Day 5 of the New Orleans Funk workshop. One minor pentatonic box shape, Cissy Strut as the starting point, and a full session on turning restriction into vocabulary. This one's for bass players who know a scale shape but freeze up the second they try to improvise with it.

Groove School is about SYSTEMS so that *you* can take agency over your bass playing journey.
