Easy Guide To Bass Pentatonics

[greghagger]

I frequently bang on about pentatonic scales because they are essential to know if you want to start creating your own bass riffs, licks and fills. It can sometimes be hard to actually find the practical use of scales, but the pentatonic scales give you fretboard patterns and a particular sound, that you can use as a framework when creating or learning bass lines.

 

In my latest video I cover the two pentatonic scales and also show you alternative patterns for both scales. This is the starting point for delving into pentatonics, and I've presented the scales in a lesson that is clear and easy to understand. 

 

There’s a free lesson PDF which you can get by clicking the link under the video in the description. This would be handy to have on a wall or music stand in your practice area. 

 

Enjoy!
