Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does it have tab or just notation?
It is written in standard notation with tablature, the usual Hal Leonard bass format. You can read from the tab alone if you do not read notation.
02Is there a CD or audio included?
No. This is a print book only, with no disc or download card.
03Is this good for a beginner?
It is a song collection, not a method book. You need basic left and right hand technique and the ability to follow tab before it is useful.
04What size is the book?
12 by 9 inches, the standard songbook page size, so it fits a normal music stand.
