Discover the magic of Duck Dunn's bass style with this beginner-friendly fingerstyle workout. Originally written for the "Giants of Bass" book, this piece celebrates one of the most influential bass players of all time.
🎸 What You'll Learn:
• Chord Tone-Based Lines: all great basslines are built from chord tones, and this one is no exception
• Use of Scale Tones: Duck often used additional scale tones such as the sixth in his lines, and that is reflected here
• Walking Lines: The bassline moves between the chords using simple transition figures. These are typically based on classic walking bass concepts
🎸 Gear Used:
• Bass: Fender Precision Bass
• Strings: Flatwound (.045, .065, .085, .105)
• Recording: Tech21 SansAmp Bass Driver DI
