BASS GUITAR PACK

EXAMPLES OF MUSICAL STYLES

In this chapter you will find some examples of different styles of music. We will be using tablature here, as this makes it easier for

beginners. Its best to use a metronome so that you can achieve an steady rythm. Please remember to play the notes cleanly, keeping

your left hand relaxed and free of unnecessary strain.

Blues

This standard blues pattern consists of 16 measures and only uses quarter notes.

Fast Rock

This example is made up only of eighth notes and therefore has 8 beats per measure. Picking is therefore twice as fast as in the

previous blues. Reduce the tempo if you have any problems with the speed to begin with.

Shuffle Blues

This is a blues with a ternary rhythm. For further information about this, read the chapter titled RHYTHM. Start with a slow tempo

here too so that you achieve a steady rhythm and get used to the shuffle playing technique. If it doesnt work out straight away, just

play this piece in eighth-note triplets without rests to begin with. Once youve mastered that, you can try leaving out the second note

in each triplet.

Slap Blues

The following blues in E major is played using the slapping technique, which means striking the low notes on the E and A strings with

your thumb (slapping) and plucking the high notes on the D and G strings (popping).
