Rated 5 out of 5 stars

The value is much more the cost.

The lessons cover a wide range of skills, from beginner to pro. My understanding of music theory, sight-reading, and groove has helped me play more confidently. I was hesitant to start, but the free trial allowed me to assess my skills and then begin where I needed help. The bass hangouts are amazing, and everyone who’s a member is welcome.

World's greatest Bass education platform

You can get lessons in very different genres.
For every bassplayer there's something you can learn.
The lessons are very clear and you can play along with mp3 'that are available plus written tablature.
Also the bass teachers that are invited can teach you a lot.
Overal the best investment you can get for your money.

Tons and tons of materials..

Tons and tons of materials... I don't have to dig into Internet, everything is at SBL. Teachers are very good and professional. I also see that courses are developing in technical aspect. Modern and friendly platform!

Extremely helpful and enthusiastic.

Considering the tons of well structured material and resources very reasonable price. Very good and likeable instructors, super community that keeps you going. Amount of nerdiness self-adjustable, depending how many and which videos you decide to watch. Plus, they tell you the truth about having to invest time and love, no pseudo-shortcuts offered.

Believe

SBL is always upgrading,Adding lots of new ideas. I've been a member for a long time, It's up to the player and time one puts in to how good one gets. There is already a life time of content. I Started at a the later years of life, I wish I had started earier, Like Charlie Kirk says...going to college is not needed if you have the right program and SBL is the right program if you want to be a profesional bass player or just want to have fun.

Tons of content for all levels

Tons of content for all levels. The instructors/mentors are excellent, too. They don't just know how to play - they know how to teach. I learned using SBL and am still using it years later.

I got to study with John Patitucci

I got to study with John Patitucci. How awesome
is that! It is one of many great courses on SBL.
It is a well set up course on rhythm and groove with some daunting sight reading as well .
You can basicly find anything you need as a bass player in one of the SBL courses and study your ass of with worlds best bass players on any topic.
