This piece is a classic rock-themed workout for your plectrum playing. Rock basslines can be great fun to play, particularly if they involve doubling riffs with the guitar, playing fills and moving melodically between chords. All of these elements are present here, making this a great piece to get your teeth into.
🎸 What You'll Learn:
• Riffs: The bass plays an important role in this piece, doubling many of the main riffs with the guitar
• Eighth Note-Based Lines: Rock basslines often feature continuous eighth note basslines, and this piece features a few of these as well
• Melodic Lines: This piece features some simple upper register fills, as well as some ‘walking’ figures that ease the transitions between the chords
🎸 Gear Used:
• Bass: Fender Custom Shop ’67 Precision Bass
• Plectrum: Dunlop Tortex .073mm
• Strings: Rotosound stainless steel (.040, .060, .080, .100)
• Recording: Tech21 SansAmp Bass Driver DI
