Eat Your Greens Rockschool bass debut grade 2012-2018

Don't forget to subscribe to my channel for new lessons on playing tips for all the Rockschool exam pieces and also tips for practicing and what to expect in the exams.

Here is the second piece from the Rockschool 2012-2018 debut grade bass syllabus. This is a Blues piece in the style of bands from the mid to late 60's. It's main focus is on crotchets (quarter notes), minims (half notes) and crossing strings. Remember to try and create a relaxed but solid groove and make sure you mute any open notes that could ring on and make the bass line muddy.

For the recording I used my 2004 Fender Precision bass through a Roland Cube 30 Bass amp and Behringer Ultra DI box into my iMac via a Focusrite Saffire 6 USB interface.
