Why Bass Players Love The Key Of E – No Treble
This lesson is here to get you working through the key of E. We’ll dig into two-octave E Major and E minor scales so that you can feel confident working through the most comfortable key on the bass.
There’s definitely a reason why so many funky tunes are written in and for the key of E, so hopefully, this lesson provides some insight into why that is.
Fun fact: it’s probably because we have an awesome-sounding open E string.
Enjoy working through this, and keep it groovy!
