Simple Bass Line Progressions A bass line progression is a progression where the bass note of a chord (“the lowest note played in a chord”) is changing and following a predetermined or predictable pattern. There are two generic types of bass line chord progressions: ascending (the bass line goes higher in pitch) and descending (the bass line goes lower in pitch). The bass line progressions can be pictured as going up or down a small set of stairs. Root Note is Usually the Bass Note One thing to understand first, is when any chord is being played, it’s bass note (or lowest note) is the root note of the chord (unless we are told otherwise). Thus the bass note of a G chord, a Gsus, a Gm7, a Gdim, etc. is a “G” note. If we need to change the bass note of a G major chord to a B, for example, we would write it kind of like a fraction: G/B. We often call these “slash” chords. The Dm7 chord with a C note in the bass would be written ‘Dm7/C’. An A7 with a C# note in the bass would be w...

When you do this, you will have a number of chords that all belong to the same key. In this article, I’ll show you through how to form a family of chords from a scale. By understanding this, you will understand why certain chords work well together in a given key and be able to start to see these families of related chords being used in the music you learn. Lets start by forming triads (three note chords) from a major scale. To make things easy lets use C Major as our scale here. The notes of the C Major scale are as follows: C D E F G A B C Each of the notes of this scale can be used to build a chord on. In order to do this...

Scales Check out this simple instructions for playing guitar scales that I use in playing lead and improv. Don’t forget to check out the link on Tips and Tricks! Major Scales Major Pentatonic Scales Minor Pentatonic Scales Blues Scales Tips and Tricks (including Arpeggios and Sweep Picking) Major Scales Although, I don’t do much lead improv from these scale patterns, it is important to cover these major scale patterns. These are all in the key of G and are movable to other positions for other keys. Practice and learn the shape/pattern of the scale, then move it up and down the fretboard to other keys. “*” Represent the root note. G Major Scale – E String Fret 3 * * * * * e:---------------------------2-3-2--------------------------| B:-----------------------3-5-------5-3----------------------| G:-----------------2-4-5---------------5-4-2----------------| D:-----------2-4-5---------------------------5-...
