【069】Cool E Blues Bassline: Open Strings and Groove

this video features a Blues bassline in the Key of E.

It's an uptempo Blues in 8-beat.

Using open strings on the E and A strings, this bassline sounds cool and powerful. The use of open strings allows for quick transitions from high to low E notes and high to low A notes, adding intensity and a lively feel.

This Blues Bass Line is designed for beginners to practice and level up.

Level 1: Understand the blues progression with a simple Bass Line.

Level 2: Develop the 8-beat groove with right-hand two-finger picking.

Level 3: Add passing notes and syncopation to enhance the groove.

The bass sound uses a drive effect, making it enjoyable even without a guitar.

The drive effect mix is crucial, with a ratio of normal sound 7: drive 3.

The effect used is the Zoom B1 Four (all effects on this channel use the Zoom B1 Four).

I've included tablature in the latter part of the video, so be sure to check it out.
