O.k. folks...I'm back and you know I'm all about stuff we can use.

This post is for us to post videos of your favorite runs or riffs.  Specifically I'm looking for Variations of the Major and Minor Pentatonic Scales or blues scales. 

EXPERIENCE SHOULD NOT BE A FACTOR!  The most veteran bass player can learn from a new player because the instrument is as unique as our different personality.  Also you might get a variation of someone elses run  or might get pointers on how to clean it up, invert or extend a run or riff.  This is going to be really useful.

You can use Youtube, Real Player or whatever you recording method is...Just use video!

One more thing cause I'm guilty of this too!  For us Veterans...Please when you post, don't go off on a crazy nasty run and say "See it's easy...all you have to do..." and you go off on this crazy riff.  Break the riff down in slow mo the best you can so we can understand.

This will be fun...  standby for my post and other topics such as scales/modes (extended and closed) and their application, Practice tips for dexterity (see extended fingering), slide techniques to get you up and down the fret board, Feel techiniques, Managing sounds on both your bass and rig, oh...and the next one...CHORDS ON BASS!

This is going to be a permanent post...watch! ;)  You can start right away...I'll post by Sunday night.

Musiq,  I'm sure you have something to add.  This is like a workout...if you workout with someone stronger you get you stronger.  Not saying I won't suck either but you would be amazed how hearing someone else interpretation can spark an idea.  Regardless of skill level...

Looking forward to you post!  I can't wait to post mines.  Might get on his as early as tomorrow night.  I have to re-install camera software.

Here's my first one.  I need to be in bed getting ready for class in the morning but oh well!  I'm bored right now!  It's something easy that I heard D. Wright to but I just changed it a little bit.  I don't know why I'm laughing at the end so tune that out!!!

Well this isn't really a Run per say, but I guess I do have one in there. I'm not the most prolific bass player, but I posted this because I think this topic needs to stay alive, and people need to Bump this topic! Also post vids of their runs and then Break them down!!! I really appreciate you all!

I'm really liking those pull offs you do at the 1:15 mark!!!

Here's a video I have for now.  I've posted this before, but maybe someone didn't seet it before.

No real individual licks.  I came up whats in the video as I was recording.



Somebody put me in the key of E#
