Man. You have just relieved years of confusion and stubbornness in just an hour and half. I am so impressed!”
— Michael Tor

Nothing will hold you back more than not knowing your Fretboard.

Do you ever feel like—no matter how much you practice or try to play something fresh and creative—your fingers always go to the same, boring old patterns? Almost like they have a mind of their own?

Talk about frustrating. And sadly, this frustration plagues almost every bass student I talk to. So sleep easy, it’s not just you.

It turns out that mastering the fretboard is uniquely difficult, and here’s why. I like to call it...

THE
FRETBOARD
PARADOX

What is "The Fretboard Paradox"?

The trouble with patterns and shapes is that, on one hand, they are the foundation we use when learning how to play the bass. But on the other hand, using traditional patterns and shapes can leave you feeling trapped in a small area of the fretboard.

It feels like you're locked in “bass jail”.

Where every time you want to play more fun and challenging bass parts, you end up feeling lost as you try to utilize the upper strings and frets. And you quickly give up and go back to playing the same-old patterns and shapes again.

This doesn't happen to great bass players.

Think of your favorite bass player, whether it's Jaco, Hadrien Feraud, Gary Willis, or Marcus Miller.

Notice anything? They don’t get “stuck” playing a small section of the fingerboard.

They weave their way up and down the fretboard — almost without thinking about it. And they connect all of those super-juicy bass lines together with ease.

So at this point, you’re probably thinking that all you have to do to master the fretboard is follow in the footsteps of your favorite bassist…

There’s just one problem with that...

THE
PLOT TWIST

After getting to know dozens of the world’s best bass players, I realized they ALL followed a different approach to mastering the fretboard. But however they did it, it required marathon practice sessions — with almost inhuman levels of focus.

So it would be almost impossible for an everyday bass player to master their fretboard by following in the footsteps of their favorite bass players.

Because few of us have the time to spend eight hours practicing every day. Plus even if you do, most people don’t have the same raw skill that it takes to master the fretboard by brute-force memorization and repetition.

So I started to wonder if there was a better way to master the fretboard, instead of relying solely on talent and time in the shed.

The Secret of
Great Bass Players (and the unfortunate truth)

I wondered if I could find a systematic, “paint-by-numbers” approach that would allow anyone to improve their fretboard fluency — in a matter of weeks. Not years.

That way, anyone would be able to break free from the same-old patterns and blaze their way up and down the neck, just like their favorite bass players.

So I started looking high and low for clues. I poured over my old practice journals. I dug up my old exercise books. I even revisited lessons I took with my own mentors — like Gary Willis and Jeff Andrews.

And after months of tinkering, I finally found the clue I was looking for buried in the back of an old music theory textbook…

This age-old harmonic concept reveals the "source code" of the bass fretboard.

While I was looking for a way to demystify the fretboard, I remembered an age-old harmonic concept that I learned from one of my music teachers.

And after playing around with it for a bit, I realized this concept allows you to connect every fretboard pattern that you’ve ever learned…and you ever will learn…into just FOUR “master” patterns.

In fact, it’s physically impossible to play anything on the bass that does not fall into one of these four patterns. Which is why I call these master patterns the “source code” of the bass fretboard. Because they allow you to “see” the notes on the fretboard as a single, cohesive unit. Not fragmented, disconnected patterns.

The only problem is, these master patterns are also MUCH more complex than typical patterns and shapes. Which is why no one ever thought to use this method to teach mastering the fretboard before.

So I knew if I was going to be the first person to crack the code, I would need some help…

And that’s when I called up Eric Wills — a 10-year veteran in creating music training programs, who has worked with everyone from Pearl Jam, to Billy Sheehan, to The Red Hot Chili Peppers. (He’s Head of Educational Content here at SBL — and a badass bass player!)

For four months, we experimented with different ways to teach these complex master patterns — looking for anything that might serve as a shortcut. A few times, we thought we had cracked the code…only to shake our heads in frustration when we realized we had actually just gone around in circles.

The Breakthrough

But then, after throwing out our first three or four versions, we finally figured out an accelerated approach to teach these master patterns that actually worked.

And from there, we were able to create the first and only step-by-step course for gaining complete control over the bass fretboard, in just a few weeks, by using these four master patterns.

Break free of your ruts, and get the proven, “paint-by-numbers” system that will unlock the fretboard in just 30 minutes-a-day.

The Fretboard Accelerator is 16-module course that will take you from repeating the same patterns over-and-over to creating your own original lines without even thinking about it, all in as little as 30 minutes-a-day.

This course is bringing my playing skills to a point I never thought I had. I have a teacher that I study with once a week and he even noticed a difference.” — Matthew Tavella

“My deepest thanks for this outstanding course. It has single handedly taken my playing to heretofore unheard heights. It is simply amazing to me just how much more comfortable, confident and fluent I feel I have become with my fretboard.” — Michael Callaghan

“[This] concept…is a game changer! I’ve been playing for 10+ years (as a hobbyist) and I’ve always struggled to learn the fretboard. Just with this week, I think I have improved more than the last 10 years.” — Antonio Baker

Discover
The Triadic
Harmony
Concept

The “Triadic Harmony Concept” reveals that ALL western music falls into just four triads — the major, minor, augmented, and diminished. And that means everything you play on the bass can also be broken down into just four “master patterns” — which align with these four triad types.

