OK! Time to put out new-found knowledge to work for us in a fun and practical way by playing some music! Well play some simple and fun Reggae grooves that you can easily expand upon to jam with your friends. We start out with a very recognizable bass line that just uses Major Arpeggios to outline a I-IV-V progression in the key of G. Notice how when your hand is anchored in the correct position (Middle finger on the Root) your fingers will fall right into place to play the Arpeggio and create the bass line. We then switch to D and A Minor, change our hand position and play the Arpeggios backwards to create another standard reggae bass line.

I am a beginner on bass. I can be quite good playing quite complicated riffs and stuff but when it comes to moving up and down the fretboard for chord changes, I go to pieces. Help!

[pixelnat0r]

@SteveArpo It just takes practice (ik this is a year late) but i used to be the same way with guitar and bass guitar... until i started practicing songs that would go up and down the frets but once u get used to it and start experimenting with all the different sounds its fun
