THE BEST I have come across
for bass guitar on the Internet. Thank
you for being so thorough and GENEROUS with your information.
~ Gail Gouveia
Alex,
I have purchased tons of books and spend countless of
hours seaching for the ONE THING missing in my playing
ability... The ONE THING that would bring everthing I
have worked on together.
Your
CG-X System is the missing link I was searching for."THANK YOU" for making it availible
at my finger tips.
~ Victor Shelton
This
course is amazing!
The
content takes all the mystery out of playing and your
teaching style simply works.
You cover alot of ground in a very learnable way. I was
skeptical until I received the lessons but you delivered
exactly as promised! Bass Guitar Secrets *is truly*
worth $thousands!!
Thanks ~ Nick Garding

...I
am really enjoying going through the course and have already
learnt things which I could not and did not understand for
years! ...it's all good stuff and worth many times the cost.
Believe me I know, as I have spent a great deal of cash
on books that don't come anywhere near this.
I
say, it is so easy when it is explained in such a professional
way as opposed to the many cold and forbidding bass tutorials/books
out there which, in my experience, miss the VITAL information.
It is this which I have realized stagnates progress.
I
have to admit to myself that even though I can slap solo
(all the party tricks, triplets, double thumping, etc.
with the best of them (alright mate, almost) I lack in
the true bass playing depth, as like in your excellent
samples.
You
have definitely put a lot of heart and belief into this
project, albeit with tons of experience accumulated over
many professional years of playing (it shows).
Bass Regards

Kalim Nas
P.S.
By the way - the groove machine has very good patterns
and drum sounds, which I didn't expect.
The other programmes are damn good too. I am so glad you
have included with detailed information on how to develop
the inner clock. This one addresses my current problem
(Phew!).
I tried the metroPLUS software last night and I must
say what a cool idea!
For
years I have been using a metronome but did not feel that
it helped my inner clock too well and left me some what
frustrated. Now I have this! Awesome.
Dude,
I got to downloading the manuals and installing the files
last night and I was like "this guy's gotta be crazy
for giving me all this for what I paid"...
Nonetheless,
I'm impressed with your program. No instruction
book I've ever seen presents the material in the same
way you do.
Peace,
~
Mark Holmes
You
are right on! There is a GREAT amount of information
here[for such a low price], what's the catch?
I am already deeply in volume 1 and what can I say... I
like it! I like it! See ya! Thanks again!
~ Randy Engelbrecht
...I
just wanted to congratulate you on a job well done. I
am truly impressed at the knowledge I have missed after
all this time.
I
recently spent over $100 on two programs to help me learn
scales and the fretboard, only to later come across your
course and find that Bass Guitar Secrets
covers everything those did (and more) and explains
everything a lot better than both those programs combined!
You
have truly done an excellent job on this course and I
just
want you to know I am truly happy with your course so
far.
The
way you break everything down and explain it is amazing...
I can only imagine but the time you must have put into
this product is astounding.
Thanks
again!

By
coincidence, I was looking for a bass tab to a song I
like, (but couldn't play) and found your Bass Guitar Secrets
course ...Now I've already read the 250+ pgs... Twice!!
and wrote an index for fast "look-backs". (Yeah,
I'm going back now to practice/memorize.)
...Thanks
for a really solid instructional course easily worth
4 times the price!!

Alex,
I have dived into the course and all I can say is -- AWESOME!!!!
Thanks for all your hard work and then being so generous
as to share it.
~ Pastor Don McClery
Alex...
just so you know, I have been playing for around 15 years
or so, but self-taught...
I
have had a few "on-line" lessons that hit and
miss on things but
really don't give a clear picture of everything. From
what I have seen you really cover all the details.
Great
stuff!

