Beginner Blues Bass "Survival Shapes” (Simple Method for 12 Bar Blues)

I just love playing around with this… Play tonic, 3rd, 5th, tonic: then tonic, tonic; then tonic, 3rd; then tonic 5th; then tonic, 3rd, 5th, 7th… so many different ways to makes this sound cool with just about any song in any key.

Thank you @JoshFossgreen

P.S. I wasn’t ready for this when you posted it a year ago, but now it fits right in with where I’m at with my bass playing.
