Pages: 1 2 3 4 5 6 Suggested Tempo: 120

Many people when they first start of have a very hard time getting to be aquainted with their bass(meansing playing with ease). So i have composed information/exercises to help you people who had the same problem when i first started of playing the bass which helped me. All you should do with each one of these little bass execises is play them while you are bored on the phane with your girl or boy friend or just while wacthing TV. I would recommend only doing these then because to get your timeing down youe will have to concentrate on then music at which you are playing/listening to. So sum it up ...PRACTICE!!!! (this lesson is just simple exercises nothing more)

***I would recommend useing your fingers but if you like the pick it is your choice. When useing your fingers use your index and middle to start of. Then after a while of mastering this lesson start to mess around with the riffs and use triplets(which includes your ring finger) whiile mixing the riffs up to yoru likeing.***

All you have to know is: 1. nothing except how to plug your bass.....into an amp 2. sorda how to read basic bass tabs..which is pretty well explaind
