The C Major Scale on Bass Guitar

In this first free online music lesson, B. B. takes us to the C major scale and explain how all Major scales can be played up and down the fretboard using the same finger pattern.

Below you will find the scale chart for the C Major Scale and sheet music for C Major and G Major Scale. As you can see on the sheet music and as explained on the video, the finger pattern is the same.

The C and the G Major Scales are also played an octave higher, this means that you will be playing the scales twice, getting higher in pitch. To rephrase, you will play : C D E F G A B C D E F G A B and back to C, but this C will be higher up the neck/fretboard.
