And, a groove like this will be quick to highlight any technique issues you have that need to be focused on and cleaned up. I created this groove lesson for that exact reason. You need to be asking yourself questions such as... ...Am I muting correctly? ...Am I anchoring my thumb or using the floating thumb technique? ...Am I using alternate plucking or the raking technique? ...Am I using rest strokes or free strokes? Your plucking hand is as important as your fretting hand. Too many bass players concentrate solely on their fretting hand; Scales, arpeggios, pentatonics etc. Make sure you're not one of them, as it will hold back your progress as a bass player in a big way. Now grab you're bass and get in the shed! === Video Breakdown: 00:00 – Introduction to String Skipping Challenges 00:24 – Purpose of the String Skipping Groove Exercise 00:55 – Identifying Plucking Hand Technique Issues 01:30 – Muting and Thumb Technique Considerations 02:05 – Plucking Approaches: Alternating, Raking, Strokes 02:40 – Importance of Plucking Hand Development 03:20 – Common Mistakes Bass Players Make 03:55 – Practice Encouragement and Final Thoughts 04:10 – Conclusion === GET MORE BASS TIPS 👇 _________________________________________________________________ 🙌 Be the first to know - SUBSCRIBE now → https://bit.ly/sub-to-sbl-yt 🎧 Tune in to our Weekly PODCAST → https://sblpodcast.buzzsprout.com/share 📱 Try our free GrooveTrainer APP → https://scottsbasslessons.com/groove-...