The problem is, these four master patterns are also much harder to learn than traditional patterns and shapes. So in order to increase your fretboard fluency, you can’t just learn these master patterns on paper or practice them in random order.


You need to follow a system that breaks these complex master patterns down into simple, step-by-step exercises — until you can “see” the entire fretboard and your fingers have intuitive control of the entire neck…

Which is exactly what we’ve built with The Fretboard Accelerator program.

Reviews

This has been an amazing program! As someone who played on, and off for many years, but never had a good teacher, or organized method I had tons of holes in my understanding and playing. This was the perfect remedy, and the improvement has been awesome. I also now had a solid idea of my path for future development, and what to work on each day.
Suzanne Cook

Eye opener - so much of my practice time was wasted in any given practice. Now with the 80/20 technique and the steps you laid out, it feels so much more productive. This course has been a great help to my overall playing Scott, Thank you so much for this course. YOU'RE AN AMAZING TEACHER!
Dominick Bertolini

This course is going to create a lot of monster bass players! I [am] playing new things without seeming to have to work harder. What that means is I didn't have to perform some extra step to incorporate the new knowledge. It was automatic.
Karl Thorkildsen

I am SO HAPPY I SIGNED UP! Thank you for helping me rediscover a love of Bass that I never even had when I was playing years ago.
Micah Doge

This system has already blown my mind…During our last song of the night I was playing in a pretty tight group of root notes, and just started seeing these patterns. For once I was not just a root-rider. I amazed myself!
David Holton

I have to say that this course is a game changer for me. After just a little more than a week I'm already getting really familiar with notes on the fretboard I've never been quite comfortable with.
Tim Clark

What I was able to do [this morning] totally blew my mind! I was able see the notes for each chord clearly all over the neck right down to the 17th fret. I was able to move freely from one area of the neck to other areas without any problems…I played the track for about 15 minutes and had so much freedom and fun. I've never experienced this before with my playing and it is totally liberating and exciting. This is ALL because of this course. Thank you so much!
Terry James Sinclair

I’ve made this small investment a no-brainer for you...

With over one million bass players following ScottsBassLessons now, I don’t get the chance to teach 1:1 students anymore. That’s why I’ve created a comprehensive, on-demand experience that will feel like I’m by your side every step of the way, but lets you level up your bass playing on your schedule.

What’s more, you’ll get a full 4 months of LIVE support in the course comments from my world-class team! What if you had that type of ground-breaking material and support at your fingertips? How much faster could you reach your goals?

If you were to cover the same comprehensive material with a local bass tutor, it would easily cost you a minimum of $1,300.00. That’s not an exaggeration—that’s a conservative estimate. Private lessons add up quickly, both in your time and your money.

But I don’t want you to spend $1,300.00. I don’t even want you to pay $999.00. Instead, I’m offering you complete access to the entire Fretboard Accelerator program for a one-time, affordable investment in your happiness.

FAQ

Will I have lifetime access to this program?
Absolutely. Once you become a student of the Fretboard Accelerator program you will have lifetime access and will be able to access the learning materials 24/7.
Is this program self-paced?
The Fretboard Accelerator is delivered weekly over 16 modules of study to help keep students focused and help to reduce overwhelm. We recommend that students dedicate at least one week to each module before moving on. Through our research, we’ve found that this leads to a much better learning experience for our students.

That said, this is a self-paced course. So depending on your level of bass playing right now, you may need to spend less time or more time on each module before moving on. 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.
How much time do I need to commit?
To get the absolute maximum from this program we recommend 20-30 minutes per day practice time (4-5 days per week). If you have less than that, you will still get great results, but things will take a little longer.
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.
Are the lessons live?
The module lessons are not live so you don’t have to be online in real time to receive them. They are on-demand lessons that you can watch at your convenience.
How long is each lesson / module?
In each module there’s between 1 hour and 90 minutes of video spread out over 8-10 lessons.
What if I am unhappy with this program?
We offer a no-questions-asked 30-day money back guarantee to make sure our students are happy with any of our programs.

Simply put, if you find this program isn’t right for you, simply drop us a line at support@scottsbasslessons.com and we’ll refund you immediately.
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.
Is this only for 4-string basses? What if I have a 5 or 6 string?
Although the exercises for this program were demonstrated on a 4-string bass, they are totally transferable to 5 and 6-string basses. This is because the core concept is based on shapes that can be played on multiple locations on the fingerboard, no matter how many strings your bass has… you’ve got a 10-string bass… we’ve got you covered! ;)
How long do I have to enroll?
Enrollment for this program will close Friday, September 27 at 11:59 pm PDT
If I miss enrollment this time around, when will enrollment reopen?
We won’t be reopening in 2024. The next conceivable time we’d offer the Fretboard Accelerator is in 2025.
