I subscribed to this a few months ago just to see how good it was. On average, its ok. Reviews lag the internet, some articles good, but this month’s issue is really good.
a look at the internet’s 4-top bass players making BIG bucks and basically never playing live and what the future of this medium may bring with (now millionare) Davie504 leading the charge.
crossover interview between Stu Hamm and Ari Cap on playing, teaching, etc
Last month had a good article on John Paul Jones as well.
There is an e version of the mag for tablets and PC for folks in areas that don’t have hard copies.
The guy is marketing genius. I cannot stand that stage persona of his, but from time to time I watch a couple of his videos and … I get it why he is so popular.
Big Brain stuff here.
I love Davie504, his dry humor, he’s really clever on many levels.
He does great bringing in old bits and snippets that are ‘inside jokes’ if you watch him long enough.
Bass Player magazine is great, it’s nice to get a physical copy too - if you google something like “bass player magazine subscription”, you can get a deal where it ends up being really cheap per issue. Guessing they must make their money on ads, I was getting it for just over a buck an issue, you’d think the postage just to send it would be more than that?!
