š My full beginner bass course: yeah.bassbuzz.com/bluesbox
Take your beginner blues bass to the next level. The Blues Box gives you fail-proof notes for your bass lines. (as seen on TV!)
Grab the 7 Formulas Cheat Sheet: bassbuzz.com/go/blues-box
In my last beginner blues bass lesson I showed you how to survive a 12 bar blues using two simple shapes. You can check that out here if you missed it - youtu.be/tiloGr59WOg
In this video Iāll show you how to take the shapes concept to the next level using The Blues Box to create tons of kickass blues bass lines.
The blues box is just 4 notes that form the shape of a box on your fretboard (hence the name). By changing the rhythm and order of notes, you can pull tons of bass lines that work great for blues and many other styles.
After I teach you how to play the Blues Box, weāll put it in action with some killer real-life blues tunes, from Susan Tedeschi, Eric Clapton, Otis Redding, Junior Walker, Taj Mahal, and Gary Moore.
Then Iāll take you through a simple 4-step process you can use to come up with your own Blues Box bass lines on a 12 bar blues, plus some tips for applying them in context without making your bandleader furious.
