How To Play Bass Guitar Scales Under Chords
You Can be just one of two varieties of bassists. The first kind basically plays root notes and a few chords and never really progresses in his bass playing. The second kind learns the right way to properly use bass scales beneath chords and can always come up with fresh thoughts about what to play. Which sort of bass player?
If you play bass guitar you are familiar with trying to play the root note of whichever guitar chord the rest of the band is playing. You also may have learned how to play the triads; or the three notes that comprise the guitar chord the guitar player is playing. Absolutely nothing wrong with learning and using those but they are actually just the building blocks to what really good players do which is to play bass scales beneath chords.
If you are using three note chords,or triads, you're actually playing parts of either a major or a minor scale. These two scales tend to be a good place to start. Be aware that while a piece of music could be in the key of G, once the players shift to the C chord you should be using a C scale, either major or minor, not continue using a G scale. While almost all the notes match, the key to this is to at the very least begin thinking in scales per chord.
If you want it might be easier for you to first learn two simple 5 note scales. They are usually called pentatonic scales. We have a pentatonic major and a pentatonic minor scale. The pentatonic scales will be the three notes that make up the chord plus two additional notes. If the middle note within the chord is a major note you'd be using the major pentatonic scale, if your middle note is a minor note you would be using the minor pentatonic scale. You could also make use of the minor pentatonic scale beneath 7th chords, but I will get into that in a different write-up.
Allow me to provide you an illustration. Your guitar player is using a C major chord. Those notes are C, E, and G. A good pentatonic scale to play below this chord is most likely the major which happens to be C, D, E, G. A. Simply five notes. If your guitar player is using a C minor chord that is C, E flat, and G; you would play the minor pentatonic scale that is C, E flat, F, G, and B flat.
When you have perfected the 2 common pentatonic scales, the next stage in your playing is to master both the entire major scale and the entire minor scale. Each one of these scales will usually be the better choice below certain chords. Just remember that when you play pentatonic scales, it does not matter what key the piece of music is in, only what chord is being used at that moment, which determines what scale you should be using.
Try using these kind of basic scales below chords the next time you perform and you will probably come to discover limitless new options for Your Bass guitar playing.
