My name is Ezra and although I am new to this forum, I have several of your programs. All are good and informative. I am a basses and have taken the concept of guitar chord progression (as applied to the 6-string guitar) and have applied it to the (5 & 6) -string bass guitar.
The application of the concept is working well, as I am not only now know what they are playing (i.e. m7add13; Madd6; 13: etc), but I am also beginning to understand what progression [within the immediate scale] comes next and where it should be.
That leads me to this question? As an example: in the key of "C" ("c" being the first degree on the A-string, 3rd fret); the "D or 2nd degree" on the A-string, 5th fret; "E or 3rd degree" on the A-string, 7th fret; F or 4th degree on the E-string 1st fret; G or 5th degree on the E-string 3rd fret and A or 6th degree on the E-string and 5th fret) when chord progression occur above the root of the scale, how do I determine the pattern? Dose the pattern on the D and G string (playing arpeggio) follow the pattern on the A-string, when playing progressions on the D-string, dose the A-string pattern now become the same as the F, G & A on the E-string? How should I approach this?
