Description

This book is the fifth in a series of books written by UK bassist Marek Bero. The Bass Gym books are written to help you develop your playing skills and understanding of theory simultaneously, whilst inspiring your creativity as well.

In this book, you will find 101 exercises which will help you to master the melodic and harmonic minor scales and their modes on a four-string bass. The book also covers some symmetrical scales – the diminished and whole-tone scale. As in the previous books in this series, all exercises are written with a melodic and practical focus for your everyday practice routine. You’ll get to grips with the modes and variations of the melodic and harmonic scales, as well as the diminished and whole-tone scales in all twelve keys. You’ll also play intervals, odd-numbered sequences,
patterns on one, two, three and four strings, diagonal fingerboard movements, and arpeggiated chord inversions. Finally, this book will help you to use all of these elements in different music styles. The exercises in this book are suitable for players of all levels and are perfect warm-ups for your practice routine, or for getting your fingers moving before gigs or recording sessions.

All of the exercises in this book include tablature and recommended fingerings. MP3 files are available to download from Free Stuff page on this website.
