Summary of This Method
Designed as a reference work, this method by Gilles Malapert offers a clear progression to develop the essential foundations of the bassist, then transform them into musical reflexes through guided exercises and playbacks. It covers bass tuning, right-hand/left-hand coordination, as well as the two essential playing approaches: fingerstyle and pick. The goal is to consolidate precision, consistency, and tone while maintaining a "field" logic oriented towards groove.
The rhythmic content emphasizes basic figures and their combinations to gain stability and fluidity in transitions. On the harmony side, the method explores major, minor, and pentatonic scales, with direct application on the fretboard to build effective bass lines. All of this is part of The Complete Electric Guitars Concept applied to bass, with a practical approach immediately usable both in a band and in the studio.
Throughout the 100 lines, you traverse the codes of rock, metal, blues, funk, and reggae, drawing inspiration from numerous "standards" and references: Sting, Metallica, Pink Floyd, Guns n' Roses, ZZ Top, Jaco Pastorius, Dire Straits, Red Hot Chili Peppers, RATM, Paul McCartney, Mark King, Robert Trujillo, Les Claypool, Tommy Shannon, Nathan East, Duck Dunn, Jack Bruce, Marcus Miller, Roscoe Beck, Alain Caron, Steve Harris, Bob Marley... An ideal method to enrich your vocabulary, strengthen your sense of tempo, and build lines that are more solid, musical, and stylistically distinctive.
