Thanks bro.

Was asked today to lay down some lines for a guy recording a cd about local church bands... It has been 10 years since I have even stepped into a studio. Anybody have any help full tips?

I use the chord chart with the lyrics on it. Listen to it then try to hum and sing a line while looking at the chart. Then I picture the fretboard in my head and work the notes out. Might be weird but it works for me.

This is a great help. Thanks guys!

This full stack was bought at a local shop about 10 years ago. I've never seen another one and can't find much info on it. Anyone else familiar with SHS?

Thanks guys this site is a huge help glad I found it. Other than PAC Mans method any other suggestions on memorizing the fretboard?

I'm currently reading Edlys music theory book having a hard time applying it to bass though.

That's all I'm doing guess I'm just bar far enough into it.

That's all I've been working on guess I'm just not far enough into it yet for it to make an impact.

Ok I'm just stuck on 1 3 5 and all my lines just have 3 notes.

That's an idea. So if a song is the key of G. No matter where I play as long as I'm staying in the key of G and using the F# then all will sound good?

I'm stuck. For the life of me I can't seem to create an original bass line to fit a song. I have the chord charts. I know about chords and using 1 3 5 if it's major. Any advice?

I gotcha thanks.

Thanks for the answers fellas. Yea I know I III V triads and to flat the III to get a minor and a that. Guess I really just need to memorize the fretboard. After that I'm hoping that everything will go a lot smoothly. Then I'm going to scales after I can recite the triads from memory. Well see...
