L314 Bass solo ideas using the D Major pentatonic scale
Add to favorites 
Some fresh solo ideas for the good old Major pentatonic scale using larger intervals (4ths and 5ths), to get away from the usual Blues/ Country sound…Not that there’s anything wrong with that!;-)
In the end of the video I’m playing the D Major pentatonic scale straight up and down for reference.
Im playing to a click on 2 & 4

Thanks so much for such a challenging lick! The first time I head it, I knew I had to learn it. After over 30 years of playing, it’s so easy to become complacent, but something about that lick just clicked. It reminded me of the rubbery lines from Jeff Berlin with Bruford or Percy Jones with Brand X. Marlowe, you’re a treasure. Thanks again.

: Hi MDK, Wow waht a great DVD... just spent a few hours learning the first few lessons... great quality and well taught... I'm very pleased with my purchase. If any improvment could be made I would only say could there be a 'repeat' funcion so that you can get a lick to play continually? or what aboutt a not showingthe BPM so that we can use the correct tempo using the drum patterns... overall a wonderful job... I look forward to more downloads in the future.... especially for IPad
