Learn to Play Bass with Metallica

Tapping is a technique that involves playing notes with both hands directly on the neck of the Bass Guitar. It was popularised by virtuosos such as Adam Nitti Stuart Hamm Victor Wooten and Billy Sheehan but has become more and more popular with amateur players for the unique and futuristic sounds it can produce. With Tapping A La Basse you can learn everything necessary to master this cool technique. In four chapters this method will help you learn how to make strange and wonderful sounds with two-handed tapping. The first chapter details linear tapping the second will teach you how to create great riffs and licks with tappedarpeggios the third lets you combine tapping and chords while the fourth and final chapter will reveal polyphonic tapping. While some technical exercises are revealed this method is primarily based on practising ensuring that you master all the techniques through playing them.  The accompanying DVD is a great help in letting you hear and visualise how the tapping should sound and be played. Two different speeds enable you to see how it's done at normal speed then slowed down so you can play along and gradually get to grips with the style. With technical and musical examples within this method you will gain all the details needed to grasp Bass Guitar tapping!

With this method, you will finally learn and especially understand how to use the minor scale (natural) on bass, but also discover all its melodic potential to exploit it at best. After a few essential pages dedicated to theory, you will approach these 12 minor scales - which every bass player must master - in the most coherent and effective way. Thus, for each of them, you will discover on the left page the name and the location of the notes on the neck (22 boxes), as well as the chords on which the scale in question can be played safely. On the right page, as an illustration, you will discover a long bass line that uses this one and only range, accompanied by two recordings (to download), the first for the demonstration and the second for the implementation (playback support). You can then play your turn on this soundtrack not only the example offered, but also any other groove or bass line of your design... from the minor scale in question of course! All the recordings of this method (bass lines and playbacks) can be downloaded for free and very easily by following the instructions provided in the book.

Play-Along Tracks For Developing Your Blues Bass Performnace Skill. Par ROSE FRANK DE. Welcome to the School of the Blues Lesson Series! This book and recording were created to help give you context to all the music you worked so hard to learn. The recorded Play-Along Trax have no bass. This gives you the opportunity to work on your blues bass patterns. I have used several different keys and tempos throughout these Play-Along Trax. These Play-Along Trax give you a very realistic example of how you would play live with a band. Music examples are kept fairly simple to make sure this book is accessible to bass players just above the beginning level. For best understanding of these techniques refer to Mel Bay's Blues Bass, Level 1 (MB21063BCD). Lastly, all the references in this book are written for a right-handed four string electric bass. If you play a 5 string bass you just need to extend the examples to include your B string. If you play left-handed then you need to reverse any references to the left and right hands. We will use standard music notation along with bass tablature (TAB) for this book. / Niveau : Débutant / Blues - Play Along / Tablatures / Guitare Basse Tablatures
