Truefire Stu Hamm's Take 5: Walking Bass TUTORiAL
Learn How To Create Walking Bass Lines
Learning how to craft walking bass lines is not only essential for bassists, but it's also the quickest way to learn how to recognize the underlying harmony of any tune or progression, particularly if you're playing jazz or blues. Combining the harmonic structure of the tune with melodic direction and an appropriate rhythmic feel is the key to creating great walking bass lines.

In this Walking Bass edition of Take 5 from Stu Hamm, you'll be guided through an accelerated curriculum designed to give your walking bass chops a solid platform to build upon.

”I'll kick off this edition of Take 5 with a short primer where we'll talk about key concepts and approaches for creating and playing walking bass lines.

Then I'll guide you through five Walking Bass studies, taking you from the very basics to more sophisticated and challenging approaches. I'll play each bass line over a rhythm track for you, and then I'll break it down, pointing out all the details to help you take YOUR walking bass game to the next level.”

Throughout the course, Stu will guide you through key walking bass concepts, like proper left hand grips to walk and outline different kinds of chords, shape the harmony, use approach notes, chromaticism, rhythmic embellishments, tone shaping, and more.

You'll get standard notation and tabs for all of the performance studies. Plus, you'll be able to use TrueFire's learning tools to sync the tab and notation to the video lesson. You can also loop or slow down the videos so that you can work with the lessons at your own pace. All of the backing tracks are included to work with on your own as well.

Grab your bass and let's dig in with Stu Hamm!
