This is the Aminor pentatonic scale 1st position on a 4 string
ebass (normal tuning: E6, A5, D4, G3 strings). - It’s a good

the index (i, indice) and middle finger (m, medio). Alternate
between them. - Check the finger label jpg for finger names for
left and right hand - In the left hand, all the 5th frets are

playing the second note on that string. I.e. on the E6 string we
have 5th and 8th fret. leave the 1st on 5 when playing the 8th
with your 4th finger. - Always practice with a metronome, when
