INTRO
This book contains a complete reference to playing a standard-tuned bass
guitar.
It contains detailed key-by-key information, an exhaustive library of chords,
and comprehensive scales for soloing. The book is intended as a quick
reference for a wide range of players. It can be used to help learn chords, to
practice soloing, or to write complete songs.
CHORD AND SCALE DIAGRAMS
Most of the chord and scale diagrams in this book are shown as a full
fretboard, with all notes marked. For example, the chord of A major looks
like:

The different notes in the scale or chord are marked with different symbols.
The root note is marked in red, with the R symbol, for example.
To play a bass part under a chord, you can play any of these notes, and it
will be guaranteed to work. Alternatively you can play a bass chord by
selecting one note of each kind.
Some scales and chords are also shown on a piano keyboard, for those
occasions where you really need to show the pianist what to do:

BITS OF THE BOOK
The book is arranged in four parts.
The Key Reference consists of twelve double-page spreads, one for each
major key. It is designed to be a one-stop shop for playing in any key, giving
a chord reference for each chord, scales and important scale variations, and
songwriting aids.

The Chord Reference is a catalog of the most important chords for each of
the twelve root notes. If you need to find an unusual or exotic chord, you'll
find it here.
The Scale Reference is just like the Chord Reference, but gives complete
scales. It contains a wide range of unusual scales that can be used to give
original solos.
The final section of the book has a series of useful summary charts. There is
a quick-glance voicing chart and a table showing the scales that work over
different chords.
THE KEY REFERENCE
The key reference is designed to give you all the information you need to
play in one key. There are copies of the reference for each root note.
On the left hand page are the major and minor scale references. There are
also chord references for each of the chords in the key.
On the right are a set of more exotic scales for the same root, including
pentatonic and different minor scales.
Underneath the scales is a chord map. This is designed to help you write
songs in the key, or improvise for a while. The top half of the chord map
shows the six chords in the major key. The arrows show which chords
naturally flow from one another. Start at the red root chord, then jump
anywhere else in the map. Finally follow the arrows back to the red root
chord. Arrows with a filled arrowhead are more common transitions.
Under each chord, the map tells you which other keys the chord can be
found in. You can use this to change key, simply look up the new key and
pick up the chord in that chord map.
The bottom part of the chord contains the relative minor or major chord for
each of the six. Following the downwards arrows gives an unusual effect to
the song, but it also makes it harder to get back to the root note. Normally
you'd do this only when you want to change key.
The final part of the key reference gives you another way of changing keys.
It gives you a simple sounding chord progression to take you from one key
to another. The smoothest modulations between all sets of keys are given.
Some combinations of keys can't be reached directly without major to minor
chord changes. For each of these the chart also suggests intermediate keys
you can pass through if you don't like the sound of major to minor
transitions.

FINDING OUT MORE
There are lots of things you can do with the charts in this book. The fretfarm
website (www.fretfarm.com) has a whole set of different tutorials that show
you how to get the most out of the chord diagrams, song writing charts,
modulations and capo references.
ABOUT THE BOOK
Fret farm was originally created because no chord reference or scale book
was available with the right information. Created for our own use, it proved
so popular, we decided to make it public.
We create the books with the help of a custom-written software suite. The
software understands the structure of music and the structure of your
instrument. By changing the specification of the instrument, the software will
automatically adjust chord diagrams, scales and voicings.
We then prepare the book from these diagrams, doing the layout and
compositing. At each stage clarity is the most important concern: getting all
the information you need on one spread, understandable at a glance (once
you know what you're looking at, of course).
