Video Transcript

"In this lick, I'm going to use a blues pentatonic bass lick and utilizing pinch harmonics. Basically, the lick's going to be played like this. And so, what I'm doing there is I'm doing a pull off on the high E string from the eighth fret to the fifth. And then same on the B string and bending up and using my little pinch harmonic technique. And then coming after that, sliding on the seventh or, I'm sorry, pulling off on the seventh to the fifth where I go. And so, and also using a little vibrato to give it a nice effect. So, basically, I'm going. So instead of just going, you know, where you're just basically playing the notes and not using any effects, it's a nice little effect you can throw in your licks to simply go."
