If you feel stuck playing bass in just one position, this lesson’s for you. I’ll show you how to break out of that box using octave shapes, fingering variations, ear training, and some practical musical examples. We’ll use the E minor scale, but the ideas work with any key—and they’ll help you move around the neck with much more confidence.

The goal here is to get musical with your scales - not just run shapes up and down. Try the exercises with the free PDF and backing track, and work on connecting positions while staying creative.
