In my recent quest to learn all that I could about playing Bluegrass Bass I discovered the following bass-related sites that I thought were worth sharing. The first is a great forum akin to Talkbass.com comprised of players of all levels. The next two are free lesson sites that are great if you are just getting started. The last two provide more focused and in depth lessons for a monthly fee.

Good post! I’ve been playing a lot of blues lately in open mic jams. It’s been really fun and I’m wanting to learn more. Have you come across any blues bass websites worth mentioning?
Hey Bronson, great to hear that you’ve been getting out there and playing! I haven’t found any “Blues” specific bass sites in my travels but will keep an eye out for you.
Hi!.. Stanton is there a specific scales in Bass Bluegrass?
Nothing specific, as far as I know. Seems to me that Bluegrass tends to mainly stick to the Major Scales
