Bass Songs for Beginners – Get Lucky – Daft Punk

Bass Songs for Beginners – Get Lucky – Daft Punk –> This song is a great example of taking a simple bass line and adding variation to give it a more complex sound. When learning this song, you should first learn the main notes, and then begin to add your own variation. The bassists for “Get Lucky” is Nathan East – one of the most accomplished bassists of all time. So don’t worry about playing it exactly the way he does. There is a tremendous amount of variation to the bass line – and I’m sure Nathan has probably never played it the same way twice!

The song is played in the key of B minor – view our “Minor Scales Fretboard Diagrams” to see all of the B minor scale notes. The bass line throughout the entire song is played using B, D, Gb, and E. As I mentioned above, work on playing the main notes and then add variations – accents, hammer-ons, fills, etc..

Here’s a tutorial video for “Get Lucky” courtesy of Center Stage Bass. He does a great job of explaining the foundation of the song (B minor scale) and how to add variation.
