From George Urbaszek of www.creativebas... a bass lesson video on how to play and use the E Minor Pentatonic Scale over two octaves on bass guitar. I use Band-in-a-Box from www.pgmusic.com... for the funky backing track.
This guy’s lessons are clear, simple and he doesn’t try to confuse us with a bunch of unnecessary theory we may not want just to sound smart and so we’ll fork over our hard earned cash. Thanks man!!
i play bass for not to long. almost 2 years i think, and now i want to learn much more to upgrade my playing. thank you because of your vids i've learn more. God bless
really man I've been playing bass for 10 yrs and I never took the time to study . . . . . . until 5 months ago . . . but I couldn't do it on my own.. you open up a lot of windows and giving me a better method of studying . . . . . . thanks with blessing . .. . .
thank you sir!! i did not know about this scale but all these time with my band i was jamming this scale and now i am 100% sure about it and will try more on this scale.
Thanks, Nipu. I love your work too. Good job with the cover of Windowpane - nice and relaxed with good concentration and stamina over such a long piece. Kind regards, George
Hello Mick - well observed. The E Minor Pentatonic and the G Major Pentatonic scales have the same notes. If you are familiar with the term Relative Minor, E Minor is the Relative Minor of G Major.
How about E open, third fret on E, A open, second fret on A, D open, second fret on D? I now some people don't use open strings(still don't know why?). By the way thank you for this lesson!
+Gordan Bosic Hello Gordan Thank you for your input. The fingering you suggest is fine ... and I often use open strings. The pattern I use in this video is visually and physically easy to apply over two octaves. In another video I show how, with a slight modification of this pattern, we can use it for all keys. Kind regards, George
