The Beast Advanced Scale Exercise Bass Tab
The Beast Advanced Scale Exercise Bass Tab
If you find yourself getting lost when you change positions, take a moment to find your root notes in that position,
and it will be easier to frame the rest of the notes around that. Don't be afraid of all the high notes - it's just your bass!
Below is the exercise just in the key of C Major. This is also the same notes for all the modes of C - D Dorian,
E Phrygian, etc. You could actually practice just what's written here 7 times in a row, changing in your mind where
the root note is.
If you want to see it written out in every key, along with two related beastly arpeggio exercises, check out my new
eBook where I've written everything out in full, in 60+ pages of glory, at joshfossgreen.com/books
