B Power (5) on Bass (5-String)

Root first, then the colors: every B Power (5) tone placed on the BEADG neck, ready to walk.

B Power (5) chord diagram, starting at fret 1. Strings low to high: B open, E 2nd fret, A 2nd fret, D muted, G muted.

B Power (5) spells B – F#. A bassline treats those notes as a hierarchy — root first for gravity, fifth for stability, then the third and any extensions for color — and the shapes below put each of them under your fingers on the Bass (5-String)'s BEADG strings.

Full chords are optional equipment on bass: down low, stacked thirds turn to mud, so the grips that work keep two or three notes — root-fifth, root-tenth, shell voicings — and the arpeggio is how the rest of the chord becomes a line. The 5-string layout adds a low B to the standard EADG core, so the same shapes reach further without shifting.

Start from the root, play the arpeggio until the sound of B Power (5) is in your ears, then loop it against the progressions in B so the tones become choices instead of charts.
