greghagger Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Many students have come to me asking how to create bass line from a chord chart or progression. Some have said that they are completely stuck if they are asked to deviate from the set bass line or improvise a bass line on the spot. My advice is to just start and experiment. Use your ears to play what YOU think sounds good. Use ideas and concepts from your favourite bassists. I know this is easier said than done and there are some common building blocks you need to know that you can use as a framework in which to create bass lines from. So, I've put a video together showing you my process when presented with just a chord progression and asked to make up my own bass line. This lesson is easy to follow and you're bound to pick up some ideas that you can put into practice straight away. Find out more in the YouTube video. Free PDF download in the video description. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
