As a teacher - especially online - you don't always know what bass players want to learn. You can make a very good educated guess but sometimes you get a surprise.
I recently produced a lesson on bass chords and it was really popular. Which is funny because bass players really don't use chords much at all. However, they are useful to teach you harmony, composition, and to strengthen your ear.
So make sure you watch that bass chord lesson:
For ease, though, I've included the PDF from that lesson below - scroll down below the video.
This latest bass lesson will show you how to use some of those shapes to craft three creative chord progressions.
In the lesson, I use a TC Electronic Ditto looper pedal to play the chords in and then solo over the top. I'll do a lesson soon on how to do that so stay tuned (subscribing to my YouTube channel or signing up to my free newsletter is the easiest way to keep up with my free lessons).
