So here's the [Ab] basic shout bass line which will be playing in E.
Most [F] places I think you'll find this played in E flat, but we're going for E this time around.
[B] So we're [E] starting with our little finger on E on [B]
the 1, 2, 3, 3rd string.
And this is the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, [E] 6, 7th fret.
There's our starting note.
Then we're going to go down with our 1st finger on the 4th fret.
[Ab]
And from there we're going to walk up and play each finger [A] on [Bbm]
[B] the 4th string.
Then we're going to scoot over to the 3rd string and walk up again.
[Db]
1st, [D] 2nd, [Eb] 3rd, [E]
4th fingers and we're back to where we started.
[Em] So that sounds like [E] this.
[A] [Bb] [B] [Db]
[D] [Eb] [E]
[A] [Bb] [Db]
[Eb] [E]
[A] [Bb] [Db]
[D] [Eb] [E]
It's a good exercise for just using all your fingers and also for alternating your picking [Eb] fingers.
So if you look over here, I'm just [E]
going
[Ab] [A] [Bb] [B]
[Db] [Eb] [E]
[A] [Bbm] [B]
[D] [E]
[B] and once you get that under your fingers, we'll be playing it [Gbm] a lot [Db] faster.
Something like this here.
[A]
[Dbm] [Db]
[Dbm]
[D] [E]
[Bbm] [Abm]
[Ab] [E]
[Db]
[A] [Dbm]
[Db] [Abm]
[B] [Dbm]
[D] [Dbm]
[Abm]
[Db] [Em]
[B] [Dbm]
[E]
[G] And kind of what I was doing there toward the [Db] end, [E] here's your E note.
That's your home base for this particular sequence.
[Db]
You've got your octave right there.
E, E.
So you can start your [Bbm] pattern [E] up here as well.
[Bbm] [D] [E] So you've got these series of 4 frets on these 2 strings.
[Gb] And also up here, same notes.
[Ab]
[Bbm] [B] [Db] [Eb]
[E] So if you string them all together, you could [Ab] go
[Eb]
[Db]
[Ebm] [E]
[A] [B]
[D] [Gb] [D]
[Eb] [Db] [D]
[E] [Db] [E]
[Gb]
Anyway, that is your [F] basic shout fingering.
Work on that and we'll see where it gets you.
Let's just look at what we're doing here, theory-wise.
[E] We're in E.
Here's our E major scale.
E, [Gb]
F sharp, [Ab] G sharp,
[A] A, [B] B, [Db] C sharp, [Ebm]
D sharp, [E] and E again.
1, [Gbm] 2, [A] 3, 4, [Db] 5, 6, [E] 7, 1.
[B] So in this shout sequence, this pattern, we're [E] playing our root note, and then we're [Ab] jumping to the 3rd right there, the major [Ab] 3rd.
From there we're going to [A] the 4, [Bbm] flat 5, [B]
5, [Db] 6, [Dm] flat 7, [Eb] 7, [Em] and the root, the 1.
So we're basically [B] outlining an E major [E] chord, or E dominant.
[B] It's got all those passing [E] tones in there.
[A] [Db]
[Em] [E] And how we're playing it is we're starting on the root, and we're dropping [Ab] down to that 3rd.
Here's our octave once again.
[E] [B]
[E] Same notes, just a little bit lower in pitch.
So
[Gb] [E]
[B] [E]
that's what we're doing.
[D] Just playing a chord, E.
[Bbm] [E]
[A]
Most [F] places I think you'll find this played in E flat, but we're going for E this time around.
[B] So we're [E] starting with our little finger on E on [B]
the 1, 2, 3, 3rd string.
And this is the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, [E] 6, 7th fret.
There's our starting note.
Then we're going to go down with our 1st finger on the 4th fret.
[Ab]
And from there we're going to walk up and play each finger [A] on [Bbm]
[B] the 4th string.
Then we're going to scoot over to the 3rd string and walk up again.
[Db]
1st, [D] 2nd, [Eb] 3rd, [E]
4th fingers and we're back to where we started.
[Em] So that sounds like [E] this.
[A] [Bb] [B] [Db]
[D] [Eb] [E]
[A] [Bb] [Db]
[Eb] [E]
[A] [Bb] [Db]
[D] [Eb] [E]
It's a good exercise for just using all your fingers and also for alternating your picking [Eb] fingers.
So if you look over here, I'm just [E]
going
[Ab] [A] [Bb] [B]
[Db] [Eb] [E]
[A] [Bbm] [B]
[D] [E]
[B] and once you get that under your fingers, we'll be playing it [Gbm] a lot [Db] faster.
Something like this here.
[A]
[Dbm] [Db]
[Dbm]
[D] [E]
[Bbm] [Abm]
[Ab] [E]
[Db]
[A] [Dbm]
[Db] [Abm]
[B] [Dbm]
[D] [Dbm]
[Abm]
[Db] [Em]
[B] [Dbm]
[E]
[G] And kind of what I was doing there toward the [Db] end, [E] here's your E note.
That's your home base for this particular sequence.
[Db]
You've got your octave right there.
E, E.
So you can start your [Bbm] pattern [E] up here as well.
[Bbm] [D] [E] So you've got these series of 4 frets on these 2 strings.
[Gb] And also up here, same notes.
[Ab]
[Bbm] [B] [Db] [Eb]
[E] So if you string them all together, you could [Ab] go
[Eb]
[Db]
[Ebm] [E]
[A] [B]
[D] [Gb] [D]
[Eb] [Db] [D]
[E] [Db] [E]
[Gb]
Anyway, that is your [F] basic shout fingering.
Work on that and we'll see where it gets you.
Let's just look at what we're doing here, theory-wise.
[E] We're in E.
Here's our E major scale.
E, [Gb]
F sharp, [Ab] G sharp,
[A] A, [B] B, [Db] C sharp, [Ebm]
D sharp, [E] and E again.
1, [Gbm] 2, [A] 3, 4, [Db] 5, 6, [E] 7, 1.
[B] So in this shout sequence, this pattern, we're [E] playing our root note, and then we're [Ab] jumping to the 3rd right there, the major [Ab] 3rd.
From there we're going to [A] the 4, [Bbm] flat 5, [B]
5, [Db] 6, [Dm] flat 7, [Eb] 7, [Em] and the root, the 1.
So we're basically [B] outlining an E major [E] chord, or E dominant.
[B] It's got all those passing [E] tones in there.
[A] [Db]

[E] [B]

D sharp, _ [E] and E again.
1, [Gbm] 2, [A] 3, 4, [Db] 5, 6, [E] 7, 1.
_ _ [B] So in this shout sequence, this pattern, we're [E] playing our root note, and then we're [Ab] jumping to the 3rd right there, the major [Ab] 3rd.
_ From there we're going to [A] the 4, _ [Bbm] flat 5, _ [B]

that's what we're doing.
[D] Just playing a chord, E.
