BassNav - Discover Your Fretboard

Discover your fretboard, build your basslines and bring light in to the dark parts of your fretboard.

Bassnav is the app that will answer all your questions concerning your fretboard: Where? What? How?

The lexicon: Bassnav can find everything for you. Notes, Scales, Pentatonics, Arpeggios and Chords in every part of your fretboard. Doesnt matter if you´re playing 4, 5 or 6 strings.

During more than 25 years of teaching bass I learned about the daily struggle alot of players go through finding the right notes on their fretboard and combining them in a satisfying way. These are the most common questions:

Where can i find a particular note on my fretboard?

Are the other ways to play this note?

Other positions on my fretboard?

How do I accompany a certain chord?

Major 7-Arpeggio? Whats that?

Are there alternatives?

How do i play a certain scale in a particular part of my fretboard?

I can only play a C-major scale in one position! How can i play it all over my fretboard?

How can I play this scale/pentatonic when I change the position on my fretboard?

And the most important question: How do I build my OWN bass-lines?

For all these purposes I developed BassNav!

The lexicon: Bassnav can find everything for you. Notes, Scales, Pentatonics, Arpeggios and Chords in every part of your fretboard. Doesnt matter if you´re playing 4, 5 or 6 strings. BassNav isnt just a normal lexicon for notes, intervals, pentatonics, scales, arpeggios and chords that you could play on your bass. Bassnav helps you in every typical cenario that you could be facing in your daily routine.
