It's what some call "Boogie Bass" and is the basis for blues when you throw in a minor 7th and play different turn around points. 1-3-5-6-8-6-5-3-1 or 1-3-5-6-7m-6-5-3-1 .

that's a blues progression scale, not jazz. And for a beginner, it'd be much easier to incorporate the open D instead of actually reaching the fifth fret

really you want a beginner to learn this? its like doing a complete floor set for a gymnast who's not a gymnast yet. i say a simple scale routine with the metronome started of really slow working the speed up by daily practice. speed has no essence. Has to be accurate and notes clear.

Try to get the book : Bass-Fitness-Exercis ing by Josquin-Pres. It will help to increase your finger speed. The lessons in there are very cool. I use this myself and I like it.

A great jazz bass exercise

Hey there, my name is Ron and I want to show you a few basic exercises that done and great deal of help. These are cute little exercises that you can do instead of going like (bass guitar strumming) which is very important, you can do this and eventually you will increase in your speed and control over the fret board but it is boring. So, what I would like to do is this, you can slide it from any fret on the fret board on the E string and the A string. I am going to start from the third fret like this, third fret E string (bass guitar strumming), second fret A string (bass guitar strumming), fifth fret A string (bass guitar strumming), second fret E string (bass guitar strumming). And then, you go back in the same way you came and it sounds like this (bass guitar strumming). And you are done just like I did to the third fret; you will be going to (bass guitar strumming). You can have also the fun with this. This is the first exercise that I used when I do this for about 20 minutes everyday. Very recommended and I hope you use this and this will increase your playing speed and control over the fret board. Nice playing!
