Shred Knowledge!

Hi guys, here is a bass line that you can play next time you're in a guitar shop to make people start tapping their feet and nodding their heads.

The masters of groove as far as I am concerned - Earth Wind and Fire  - and my personal favourite bass line - Boogie Wonderland. I have done this lesson up on a PDF with embedded media and you will need adobe reader to view this. If you don't already have this you can get it here. http://get.adobe.com/reader/?promoid=BUIGO.  This is an absolutely spoon fed lesson and you should be able to get this down in a relatively short time, depending on your current ability. What I have done is break it down bar by bar and then I play the lines in monotone so that you can work on the timing of the lick and then worry about which notes to play. I then have the parts played slowly and increase in tempo while you simply play along. I join them all up at the end and give you a drum track to jam over and a few ideas to create your own bass grooves. The only bummer about this is the the video content doesn't work for mac users due to the format I used, but everything else should work fine. Here is the link to download the lesson (it is 30MB by the way).

Enjoy practicing,

Jason Vearing.