Dan Fishman
Alex,
In
hindsight, the decision to purchase Bass Guitar
Secrets was one of my better ones... I am very
impressed with your approach to teaching and I must say,
the price is unbeatable.
The tools alone are worth the total cost of the package.
I
just picked up the bass for the first time a few weeks
ago (I have previously failed to learn both the piano
and guitar but I love the bass and the unlimited roles
it has in music)...
I
tried a DVD I purchased with the bass for a couple of
weeks, but I got pretty lost in the whole classic music-reading
theory but,
...your
method of teaching is right up my alley!
I am presently banging away on the scales and really concentrating
on my fingering. I have a habit of neglecting the pinkie...
Sorry
about droning on and on, but I'm pretty excited about
my progress so far. Thanks for making this available.
Peace.
~
Steve Acker
Hello
Alex,
I have owned a bass for about two years, but just really
started playing it in February.
I
have been taking professional lessons since then. But,
your approach is completely different from what I have
experienced so far.
Just the first few exercises have got my fingers doing
things they are not used to doing. That's a good thing.
I am looking forward to accelerating my learning experience.
This is going to be fun!
~ Ron Ackerman
Alex...
the course is fantastic and everything looks great,
your instructions are excellent and I'll tell you, I think
soon I'll be able to work on my bass a little bit more
comfortable.
Regards
~
Ivan G. Soto
Thanks
Alex,
I'm not sure if you will get this or not but after reviewing
your Bass Guitar Secrets... All I can say is Wow!!!!
~
Mike Stidham
Alex,
I too, have tons of books, videos, CD's, DVD's, a year
or more of weekly hour-long classes with one teacher,
occasional classes with 6 other teachers, 2 separate weeks
at bass camp, and sadly all I can play is one 12 bar blues
walking bass line -- Nothing else.
When
I came across your site, I really connected with the way
you described your course and decided to try it.
Yikes,
am I ever glad I did!!
I love the way you write! It is fun, directly to the point,
enthusiastic, motivating, and just the kick in the butt
I need!
Thanks
so much for writing this course -- I think I finally found
the way to become a bass player.
~
Hope Gerecht
I have just been taking a look at all the goodies that
come with your course. It's a lot!
I tell you, right from the get go, I have notice how
much more efficient your fretting technique is...
A bit awkward at first but I really think now it will
help my playing.
Thank
you.

Hi
Alex,
I
just wanted to say thanks for your amazing program.
I
have been playing the 5 string bass for five years and
have been in some top rock bands in Ireland. I spent tons
of cash on idiot teachers that made me feel bad about
my progress.
Then
I started (Bass Guitar Secrets) about a month ago and
became this bass virgin all over again.After
using your methods I could not believe the change and
speed of my runs and my improvs on some nifty bass licks.
Your
deal is a must have for any bass player.
I
even have older musicians saying, "Dude come jam
with us!! - You got some evil licks poping out there."
Anyways
be cool Alex and spread the new wave of bass learning.
Rock on!!

As
you can clearly see my friend if you've always wanted to play
fantastic bass lines, with all the tight grooviness, fancy runs, and
fretboard control of someone who has been playing for years,
my CG-X method is the REAL DEAL...
So
you can keep wasting your time looking for something else, but I guarantee
that you'll hate yourself later if you leave without checking out
this course today...
You
see, the overlooked secret lies in this...
If you
can hum "Doh-Ray-Me" and hear the difference in those
three tones, you already have what it takes to start using my system
and I guarantee that you'll be amazed at the startling results you'll
see...
We'll just
have to make one quick 5 second change to the way that you listen
and what you listen for, and you're practically all set!
Let me
explain...
How
to use this to play bass lines
you can truly feel proud of...
I want
to get right into telling you all the details you need to know to start
using CG-X today, but first two really quick sidenotes...
SIDENOTE
1)I want to tell you that this is NOT like ANY other instructional
bass book or video you've seen anywhere else.
If you're
expecting to have to spend 5 months scratching your head working out
a bunch of theory before you can start playing you're way off target.
...Or
if you think it's just some 'on-the-surface', basic examples of what
to do and not HOW to doit,like you
see in so many instructional videos and books... (You know what
I'm talking about... the frustrating approach that goes, 'here's-a-progression-here's-10-scale-patterns-now-good-luck-figuring-out-how-to-apply-them-and-sound-good')
again you'd be sadly mistaken.
What you'll
learn inside is exactly how to hit the ground running and be able to
play most any song you hear, off the top of your head and NOT need tabs
ever again. And more importantly, how to sound DAMN good doing it!
SIDENOTE
2)Why listen to me?
Good
question.
Well
you've already seen a TRUCKLOAD of REAL success
stories from REAL people just like yourself who gave my methods
a shot and were thrilled way beyond what they had hoped for.
And...
I could
tell you all sorts of wonderful and true stories I suppose,
about how I have performed for individual crowds of thousands of persons,
worked as a first call session bassist, performed on cruise boats,
belonged to a list of working bands, been the backbone of my church's
music department for over 7 years (played with them for well over
10 years) and taught 17 year olds who now put far more experienced
players to shame but...
Would
you really care?I hope not. This is about
you. Not me.
Certainly
you'll get to hear samples of what I think I'll be able to teach you
a little later down but for now all I'm asking you to do is to listen
long enough to test these ideas and see that they work for you,
personally.
If you're
willing to invest that time, I'm willing to take all the risk for you
because I firmly believe that the accolades of a player have absolutely
'squat' to do with you and how well you'll play -- And for now
that's all that matters! -- How well you play!..
What matters
is that YOU benefit from a comprehensive, ZERO 'guesswork' system that
works every time for;
1)
Listening to and quickly analyzing a song with the same ease
you'd read a billboard...
2) Having your brain automatically go into a feeding frenzy
producing dozens of killer ideas for bass lines following the
exact process I give you and...
3) Executing a professional sounding, irresistible bass part,
with the skill of someone who has been performing for years...
Ok! So
here goes that exact 3 step system...
Introducing
"Bass Guitar Secrets Super Course! -
The CG-X System To Bass Guitar Mastery" "How to Play
'Killer' Performance Level
Bass Lines For Any Song Right Off The Top of
Your Head -- Starting In 90 Days or Less"
(Now
I gotta warn you... As you can obviously see the full course is huge...
It's bulging with a lot of information, but don't worry... It's
carefully chunked down into easy to use components so that your progress
is smooth and easy as can be.)
Here are
some of the things you'll learn inside this fast paced, results-only
system from the day you crack open the very first page...
Component 1:
The Main Study Manuals
Component
#1:"The Main Study Manuals"
form the meat and potatoes of the course...
These are two well rounded study guides, over 250 plump pages of
pure, hard hitting content, comprehensive bass playing lessons, insider
concepts and step-by-step methods to take you from being a green,
soft-bellied beginner to having people thinking you have been playing
for years -- In the shortest time humanly possible.
...It'll set you on the way to discovering the secrets to the ultimate
groove and you'll learn a no fail, paint-by-numbers way to approach
any song and play it excellently without tabs, even if you never
heard the song before!
Here's
just a sample of what you'll discover within the first 7 days you start
using it...

