Having performed and recorded with everyone from Dizzy Gillespie to Kitaro, Victor Wooten and Metallica, Steve is a true master of the fretless bass. This book will help you successfully make the transition from fretted to fretless bass. The exercises within have both studio and live-playing applications and cover such topics as intonation, sliding, string blending, and fretless effects.

This book will help any bassist develop the necessary technique to master this difficult but beautifully melodic instrument.
