Bass Brain
As a bassist-first my brain is hardwired for those symmetrical Perfect 4th intervals, so as soon as I hit the B and high E strings, my patterns completely fall apart.
On the Feb 5 community call, Kyle has already suggested I start by practicing octave shapes to help bridge the gap and break the 4-string mould, which has already been a great starting point.
Just wondering if there's any other former bassists here? Or anyone who struggled with B and high E string patterns? What finally made it click for you? Any specific visual cues or exercises that helped you stop seeing the guitar as just a "bass with two extra mystery strings" lol
Appreciate any tips or "aha!" moments you can share.
Rock On! 🎸
