Ah good to know @sfadams – I heard about the site upgrade but not that the All-Access is going away. Probably a good call… AAP is a good way to preview his courses but it’s not really a replacement for purchasing them. And it’s hard to really know that until you’ve already spent the money.

I have never signed up for AAP because after doing some calculations in a spreadsheet (time/monthly payment), I determined in the bigger picture it’s more economical to purchase the courses I’m interested in. I have purchased 10 of his courses so far (all on sale) and have been 100% satisfied with each one. Not to mention, I have a nice library of spiral bound reference manuals that I printed out from the PDFs.

Wow, I just saw that. I sent that to Mark over a year ago, and never realized he actually put it on the site.

Hey @PamPurrs do you know if talkingbass do a spring sale.? I finish b2b in a couple of days just wondering whether to wait or get a couple of courses straight away thanks.

In my experience with TalkingBass, Mark announces sales unexpectedly for various reasons. I don’t recall if he has ever had any seasonal sales (Spring, Fall, etc.). I know in my time with the site, I have seen at least 4 sales. The first one was when he first released the Essential Scales course in summer of 2019, which was the first one I purchased. Since then I have seen them come and go. The only one I vividly recall was to celebrate the 7th anniversary of TalkingBass.
I have purchase all my courses during sales and have saved a passel of money. I would suggest you bite the bullet and buy at least one course now, and then start saving your money so you can buy a bunch of courses during the sale.
I’ll certainly keep you posted as soon as I catch wind of another sale.

You get a small discount on your first course after you make an account as well.

I bought my first course on sale, so I didn’t get that discount, but the sale price was 30% off.
His courses are pretty reasonably priced for what you get, too - Something like $69 for a 53 lesson course, with Chord Tones.

Give it a try. You can always remove one of the courses from your cart before you actually checkout.

You will only get a discount on one I think. It’s a coupon code. But worth a shot.

Excellent! Those two courses compliment each other nicely. I finished the scales course first, and then moved to chord tones. Everything falls into place with chord tones.
