Will these lessons work on four string bass?

Yes! Adam Ben Ezra plays a five string double bass with a high C string but throughout this course, he only uses the four strings of a regular double bass (E, A, D & G). This means the lessons are easy to follow and you can use exactly the same fingerings on your four string bass.

"A very complete course! There's no secrets, it's all explained step by step."

- Tithouan Féron
