Hey, James here!
In this lesson, we’re diving into a 5-minute drill that will supercharge your fretboard knowledge and overall bass-playing technique. This exercise is based on the Circle of Fifths, using minor and dominant 7th arpeggios. It’s a perfect drill to strengthen your fretting hand and improve your navigation across the neck.
I’ve been playing the bass for years, but one thing I realised early on is the importance of consistent drills to develop muscle memory and confidence. This drill is designed to help you move freely across the fretboard, so you can tackle a wide range of basslines with ease. Whether you’re just starting out or are an experienced player, this is a must-have in your practice routine!
As always, you can download the free PDF that comes with this lesson, featuring all the exercises written out in both standard notation and tablature. Just hit the button below to grab your copy. Ready to crack on and get those fingers moving?
