Just the Bits: 16 Walking Bass Building Blocks

Description

Get Your Left Hand Walking, One Bit at a Time

Walking bass becomes easier to practice when you break it into small pieces.

Just the Bits gives you 16 walking bass building blocks you can learn, repeat, and begin putting together at the piano. Bob walks you through the patterns so you can hear how they sound, understand how they move, and practice them with a clear purpose.

Start with one bit. Get comfortable with the notes and rhythm. Then work toward connecting patterns and adding simple right hand chords.

Who It’s For

Pianists who know basic chords and want a practical starting point for walking bass, plus players who want more structure in their left hand practice.

These lessons come from the Jazz Piano Walking Bass System. If you already own the full System, you already have this material.

Pick a bit. Get some repetitions. Keep building.