"...Even
If You're A Total Beginner You Can Expect to
Be Creating Tight Grooves Like This In No Time!..
...CGX Is About Real-Life, Rapid Results!"
The
4 critical 'hooks' anyone can learn to inject in every
song starting right now, that always
separates a clinically dead, boring bass line from an irresistible
one that a listener *literally* can't get out of his head!...
Other than the most active gigging musicians most people can
only identify one or two of these factors and that's one reason
why their bass lines limp along near dead...
An
exact process for how to turn a boxy, bookworm sounding scale
pattern into a tight, magnetic groove by immediately 'sensing
out' the most convincing notes to play over every chord in
the progression - Everytime...
Exactly
what the CG-X formula is (an overview and all the nitty-gritty)
and how learning this detailed step-by-step sequence will
have you easily creating killer, performance level bass lines
for virtually any song you hear!
Two
stunning "knee-jerk like" triggers I learnt from
psychology class about how the brain accepts information that
finally explains why some bass lines will always sound
better to the ear than others - no matter how much you practice!
-- And how to use them to your immediate advantage anytime
someone has to listen to you play!
This is a POWERFUL lesson right here... If you've wondered
about some bass lines that you just can't get outta your head
here's the two-part secret you need to include in your playing!
What
every bass player must know about harmony and how chords are
constructed...
...And
a 15 minute crash course that will completely demystify even
the most complex sounding chord progressions so you instantly
know exactly which range of notes you can play for ANY song,
and even more than that, which notes are most likely
to be played.
My
accelerated fast-track plan with exact day by day practice
routines for how to go from being an absolute, 'ground
zero' beginner (who does not even know the strings on the
bass) to being able to confidently hold your end jamming
(and sounding good!) with your friends within 14 short
days!
A
full blown explanation (complete with diagrams) and
comprehensive practice routine to quickly harness the power
of Alex's unique 2 part "Fretboard Genius Method"to 'conquer' the entire fretboard and effortlessly play
across the full range of the neck without ever getting lost...
If you got Bass Guitar Secrets! for this lesson alone
it'd be well worth your time!
The 2 part "Fretboard Genius" concept
is based on something so simple I guarantee you'll kick yourself
for not having really seen the bass neck like this
before! -- I have a library full of guitar and electric bass
material, I scour the Internet everyday like a mad man, and
still I have never seen anyone teach fretboard agility this
way!)
The
absolute best notes to play over each chord and what octaves
they usually sound best in...
How
to fast forward ahead months of tedious music theory, get
straight to the core and still become a tight bassist that
isn't fazed by any chord chart...
How
to comfortably move between different 'registers' of the bass,
play confidently and not get stuck in a rut playing in only
one section...
Plain,
and accurate advice to chop a clear path through all the clutter
about learning to play electric bass. If you just bought your
first bass, this is where you start!
A
substitute system advanced musician use for playing fluently
without even knowing the notes that they are playing...
WARNING! Read this before you waste a single precious
second or another hard earned penny on any resource that tries
to fool you into some system for rote learning all the notes
on the fretboard! - Bottomline... You don't have to!
How
to avoid *the single biggest under the radar pitfall* of learning
to play bass, that immediately attaches itself like a 120lb
ball and chain to 99% of self taught players and is almost
solely responsible for them dragging along at one level for
most of their playing lives!
(...This had absolutely NOTHING to do with hand technique
in case you think you know what I'm talking about -- And if
you feel like your growth is flat lined you should look into
this immediately!)
OK
Let's stop for a quick break and take stock of where we are so far
with a very simple demonstration...
Just with the secrets you would have learned so far I can take you
from raw beginner stage to playing bass lines like this with a relative

