L82 Funky Am bassline with fill
Add to favorites Bass lick of the day:
Funky Am bassline, with fill .
In the fill im playing the E minor pentatonic scale with added chromatic notes over an A minor tonality.
Try it, will revive your pentatonic vocabulary – Em over Am or put another way: play the minor pentatonic scale a fifth (E) above your rootnote (A)
Want the transcription + TAB for this bass lick?

Hi MarloweDK
I’m french, so i hope you will pardon me for my really bad english. Just to say: you are the teach that i should have since the beginning. I ike this groove with fingers or thumb, it’s excellent.
I try to work with the video but i’d like to get tab for a lot of lessons. For this reason, i donate 25 dollars by hoping to receive a link to donwload them, but nothing since 01/22/2010.
Could you, please, check if it’s OK?
Merci beaucoup

Hey Thomas,
Thank you for this lick and for this web site. I’m a big fan of yours not just for your amazing talent but also for your selfless kindness in sharing. I’m working on this one and almost have it down, but I wish I had the talent to create stuff like this on my own. Not there yet, but you are helping me tremendously in my journey. Bless you man!
Tom

Man this is a great riff, i’ve been trying to nail it and add more too it, because I really like the feel of it. I “thought” I had the fill down but it turns out its a little different, imma keep working on it but through and through it sounded pretty funky.

Shout box
: I dont know the song so i wouldnt know;-) But in general you need to be really good to play busy
: just heard the bassline to Gene Chandler's "Groovy Situation" Grooving bassline! My question is...Do you think it's too busy and would play something that busy in your band. I totally dig it but I imagine some people may think it is overdone. I'd like to read your thoughts. Keep up the great work!
: Thx Tonari, it was also a great experience to do
: Hi, Marlowe! I found on Youtube many recordings from Talkshowet Meyerheim, and in every video you are playing so cool lines. You are the best!
: Relatively low but without too much fretbuzz
: No I dont think so, sorry
: Hi Marlowe. What action height do you recommend for slapping on jazz bass (I know action is a VERY subjective matter) but anyway... thanks a lot. Lots of respect to you!
: Hi Marlowe, Is the You Play Along site going to be back up at all?
: Lots of licks in Major, just transpose to F, on bass its easy. Search the site for Major
: Marlowe, Do you have a lick in F major (on your site) that would sound 'right at around 134 BPMs? Thank you for your great work. Just joined the site.
