Alternate
fingerings for blues scale form 3
Because of the way that the notes fall on the neck of the electric
bass, there are a few different ways that you can finger blues
scale form 3. Which one you use really depends on where you came
from, and where you are going. All of them are valid ways to play
the scale in different situations.
Here is the way that was listed on the previous page.
|--1--|--2--|--3--|-----|-----|
|--1--|-----|-----|--4--|-----|
|--1--|-----|-----|--4--|-----|

8th fret
This fingering is common if you are going up in the scale. It
is more awkward coming back down.
