Jaco Pastorius Bass Guitar Method – First Inversion Triads


If the triads are played with the 3rd of each chord on the bottom, this is called first inversion

The I, IV, and V triads are major; the ii, iii, and vi triads are minor; and the vii triad is diminished.

In the following exercises, we will change the top two notes of both first and second inversions in order to spread them out on the fingerboard better. These exercises will build your hands in addition to training your brain and car. They sound really cool on the bass, as well. In addition to playing them as arpeggios, you should practice playing them as blocked chords, using the thumb and first two fingers to pluck the notes of the chords simultaneously. Make sure you have all three of these exercises down pat before going on to the next one.

Since these exercises cover an entire octave going up and down the neck, playing them in some keys will necessitate playing part of the exercise in a lower register. The most musical and logical way to do this is to change registers at the start of a new tetrachord. Hence, I have written these examples in C and in F, as this will illustrate the shifts you will need to apply to any key.
