  • Ghost notes are an essential technique for any bass player looking to add some funk to their bass grooves. But the ghost note technique can be a little tricky to work on when moving between muted and fretted notes.
    In this lesson we're going to use an awesome bass riff example from the Talkingbass 25 Bass Riff Challenge for working on the technique.
    Learn the bass riff from supplied tab and sheet music then play along with the supplied backing track over at the TalkingBass Members Area!!

    The 25 Bass Groove Challenge can be found in the Practice Room!!

    Mark! Speaking of ghost notes... you should check out Vincen Garcia - "aprieta".

    Lean on the string with enough force to mute ( or, deaden ) it , but not enough to press it down and touch any of the frets .Once the string is muted , pluck it with your fretting hand.

    Thanks Mark! Breaking it down the way you do makes it seem achievable!

    You said the fingers in home position are "parallel" to the strings,...but I think what you were going for is "perpendicular." Great tip about muting the E string with the top of the picking hand R thumb!

    Fingers parallel to the strings? Don’t you mean perpendicular to the strings?

    Parallèle aux frettes, pas aux cordes. Not parralel to the strings but to the frettes

    Who cares about the bassline. Just explain to beguiners how to play ghost nites and where to play them. Anyone like myself who can play basslines like that already know how to play ghost or muted notes

    • @talkingbasslessons
      @talkingbasslessons  5 місяців тому

      It’s spelled ‘Beginners’. Not ‘Beguiners’.

      @talkingbasslessons Ah, the only point I can make is pointing out a spelling error reply.
