Man these have been suuuuch amazing practice tools for me to increase speed, accuracy, and strength. After about 3 weeks I’ve started to get my finger and plectrum picking both up from about 80-85 BPM max to a comfortable 110BPM on the final exercise. Thanks so much for this free information!!

NIce job, nice bass, and it's wonderful to see somebody emphasize the importance of right hand technique. It's so important to alternate fingers even when it feels unnatrual at first in order to get speed. You see so many bass players that just do like they feel on the right hand but it's a hinderance to reaching really great speed and articulation.

I'll throw in my two cents here just because kids forget sometimes that PENTAtonic means 5 notes, and the blues scale w/b5 or blue note, become a HEXAtonic meaning 6 notes. So basically it's the same scale with the added blue note or flat (b5).Good teacher.Loved your lesson on Bass chords,very well explained.

The first run hangs on the final G as an eighth note instead of a 16th note. The 2nd run is all 16th notes, that's how more notes are able to fit in.
