"So, now that we have numbers the scale one through seven what we can do is add in an extra note, or an chromatic note. You can add any of these notes in between, on the frets in between. And when you go through up, what it does is it gives you eight notes so you can walk two full measures of just this one scale and it will sound smooth. One, two, three, four, one, two, three, four, one, two, three, four, one, two three, four, one, two, three, four, one, two, three, four, one, two ,three, four, one, two, three, four, one. Another good way is to just walk A to A doing one measure. One, two, three, four, one, two, three, four, one, two, three, four, one, two, three, four, one. Or if you want to do a funkier thing, you can start on A flat and move around to the different notes within the scale and put some chromatic notes in there too and space it out. So, by moving through and by utilizing these different notes notes within the scale that we've discovered, you can make some hip baselines quick."
