ok looking back on yesterdays lesson i didn't really give any substance to it so today i will give you a few exercises to show what im talking about. Like i said sometimes you find your self in a finger jam and you get fumbled cause you play a rhythm one way but with other parts of a song it comes out differently. Well i have a few tabs for you my friends.

now keep in mind those are 16th notes so they are quick now take this slow and repeat
and remember the goal is to make sure you alternate pick every note. Now ill be honest with you theres no way a bass player plays alternate picking every note but when your practicing its good to do this so your fingers learn how to do a lick in multiple ways. This is very important in improvised playing so your fingers dont get jammed cause they are used to different patterns.
another great exercise for 16th notes is just stick on a string and mix up 8th notes and 16th notes. it is so simple but effective here it is
