Up on the Low-down: Thinking like a bass player.
Published: Apr 8, 2016 | Category: Music Learning
Some of you might remember my invitation for you to "Think like a bass player!" . You may also the series of visual "root mapping" , & movable chord progressions that follows.
Here is a great article that helps further the idea of "picking bass player brains" as guitarists.
Bass players are after all guitarists.
As 6 string guitarists, even while strumming, it is a very good idea for us to think as ourselves as our own bass player as well. At any level, you will gain an organizing sense of architecture. That will free up your melodic expression, even wit just one chord or two...
Anyway, don't get me going, enjoy the read & honor playfully the bass notes of your chords.
