My Favourite Ever Bass Patterns [PENTATONICS – RnB, Soul & Motown]

This is a bass lesson from my RnB, Soul & Motown course.

It's based around a line in the style of one of the greats of bass, Tommy Cogbill. He's relatively unknown but when you consider that he influenced Jaco Pastorius, you know he's no slouch.

The lesson teaches a bass line and then shows you two patterns that are amazing.

Actually, it's a lot more than two as the pentatonic shapes in question contain loads of patterns within patterns.

You play pentatonics all the time as a bass player!

In fact, here are some more lessons you should watch (after this one) to become a pentatonic master:

• Pentatonic Bass Masterclass! (All You Need For Solos, Fills & Bass Lines)
• Creating Bass Lines With The PENTATONIC Scale (Funk/Rock/Soul/Jazz/Pop/Blues)
