Hi, Troels. What I have been doing is play a simple blues in A/Am, droning the bass note from A, to D, to A, to E to D, an improvising over top of that with my fingers. You can start with straight time, then work up some different rhythms, connecting runs. But the nice thing is that it removes the need to finger the bass notes with the fretting hand, and also, because you're improvising, you're not learning to do it by rote. Seems to be working, and provides new noodling opportunities....