The
secret of the groove suck - Perhaps the single fastest and
most effective way ever discovered to ignite your bass lines
and sound far more professional when you jam.
The
single biggest mistake that easily 90% of all bass players
make when trying to join chords or go from one mode to another
that makes your playing sound extremely disjointed...
The
little known 'edge' the world's top electric bassists have
known about for years -- It deals with how to really see the
notes on the bass and has everything to do with developing
advanced groove power fast... (No this has absolutely
nothing to do with scale 'degrees' or patterns... In fact
I bet you'll never guess what I'm referring to)...
The
truth about how to develop that vital 'communication' between
you as the bassist and the drummer by finally understanding
*exactly* what to listen for in his playing... (Hint: Most
people go left wing wrong in thinking that it's entirely about
the kick drum.)
Several
examples of how to quickly and easily create an irresistible
bass line for virtually any song, (even one you're hearing
for the very first time) using CG-X without sounding like
an amateur just playing through the root and 5th notes...
...I'm not kidding, these are the exact same secrets the world's
top session bassists use both live and in the studio to create
grooves that get them well paid!
Exactly
how to lock a groove that doesn't just mirror the drummer,
but instead compliments what he/she is playing wonderfully...(Anyone you play with will appreciate this skill greatly!)

starchy, boring and predictable...
What
the two most important things a beginner can do to their bass
lines right this minute to make them 10 times more attractive
to a listener are...
Two
virtually unknown secrets to accurately setting your inner
clock and why even players who have been practicing for decades
still don't know that they are 100% wrong about how to do
this!
How
to accurately predict the chords most likely to show up in
a progression (in most popular music) before you even touch
your bass.
What
your scales and modes are really for when you're learning
electric bass and a fresh new explanation of all the most
important scales you need to know to get started playing NOW.
How
to cut the time you spend on tedious technique work down by
35% - 65% and still get your hands into fantastic playing
shape without cutting corners.
What
your first job is as an electric bassist!
A
dead giveaway that you are a novice bassist, that IMMEDIATELY
draws attention to itself and prevents the listener from ever
even hearing and appreciating your real skill level...
...On the flip side, correct this and your playing is INSTANTLY
seen as exponentially more mature!
The
almost 'against the grain' way to position your hands and
attach your bass for maximum reach and fluidity even if you
have small hands.
Why
most players miss out on a largely important part of the drum
beat that accurately hints to several important
bass line ingredients... and... why they never even realize
it!

addition to the big 250+ page manuals, there are also 3...
4 hi-quality, jam-packed, audio kits that go along with
the course.

Kits #1 & #2: All Sound Files and Audio Commentaries
For Volume 1 & 2

BGS is a multimedia home study course, each volume
of the manual will refer to various exercises, demonstrations,
riffs and tons of other sound files for you
to benefit from...
To give you an idea, in total there are well over
350+ sound files that go along with the written and
illustrated manual and the files for the volume 1
and 2 of the main manuals can be found in these two
audio kits.
NB
Each track is individually numbered for easy reference.

you can probably already tell, "Bass Guitar Secrets" is literally a crash course, brain dump of everything you need to
know about how to play bass parts you can truly be proud, and how
to dramatically accelerate your present skills...
I
honestly can NOT think of any other course as comprehensive, but hey,
I might be a little biased. But really, it's kinda like jacking into
"The Matrix" and having me download a well-rounded, practical
bass education directly into your head in 90 days...
But what if this is all just a fancy pants SCAM?!
It's
