Chord Scales – Part I
Add to favorites This is for the slightly more advanced bass players out there looking to expand their theoretical horizons. This is the first video in a series on the often misunderstood concept of chord scales. No, this won’t make you an amazing bass player, but it should give you some food for thought.
Here’s a “Chord Scale Primer” with instructions for constructing basic diatonic chord scales and a list of all 7 diatonic chord scales in C major.

: Hey Marlowe, I bought the L253 in order toget the backing track. However, there is no backing track without the bass. Is there a way to get this?
: Thanks Marlowe! I guess I better start saving up. I can't wait to get one. I'm positive if I get one then my playing automatically gets funkier right? 
: Hank: my sig bass will be presented at the Frankfurt musik messe in march. I dont know of the price but i guess it will be priced in the same range as Sandbergs California models. There is a couple of american retailers, check Sandbergs site.
: Hi guys!
: hi, GospelBassMan
