bartelby Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 My band has a song where there's a bass solo, almost by accident. When we wrote the song the guitarist couldn't come up with anything so I would just noodle about to mark out that section of the song. Unfortunately it stuck like that, so now I just improvise something each time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassist_lewis Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 here's one of the master's of solo bass and music ("The Music Lesson", buy it). I do a solo on one song with a pop/rock band and I used play lots of pentatonics but it just sounded like s**t. I think less is more with solos (especially bass solos) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2U2cOVgaKBM&feature=g-vrec&context=G20a9221RVAAAAAAAAAA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
