Play Scales More Melodically with this Jaco Lick

Still struggling to turn scales into actual music? This Jaco Pastorius bass lick might help everything finally click.

Yet another gem from Jaco’s “Modern Electric Bass” video with Jerry Jemmott, this lick has some really clear and tasty examples of how to create tension and release in a scale.

When we first learn scales, it’s kinda like having a vocabulary list but not knowing which words are nouns, verbs, or adjectives. Studying these patterns of tension and release will help get you more fluent in a scale so you can actually have fun and express yourself!
