Why not work harder when you can work smarter?

Let's face it. We all want to play killer fills and bass solos and one of the biggest obstacles is knowing how to get around the neck and not feeling like you're stuck in one position. Learning the bass fretboard takes time and there is no getting away from putting in the work. Like everything else, why work hard when you can work smart?

After just the first two lessons in the course I guarantee you'll already feel like you know the fretboard at a level you thought would take years. Innovative bass fretboard lessons created by our own Cameron Dougall, like "Th Up and Down Exercise" will challenge you while helping you internalize the notes, scales and patterns that you need to become a Bass Fretboard Master.

Great lesson! Seeing the B-flat major on the E string as an F mixolydian was a helpful hack to play scale up one string.
