This is a comprehensive jazz bass method book representing my philosophy of bass line construction, from beginning to advanced levels of understanding. After being frustrated by a lack of books with strong pedagogical insight on this topic, I took it upon myself to write a method that I believe accomplishes teaching the basics of sound production, layout development, and walking line construction. The word how is the driving force of the pedagogy in this method - through numerous examples, explanations, and supplemental recordings, I hope to provide the insight for the reader understand how I make decisions and apply the same thinking to their own playing.
