Misc - Advanced Standard 12 Bar Blues bass tab

I don't think there is actually a bassline for 12 bar blues, but I took a standard blues

bassline and transcribed it to the guitar chords. You just play this and improvise.

You can get some sweet solos out of this. Just remember to keep your improv. in the right

key.

E A B to A Ending E

G| ------------------------0------- ---------------- ------------

D| --------0-----------2-4---4-2--- --1-4-1-----2--- --------0-2-

A| ----2-4---4-2---0-4-----------4- 2-------0-4---4- ----2-4-----

E| 0-4-----------4----------------- ---------------- 0-4---------

Swing the notes, try playing two to a note. Just make something up.

I usually play it E E A E halfB halfA endingE

Have fun, you can keep the soloing up for hours if you want to. I've rated this advanced

because, despite the fact that the line is easy, soloing and improv. take skill.

Version History

Version 1.0-That took little effort

Version 2.0-A little bit too little effort, so I rewrote it, it's a bit more fun.
