Hi, Iām Greg Hagger!
Iām a proĀ bassist and the founder of Greg's Bass Shed, where I help enthusiasticĀ bass players like you to reach new heights with your playing.
Talking of which...I bet you took upĀ bassĀ becauseĀ it was your lifeās dream, but we both know itās not as easy as it looks, right? Learning toĀ groove on the bass while playing creative bass lines and locking in with the drummer can be harder than youĀ initiallyĀ thought.
Whatever frustrations youāve got, I totally understandĀ because, believe me Iāve been there. But after decades of study in the shed and thousands of performances onstage I figured out how to getĀ my bass playing together and now Iām lucky enough to make my living playing all over the world and, more importantly, sharing my knowledge and experience with thousands of bass players, whoāve reported some amazing results...

"I honestly donāt need to brag about Greg or his lessons. The content that is available for free speaks volumes of the time he puts into each lesson. I didnāt think there could be more to offer than what was available already. But the time put into the course is second to none."

āGreg has a wonderful way of teaching - gentle, effective, clear, and makes playing great material accessible. His approach to sharing and giving as well as the quality of his interpretations and transcriptions, cannot be beaten."

āHi Greg, just to say thanks for the effort you put into what you do. I'm sure there are plenty of others out there who support you and the work you do and appreciate all your efforts. A lot of care has gone into producing the lessons and other aspects so thanks very much.ā
What's The Riff Meister 2 All About?
Back in 2024, IĀ launched a Riff Meister Boot Camp where I released a riff a day for four weeks. I tackled bass lines from different styles, and went on further to teach bassists how to lock-in and groove with the dummer and also, how to develop these riffs.
This course was a roaring success and after many suggestions, the concept for this Riff Meister 2 course was born.
I initially launched this course over four weeks, just like the first one. But now you can purchase the whole course with lifetime access.
20 hand-picked bass riffs that you'll love!
A big part of playing bass is perfecting the art of playing riffs repetitively and accurately whilst at the same time laying down a solid groove for the rest of the band. Thatās exactly what youāll learn how to do in Level 1 of the Riff MeisterĀ 2 course.
Do you want to get more creative?
There becomes a point where every bass player wants to get away from set bass lines and add their own personal creativity to what they're playing. You might need some pointers and ideas with the creative process needed to perfect these skills and thatās just what I give you in Levels 2 & 3 of the Riff Meister 2 course.
The bass and drum team...
As bass players we need to become great at locking in with the drummer. Youāll get plenty of practice with this in the course, especially jamming with the 20 bespoke live drum loops specifically created to accompany the 20 riffs.
Is the Riff Meister 2 course suitable for YOU?
You can enrol on the Riff Meister 2 whatever your level.
I have designed the course in such a way that you can get a lot out of it if you are a beginner, intermediate or more advanced bassist.
There are three levels in the course as follows:
- Level 1Ā - This is where you learn the main riffs which are accessible for even beginner bass players
- Levels 2 & 3Ā - For more experienced players, youāll play other parts of the bass lines & different variations of the main riff that include:
- More complex rhythms
- Suitable fills and lick
- Counter-melodies
- Articulations

"By leaps and bounds, Greg is the best. Very organised, not too much information at one time and very pragmatic. Highly recommend for beginners to advanced players!"

"Greg, theĀ Riff MeisterĀ course is brilliant!Ā For a few minutes each day, youāve introduced me to a wide variety of bassĀ riffs. Many of the selections, Iād heard, but not really understood. I can now quickly incorporate the concepts into my own playing and even develop my own variations.Ā Itās been great fun!"
RickĀ said...
"Greg's courses are always top notch. You will not be disappointed. Very clear instructions and supporting material."
4 Styles In 4 Weeks
The boot camp is divided up into four weeks and the five riffs a week are in four different styles of music.Ā But you can spend as long as you like on each āweekā as you have the course for life.
Focusing on bass riffs from particular styles of music helps you to learn the concepts behind creating your own bass lines and fills that are authentic to the style of music that you are playing in. Iāve picked classic riffs from tunes in the following styles:
- Soul
- Funk
- Rock
- Blues
