Thanks to @swagner89 for pointing it out. __________________ WATCH ME NEXT __________________ The ‘Instant Bass Line Formula’ that guarantees the ‘core’ ideas for your bass lines will sound great:    • Bass Lines In Minutes - A 'Plug-And-Play' ...   See how Paul McCartney uses the 3-fret rule throughout his career:    • I Learned 227 Beatles Bass Lines And Disco...   __________________ There’s a ‘trick’ that just about every bassist uses that takes their bass lines from ‘OK’ (or even ‘meh’) to extraordinary. And the best part? You don’t need an encyclopaedic knowledge of music theory or even to know your fretboard that well. To use this ‘trick’, you only need 3 frets, but those 3 frets can make a MASSIVE change to your bass lines. In fact, this technique isn’t truly a ‘trick’; it’s more like an essential component of the language of playing bass. It’s just that this particular piece of the language is super easy to start using, and it can make a huge difference to how your bass lines sound. The 7 lines in today’s video from artists like Paul McCartney, Nate Watts and Metallica show just how common it is. You may even start using this trick yourself and notice it in tons of other bass lines as well. As soon as you know what it is, it’ll start jumping out at you. Good luck with the lesson and happy playing! Cheers, Luke #becomeabassist #basslesson
