Here's what 8 String Master Bassist Igor Saavedra has to say about Bass EncycloMedia: "The depth of information and the author's ability to find the best and most innovative ways to present the fundamental aspects of music surprised me. I found his use of scale degrees to symbolize sound on the fretboard to be a creative, realistic and direct approach that is of tremendous benefit to those wanting to understand music theory on the bass.
