How to Play Octave Slides On Bass: Essential Rock Technique
In this lesson, we take a look at octave slides and how they can intensify our rock and roll bass playing! We’ll practice playing a root note in the lower register of the bass and then slide up to play the octave on the adjacent string.
This is a great way to work on your fretboard knowledge and will add a deeper tone and dynamic movement to any bass line!
