Is It Too Late To Learn To Play Bass Guitar As An Adult?

Is It Too Late To Learn To Play Bass Guitar As An Adult?

In this lesson, we are going to answer a very common question.  Is it too late to learn to play bass guitar as an adult?

 

The answer to this question is:

 

Nope! It’s never too late to learn to play bass guitar. All you need are three things:

  1. The desire to learn

  2. The willingness to do the work

  3. A comprehensive training course to get you there

 

If you have all three things, there is no way you can fail. But you must have all three to unlock the fun and joy of playing music.  Once you have that, you will learn to play bass guitar.

 

The Desire To Learn

To achieve anything new in life (anything) you must have desire!  This is the start of all things that have been achieved over time.

 

When you set an ambitious goal you head down a path of uncertainty, and it is how much desire you have towards that goal that makes the difference if you accomplish it or not.

 

One of the reasons most people do not reach the goal they’ve set for themselves (any goal) is because they don’t have enough of a burning desire for it.  That is why they end up quitting.

 

Do you have a burning desire to learn the bass guitar?  If so, you’ve accomplished step one.  If not, you’ll need to get it.  Now, let’s look at step two.

 

The willingness to do the work

This is a must for anything you wish to achieve especially if you want to play bass guitar.  Because the strings are thick the hands and fingers will need time to adjust to the activity of playing the bass.

 

Can you do it?  Of course, you can.  It’s not impossible.  Many other people have done it so why not you?  You just have to be willing to do the work. Do this daily and you will see results.

 

And yes, it is work.  Just like all other things you’ve accomplished in your life.  If you have the desire and you’re willing to do the work, there is no way you won’t get to where you are going.

 

So, if you have the first two things, the desire to learn the bass, and the determination to make it happen no matter what, then all you need now is number three.  Which will make the first two things much easier to accomplish.

 

A comprehensive training course

Now I can’t do anything about the first two. That’s all on you. But I can offer you the third thing. The comprehensive training course.

 

This will provide you with the step-by-step action guide that will take you from uncertain and confused, to clearly focused and confident.

 

It is a straightforward path toward a widely successful skill in playing the bass guitar the way you have always dreamed of.  That is, if you have the desire to get there, and the willingness to do the work.
