AntLockyer Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 I have been a musical fraud for years. Learnings songs, playing the same stuff over and over, not knowing any of the notes on the fret board etc. I decided to change that this week and have started working hard. I'm not instant on the notes yet but I know where they are with a second or so thought. I've been learning the actual notes in scales (and the intervals to make them rather than just learning it parrot fashion) and then applying that to the fretboard rather than just learn a shape (which I didn't really know either). I came home from work, found the chords to a song I liked and gradually built up my own bassline based on the chord notes (not just root and fifths based on shapes). I've got a good book on Scales am going to have a lesson soon and am generally feeling good about it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blademan_98 Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 No matter how much I learn I still feel like a fraud Still, it's all music! Congratulations on taking the next step and I hope you get to grips with it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
