Search - The Bass Grimoire DVD on DVD

Very informative but could have done without the theatrics

"This dvd definitely compliments the book and helps tie things together. My only complaint is with the theatrics and vocal effects. This dvd would have been better if given an option to choose type of audio (style of narration). I would have chosen listening to the narration without the vocal effects. Don't care much to see the narrator dressed as the grim reaper (supposed to be a wizard but I see no resemblance to Merlin). Maybe if this dvd were trying to capture the attention of the death metal crowd it might be appealing. For distribution to a broader range of bass players, they should consider a more serious approach for the next version released. Minus one star for the grim reaper and vocal effects. Otherwise this would have been a five star. If you can tolerate the poor vocals and costumed actor, then get this dvd. There's no guarantee they will revise this dvd to make it more mainstream. The instructional information provided by the dvd is top notch."

"It's a joke. There is some information covered but it is not well organized. It's just some dork who wants to act like he's a heavy metal, devil worshipping, wanna be.

The "actor" could have been a mannequin; he sat still on his "throne" with his stupid hood pulled down over his face and just talked.
