L269 C#minor groove

FavoriteLoadingAdd to favorites
A great key for playing minor basslines – you have the thundering minor third (E) in the bottom.
Listen to Freedom by Jimi Hendrix for another example of playing in this key / position.
Almost only minor pentatonic scale notes with the exception of a chromatic note G# between the F# and G# in the first bar and the 6th (A#) in the last bar.
You can also choose to look at the notes as the C#m dorian scale with the 9th omitted

You get it staccato with your right hand fingers. Mute a string immediately with your free finger when you pluck.

soporific: Hi guys!

Harry Popper: hi, GospelBassMan

GospelBassMan: Hello community!!

hank: Will your bass be mass produced? Do you think it will be affordable (relatively speaking) Will it be offered online for us Americans that wanna buy it?

chooty: Thank you very much.

MarloweDK: Im really not into playalongs these days, more fun (and meaningfull for me) to do original music

MarloweDK: My sig bass is going to be released at the Frankfurt musikmesse in midmarch. I dont know anything about price yet

rfarina: Hey MarloweDK! Thanks for all you do! I've gotten into more funk over the last year thanks to your lessons and playalongs. How about a playalong of December 1963 (oh What a Night) by Franki Valli and the Four Seasons?

hank: Hey Marlowe, any words on when your signature bass is being offered on the market? Any idea on the price range? Really excited about it but I've only read one article about it.

Dug: hey thomas! i was hoping to get a tutorial request from you. it from the "funky filter fun" vid you did. i would like a tutorial from the 2:45 part to the end 3:17. i luv this groove. i've learned alot from u here!!!! thanks mdk!!!
