Description: ►► FREE: Get the tabs, notation and practice tracks (including the slowed down versions) for all these soul bass lines →becomeabassist.com/5-soul-bass-lines Soul bass lines are some of the most fun you can have with a plank of wood strapped over your shoulder. And it's always a good idea to have a few ‘go-to’ bass lines whenever someone says, “Play something for me!” or if you’re playing with others and they ask, “So what do you want to play?” You might have a quiver full of funk bass lines, or rock ones - maybe even a few slap licks (for when someone wants the Seinfeld theme…) But if you want to play something that has a soul kind of vibe, but maybe don’t know what you could launch into, I have something that I think you’ll love. Because today, it’s all about the vintage soul bass lines. I don’t know about you, but I freaking love the old-school Stax and Atlantic records. There’s something super magical about them that always seems to put a smile on my face. So in this brand new video, I wanted to share some of my all-time favorite soul bass lines with you (that also happen to be beginner-friendly) You’ll learn: ► Bass lines from titans of the bass world including Duck Dunn, Tommy Cogbill, Bernard Odum (we think) and even more Duck Dunn ► How you can simplify each of the bass lines to make them even more beginner-friendly - without destroying the ‘soul’ of the song (pun absolutely intended) ► My pick for one of the most underrated soul bass lines - and of course it comes from Duck Dunn Of course, the absolute best way to get these soul bass lines into your mind and under your fingers is to practice them, right? I’ve included the tabs and notation on screen, but if you want the tabs, notation AND the practice tracks from this video (including the slowed down practice tracks), you can get them as a FREE download on the site. Just head to this page: becomeabassist.com/5-soul-bass-lines Fill out the form, and I’ll send you everything you need to get started mastering these soul lines Good luck with the lesson and happy playing!
