Vincen García’s New Online Bass Course — Out Now!

Introducing Funk It Up! my first signature bass course
Every journey has a beginning, and this is ours. My passion for the electric bass has led me to incredible experiences, discovering places, and meeting amazing people, which is why it's very exciting for me to share my method, and explore this incredible instrument together. I see musical learning as something organic and fun, without borders, compartments, or labels. To structure this course, I needed to organize the information in some way, both theoretically and practically. With this in mind, I have designed a study guide with an extensive section where I will explain in detail my solos and grooves. We will also analyze the five pillars that form the foundation of my style: pentatonics, greek modes, slap, ghost notes, and the diminished scale. Finally, we’ll take a look at some licks. Thank you all for your trust.

Course FAQ
-
This course is designed for intermediate to advanced bass players who want to deepen their understanding of the funk language.
Throughout the lessons, you'll work on techniques and stylistic tools specific to funk, such as slap, ghost notes, raking, bends, hammer-ons and pull-offs, and more — all with the goal of improving both your technique and your musicality and groove.
The course is based on a learning method developed by Vincen García, where he shares his personal tips, tricks, and approaches to playing the bass in a more expressive, effective, and creative way. -
It’s recommended that you have a basic understanding of the electric bass — such as how to play basic chord shapes, and simple grooves.
If you're already comfortable playing some bass lines and are looking to take your playing to the next level, this course is perfect for you. You'll dive into more advanced techniques and musical concepts that will help you expand your vocabulary, refine your groove, and express yourself with more confidence and creativity on the instrument. -
Three-year access to all video lessons. You’ll have unlimited access to the entire course for three full years, so you can learn at your own pace and revisit lessons as many times as you need during that period — no rush, no pressure.
Downloadable PDF materials. Lessons come with supporting materials such as tabs, theory summaries, scale diagrams, and backing tracks to help you study and practice the concepts more effectively.
Step-by-step exercises with in-depth explanations. The course offers progressive exercises that break down each technique or idea in detail, helping you not only understand it, but also apply it musically and creatively.
-
Three years — no rush, no pressure. You can revisit any lesson whenever you want during that time, whether it's to review a technique, refresh a concept, or keep practicing at your own pace. This gives you plenty of time to absorb the material, grow as a player, and return to the content as your skills evolve.
-
Yes! The course is 100% online and self-paced. You can access the entire course from anywhere in the world, at any time — for a full 3 years from the date of purchase. Whether you prefer to study in the morning, at night, or on weekends — you set the schedule. There are no deadlines or live sessions you have to attend, so you can progress at your own rhythm, pause when needed, and revisit any lesson as many times as you want during those three years. It’s all about making learning convenient and tailored to your lifestyle.
-
All you need is an electric bass, a way to hear it (amp, interface, or headphones), and an internet connection. That’s it — no fancy equipment required. You can follow the course with just your bass and a basic setup to hear yourself clearly, whether it’s through an amplifier, audio interface, or even headphones connected to a practice tool. A metronome can be a great addition to help you stay in time, and a loop pedal can be useful for creating grooves and practicing layered ideas, but both are completely optional. The most important thing is your motivation and your bass!
-
The course is originally recorded in Spanish and includes English translations generated with AI to make it accessible to more students around the world. To choose the language for each lesson, just click the settings icon (⚙️) on the video playback bar and select your preferred language. If the course keeps the groove going strong, more language versions will follow down the line — and don’t forget to share your language preferences with us! ;)
