In this video, I play and teach you walking bass lines for a Texas Blues. Learn Boogie walking bass, shuffle groove lines, and other walking techniques to play in the Texas style. Texas Blues was made famous by players such as Stevie Ray Vaughan, and a heavier style walking bass line is needed here.
The video has four walking bass exercises and a 12-bar Blues backing track for you to jam to.
This bass video tutorial is suitable for absolute beginner bass players through to intermediate bassists.
You may want to check out my 'Bass Beginner Series'. The lessons in the series cover lots of topics for beginners, with tips on bass techniques, scales, arpeggios, pentatonic scales, and learning to read music.

Here's a lesson showing Tommy Shannon's bass line on SVR's Texas Flood...
th-cam.com/video/qMcGhUysokM/w-d-xo.html
Tommy Shannon ! Oh, my Greg! He is really the perfect blues rock shuffle guy! I never met Tommy, but did meet and talk to SRV on two separate occasions .
@@anthonycook4297 I bet that was really interesting. Tommy Shannon was a newer find for me about 4 years ago but he’s me of my favourites now for Blues - ticks all the boxes for me!
@@GregsBassShedcan’t you play the 1, 8, flat7, 5….for that song? I use that or a 1,5, flat7,5…or 1, 8, flat7, 8…I’m a beginner Bass player switching from guitar and I use that I would guess be called a blues box variety of those different notes a lot. I don’t see any lessons doing that. Why? I am self taught that might explain something…lol.
@@2007vwbeetle yes you can play that pattern too. It works well for Blues. But this lesson was inspired by the ‘Pride & Joy’ Tommy Shannon bass line which uses the patterns I showed in this lesson. Remember that you don’t have to use all the patterns in every bass line.
@@GregsBassShed Thanks learning a lot from your lessons. Just being self taught I have certain patterns and shapes I am use to using and maybe stuck in them. Not sure if that is a good or bad thing…lol.
I like the way this video started. Playing...just playing to give us a sample. So many other websites start with advertisements by the site owner about "what's coming up." Get to the point. Good video. Thanks for teaching us.
Thanks Eric, glad you like the lesson. I try to keep it to the point!
Love it love it LOVE IT !!!! THANKYOU.
Cheers Gary!
Another great lesson Greg.....Blues/Walking lines have always been my favourite studies on Bass, thankyou.
No problem Bob. I am currently making a video course which will hopefully be a comprehensive resource for playing Blues bass. I hope to have a up for sale by Christmas.
Whoooo, proper rockin’ blues!!
Great lesson Greg...top notch.
Cheers Bryn. Great bass line isn’t it!
Another excellent lesson Greg. Exercise 3 is a pattern I need to learn and add to my blues tool kit
More Fun Stuff! Thanks, Greg!
no problem Ted, enjoy!
thx man ... exactly what i need to know right now 🙂
Just got to reiterate the compliment....a nother great lesson, simplifying what can seem complicated at times. Thank you. JC
Thanks JC, I always appreciate the feedback as I know whether I am hitting the mark or not. Glad you like the lesson.
Great vid Greg as alway, bought u a PP coffee , but can leave message via that way. Really enjoy when you demonstraight on the upright bass, adds a different dimension to the role of the bassplayer in a band.many thanks

Just came across this lesson and was very impressed. I've subd and liked the vid as it's one of the best I've come across.
I've played bass for 30 years but still learnt something from this. Look forward to exploring more of your channel and in particular the blues. Cheers
Mr Bungle hi, thanks for your comment. I’m really glad you liked the video. This one was an enjoyable lesson to make. Hope you like all the other ones!

Another solid gold lesson - Thank you Greg. Someone has commented about the number of views increasing. Can I just say I think the reason is because the lessons are so good and varied and provide everyone, whatever their level, with something they can utilise.
Purple Bass thanks, online educating has been a learning curve for me too, so I’m glad I am hitting the mark more of late.
Awesome lesson Greg........
Thanks, glad you like it.
What do u use for backing tracks??
I used a couple of friends to make the backing track for this lesson.
That's the brilliant work of Nick Kendall on guitars:

Hey Greg, very nice lesson. I was a student of yours about six months ago when you were sitting in ofr another instructor. Great to discover all of your work
Cheers! Welcome to the shed!
What’s your name by the way and I can’t work out who you are by your TH-cam handle!
Just found your channel thanks for the lesson also subscribed
Thanks Paul, welcome aboard!
I really really like your Bass teaching style! Thank you for your lessons. I just discovered your channel. I want to try out your great sounding Texas blues walking bass lines this next week & download the pdf. I'm very excited to try out these lines on my Fender JazzBass an/or Gibson Thunderbird Bass!
Great that you’ve found the channel Laurel. Good choice of basses to play this bass line on too 👍
I'm a new subscriber.
Nice! Let me know if you need any help.
@@GregsBassShed Thanks. Im new to bass, but I've been trying to play guitar for 15 years.
Try adding the 13th fret for that " outside" jazzy sound.
Good video well explained and nice tone. Thank you
Thanks very much John.
Your awesome bro 😎 🙌 thank you for the free when I get ahold of some money I'll buy you that cup of coffee my friend you've helped me so much in such a short period of time
No problem Brian, thanks for letting me know and it makes me happy to hear that I’m helping you with your bass playing. That’s why I spend the time on these videos.
@@GregsBassShed my band I've been in for 20 years on a break I've been playing these years by ear now I'm trying to learn , trying to balance the two is tough
@@bugs4680 yeah I appreciate that it’s hard to learn the theory side of music if you have just played by ear. Hopefully I am making it easy to understand though! It’s so worth learning in the long run.
@@GregsBassShed you are teaching me that Greg,so 🙏
@@bugs4680 👍
👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👍🏻
Thank you for the very useful lesson and properly edited scores. I was looking for lesson 98 on walking bess but couldn'd find it on your channel. Any link ?
Glad it was helpful!
Is it this lesson that you are looking for?
th-cam.com/video/svmLmfzibDs/w-d-xo.html
I found lesson No 98 here th-cam.com/video/UQnlFfZUwyE/w-d-xo.html very useful too
😊👍🍀🎶 🙇♂️
Thanks 🙏
Greg,you seem to be getting more "views" since you've been linked to the "Bass transcriptions and lessons" site,which is a good thing
Thanks Jon, yeah I'm getting more views of late, so maybe that's the reason.
@@GregsBassShed Good to see/hear.Did you manage to watch that Roger Waters "zoom" type 2020 video of "Mother "?
Great lesson but keep requesting the PDF and it never comes........
Hi Fred, that's strange. Have you checked your junk folder? If it is not in there, then you can get in touch with me via the Contact Page of gbshed.com and I will send it manually to you. There may be a problem with the automation for that PDF, but I checked, and it looks like it was sent to you.
Tried twice but download never came.
Hi Rich if you've checked your junk folder and it's not in there then send me a private message via the website with your email address and I will send it directly to you:
www.gbshed.com/contact
Couldn’t find the pdf
Hi Kirk, here's the link:

If that doesn't work then get in touch via the GBS website and I'll send it to you directly:

how about tabs for this lesson
There are Tabs. There’s a link under the video.
Let me know if you can’t find the link.
💜🙏💜🇿🇦💜
Thanks! 🙏🎸
Never could understand Texas accent.
That A-Bb-B turnaround is so tired and worn out, I would play almost anything instead.
That’s interesting Frank. You say it’s ‘tired and worn out’ and I say it’s a classic.
That’s what I love about music - it’s so personal in regards to what each individual likes.
My advice to you would be that if you’re not feeling it then don’t play it!
