Anyone tried Pick Up music for bass?

Just curious as I’ve seen it advertised a lot recently.

They provide bass lessons at all levels (beginner, late beginner, intermediate, advanced) and their stuff looks pretty interesting. Have a look: Pickup Music - The most structured approach to learning bass

I don’t see this replacing the Josh-B2B ==> Mark-TalkingBass path. Plus, Pickup Music is a subscription operation: $30/month or $180/year. I prefer to buy once and have lifetime access. The one plus to Pickup is that the guy teaching the Guitarist to Bassist Pathway is playing a Serek Midwestern 2 shorty. That’s a great bass.

That’s fair. Not a fan of subscription based services either. Their stuff does look pretty cool though. Even though it’s for their guitar course, I really do love this ad they made: https://youtube.com/shorts/okyGIo1jjfA

I tried pick up music on bass, but the girl went home with the singer nonetheless… :rofl:

The trick is to tell the girls that you’re the lead guitar player and hope that they don’t count your strings :slight_smile:

I tell them I am a bass and fiddle player which gives me strong agile fingers, and I play bagpipes so I can breathe through my ears. :wink:
