Description:
Unlock the secrets of creating musical, grooving, and expressive walking bass lines on one of jazz’s most iconic tunes. "So What" may look simple on paper—but crafting simple lines that feel alive, fresh, and intentional takes real skill. This book walks you through exactly how to do it.
In this newest volume of Bob Sinicrope’s acclaimed Walking Bass Line Construction series, you’ll get a hands-on, learn-by-doing approach that will be useful for anyone. Beginners get a clear, confidence-building pathway and more experienced players will get a good refresher course on crucial walking bass concepts.
Bass greats Victor Wooten and Rufus Reid, as well as countless educators, endorse Bob’s logical approach for building a rock-solid foundation in walking bass lines. What you learn here will expand your vocabulary, strengthen your groove, and elevate your sound in any musical setting.
Inside You'll Find:
> Progressive walking-bass exercises using approach notes, enclosures, passing tones, forward motion, and more.
> Clear, detailed explanations that show you how to practice, refine your feel, play with spirit, and deepen your groove.
> Backing tracks so you can instantly apply each concept in real musical situations.
> TAB for beginning electric bassists, using a practical range up to high C (first 5 frets).
