Inside this book are 365 bass scale exercises, one for each day of an entire year. Concepts such as major & minor scales, pentatonic scales, modes, the blues scale, harmonic minor, melodic minor, and music theory are covered throughout the book to help you develop musicianship and musicality.
The goal of this book is to provide a clear path to learning the essential scale patterns needed to make music, one day at a time. With just a few minutes of daily practice, you will unlock the fretboard and be able to use these scales in all 12 keys. The best part is that each week wraps up with a real-world scale application exercise. After spending six days of learning and practicing patterns, Sundays demonstrate how to apply the scales to bass lines or common patterns that can be used to further hone your chops.
