Ever find yourself fumbling or stumbling over notes because of your plucking hand?

Maybe you KNOW that learning to alternate with your index and middle finger will help you play trickier bass lines, but you just can’t seem to make it work for you…

Maybe it’s that your hands just don’t seem to be very coordinated - like the right hand just refuses to talk to the left - AT ALL…

Maybe you’re transitioning from only using a pick and things just feel ‘wrong’ in your hands…

Whatever it is though, today I want to share a super cool workout, specifically designed to level up your plucking hand. We’re going to dig in deep and isolate the plucking hand as much as possible.

This won’t be a super dry, unmusical exercise though, so for every level of the workout, there’s a real-life bass line (including one from Paul McCartney) that you can use to level up your mother-pluckin’ plucking hand.

You’ll learn:

► The idea you can ethically ‘steal’ from drummers to supercharge your plucking hand’s ‘internal’ coordination

► The three ‘levels’ of this right hand coordination workout and three great bass lines that you can use to apply the exercises to make music immediately

►How to start using your index AND middle finger - if you haven’t already - and if you have you’ll learn how to intentionally supercharge your alternating technique so you’ll be ready for even the trickiest of bass lines

By the way, if you’d like all the tabs, notation and tracks that I’m using in this video (even the slower, friendlier practice tracks), you can get them all for free by going to this page:

Just fill out the form under the video and I’ll send everything straight to you and you can be getting in on this workout and playing these bass lines in less than a minute.

When you work on your ‘internal’ plucking hand and make it coordinated within itself, you’ll have a much easier time getting it to work with your fretting hand. Your fretting hand has to have a similar level of internal coordination, but that’s maybe a subject for another day.

But when they work together, everything becomes easier to play, so I really hope you enjoy the workout and I’m sure it can help.

Good luck with the lesson and happy plucking!

Cheers,

Luke
