TECHNIQUE IS EVERYTHING

Scott Scott

I’ve been teaching bass for over 20 years, and over that time, I have worked with thousands of students from beginners through to full-time touring professionals.

The number one thing I do when watching a new student play for the first time is to assess their technique. It’s the foundation on which we’re going to build everything else. And if we don’t get the foundation right, nothing we build on top of it will be right!

The problem is most students view THEIR technique as one thing. it IS not.

Your technique is made of multiple elements. And to develop world-class bass technique, you have to work on each component separately and then bring it all together in a precise way and exact order.

My 26-week Bass Technique Accelerator Program is one of the most powerful programs I’ve ever created. In the Program, I’ll tell you exactly what to practice and how long to practice - every single week, for half a year.

The Accelerator Program is all about giving you a clear path and a clear focus. I’ve removed all the noise and distractions to get you laser-focused for your best year of bass ever.

INTRODUCING

A 26-week journey that will eradicate your chronic technique issues, and allow you to break through to the next level. All in as little as 20-minutes-a-day.

I indulged in the 26-week SBL technique course recently & it was simply OUTSTANDING! It Is So good & after that 26 plus weeks I have to say I am doing things I have never done with more ease & confidence.

YOUR WEEKLY BASS TEACHER:

I will be your personal bass teacher for 26 weeks (over half a year, whoop!) and will be helping you master the fundamental building block of your bass playing - your technique. Plus, I’ll be answering your questions on every lesson throughout the program, personally!

NO MORE CONFUSION!

When you become a student in my 26-week Bass Technique Accelerator Program, you’ll be able to stop worrying about what to practice next. Each week you’ll get one brand-new lesson containing your assignment where I tell you exactly how much time to spend on each specific exercise.

MY BIG PROMISE

It’s my mission to give you a simple, clear plan over the next 26 weeks that will not only rebuild your bass technique as you know it but will also push your abilities on the bass way beyond what you ever thought possible. My 26-week Bass Technique Accelerator Program is your path to playing more musical grooves, being able to play bass fills and runs without your technique letting you down. The Accelerator Program is your opportunity to finally sound the way you’ve always dreamed you could.

THIS IS not just another course.

This is not just a course like we have in the Membership. Don’t get me wrong our Membership courses are great. But this is longer and more in-depth, includes LIVE workshops with me, and world-class student support.

Weekly
lessons

You’ll get one new lesson every single week, based around one specific concept. Each lesson will contain four specific exercises to help you master the concept. I’ll tell you exactly how much time to practice each specific exercise to get maximum results.

6 live

Every month I’m doing a livestream workshop for the students of this program, which will give you the opportunity to interact with your fellow students, and ask me any burning questions.

One of the best decisions I made this year was to enrol in your technique class. I can definitely note the changes that are happening to my playing. When I go back and rehearse songs for my band or at gigs, I can see how these exercises are making my playing more focused and fluid.” — Ron

Many thanks! This is The best thing I have done in my playing. I am seeing improvement every week at my gigs. Awesome program!!!” — Doug

We had to create an amazing live-stream bonus for The Technique Accelerator.

Thankfully with today’s technology we now have the ability to stream these live classes around the globe. So wherever you are based, you can tune in, interact with you fellow students, and ask the man himself whatever burning questions you may have, in real-time.

Usually to get this type of interaction with me you’d have to travel to the UK, but let’s not talk about how many thousands of dollars that would cost (a lot!). We’ve included these interactive live classes at no extra cost.

And don’t worry. If for any reason you can’t make one of the live classes, they are recorded and uploaded into the masterclass portal within 24hrs after going live, so you can catch the replay in your own time, and at your own pace.

WHAT'S THE COST?

With over one million bass players following ScottsBassLessons now, I don’t get the chance to teach 1:1 students anymore – things in my life would get crazy.

The gag is, I still want to give you the chance to study with me every week just like you would with a regular bass teacher. So if that sounds like something you’d want to do, the Practice Accelerator is for you!

Summary & Cost:

  • Break through technique roadblocks
  • Skyrocket your progress as a bass player
  • Me as your "personal bass tutor" for 26 weeks
  • Beginner, intermediate & advanced
  • Do it in 20 minutes-a-day

I NOW HAVE FOCUS AND DIRECTION

Life-changer! After struggling for years to understand how to practice and what to practice I now have focus and direction. It's been big AhHa moment after moment, a mind-blowing, opening, and expansive experience. I've already experienced huge growth in bass and as a musician as a result from your guidance and this is just the beginning.

FAQ

When does the course start and finish?
This accelerator program will be delivered in 26 weekly lessons provided every Monday starting August 16, 2021. But for the first week, we'll be granting access as soon as enrollment closes - so you'll be able to get started on Thursday, August 12. We'll then deliver a new lesson on Monday each week, taking our last lesson in this program all the way out to Mid February of 2022!.
How long do I have access to the course?
Is lifetime access good for you, because that works for us
Are the lessons live?
The Technique Accelerator includes six (!!) monthly live seminars with Scott Devine - over a $600 value, free to you as a bonus.

That said, the core lessons are not live so you don’t have to be online to receive them, they are on-demand lessons that will be added to the course every Monday for you to watch at your convenience.
How long is each lesson?
Lessons average around 30 minutes per lesson with 4 specific exercises provided for each. It is recommended that you practice each exercise for 5 minutes a day, 4-5 days a week.
How long do I have to enroll?
Enrollment closes Friday, August 13.
What if I am unhappy with the program?
The Technique Accelerator is backed by my no-questions-asked, 30-day guarantee — which is now trusted by over 70,000 bass players like you from around the globe.

That means if the lessons in The Technique Accelerator don’t help you transform your technique better than anything you’ve ever tried, just send one quick email to our friendly support team here in the UK within 30 days of the start of the course (August 16, 2021).



We’ll return every cent you paid. And we’ll even eat the credit card processing fees.
Is this program self paced?
The Technique Accelerator is delivered weekly over 26 weeks of study to help keep students focused and help to reduce overwhelm. Through our research, we’ve found that this leads to a much better learning experience for our students.

That said, although the modules are delivered weekly, this is a self-paced course. So depending on your level of bass playing right now, you may want to spend a few weeks on each module, and in some cases even more time. It all depends on how fast you want to work through the materials and how much practice time you’ve got.

So in a nutshell, the pace and intensity of this program is totally customisable to your specific needs.
Will there be any live elements?
Yes! The Technique Accelerator will include 6 LIVE seminars from Scott Devine.

— Thursday 09 September (15:30BST / 14:30 UTC)
— Thursday 07 October (15:30BST / 14:30 UTC)
— Thursday 04 November (15:30 GMT/UTC)
— Thursday 09 December (15:30 GMT/UTC)
— Thursday 13 January (15:30 GMT/UTC)
— Thursday 10 February (15:30 GMT/UTC)
Is this program for beginners?
If you're a total beginner, this program is not for you. You should be able to play the instrument already and have a basic understanding of things like arpeggios and scales.

Be that as it may, if you're anything other than a total beginner, you will find this accelerator valuable.
Who is this program not for?
If you're the kind of bass player who's not willing to practice their craft and expects to get better by simply watching more and more videos hoping that it'll raise their game, this program is not for you.
Does this program work for all styles of music?
Absolutely! This program is a complete methodology that will work for any style of music.
If I miss enrolment this time around, when will enrolment reopen?
We won’t be reopening in 2021. The next conceivable time we’d offer the Technique Accelerator is in late 2022.
