Bass Lessons - Warm - Up/ Hand Coordination Exercise bass tab
This is my Warm - Up/ Hand Coordination Exercise. This is great
for finger coordination on both hands.
Start off easy going
G|-------------------------1-2-3-4-|
D|-----------------1-2-3-4---------| And then back down
A|---------1-2-3-4-----------------|
E|-1-2-3-4-------------------------|
Then do
G|-------------------------2-3-4-1-|
D|-----------------2-3-4-1---------| And back down again
A|---------2-3-4-1-----------------|
E|-2-3-4-1-------------------------|
Then
G|-------------------------3-4-1-2-|
D|-----------------3-4-1-2---------| and back down of course
A|---------3-4-1-2-----------------|
E|-3-4-1-2-------------------------|
Then
G|-------------------------4-1-2-3-|
D|-----------------4-1-2-3---------| back downn...
A|---------4-1-2-3-----------------|
E|-4-1-2-3-------------------------|
Then do them backwards!
G|-------------------------4-3-2-1-|
D|-----------------4-3-2-1---------|
A|---------4-3-2-1-----------------| bring it on back homeee
E|-4-3-2-1-------------------------|
Basicly mimic what you did before but doing it backwards
G|-------------------------3-2-1-4-|
D|-----------------3-2-1-4---------|
A|---------3-2-1-4-----------------| do I really have to say it again?
E|-3-2-1-4-------------------------|
And
G|-------------------------2-1-4-3-|
D|-----------------2-1-4-3---------|
A|---------2-1-4-3-----------------|
E|-2-1-4-3-------------------------|
and
G|-------------------------1-4-3-2-|
D|-----------------1-4-3-2---------|
A|---------1-4-3-2-----------------|
E|-1-4-3-2-------------------------|
Then do this
G|-------------------------2-1-3-4-|
D|-----------------2-1-3-4---------|
A|---------2-1-3-4-----------------|
E|-2-1-3-4-------------------------|
and
G|-------------------------3-4-2-1-|
D|-----------------3-4-2-1---------|
A|---------3-4-2-1-----------------|
E|-3-4-2-1-------------------------|
Then if you want to get use to other places on the fretboard, take
this same thing and play it somewhere else like...
G|-------------------------------------15-16-17-18-|
D|-------------------------15-16-17-18-------------|
A|-------------15-16-17-18-------------------------|
E|-15-16-17-18-------------------------------------|
And so on and soforth. Try going faster and faster on each one.
