Wow, you have hit the wrong forum. I haven't a clue. Try one of the more jazz-oriented guest moderators' forums.

if i can chime in....

ed friedland's book 'building walking basslines' is a great resource. takes you through each step from the very beginning.

other than that, listen to people like ray brown, paul chambers, and christian mcbride. write out your own lines, and transcribe your favorites.
