Hi bro, thx for sharing. Dont worry sound is ok. I use headphones. A con is the open strings rumble under your voice. Cutting the volume on the bass would help. Cheers
Hey man, thank you for the info and what you do i m a beginner bass player and this exercise is really good cus is true it helps you find the notes on the bass. And helps you move around up and down the bass. Thank you
Thank you! No pre planned notes here, just simple min pentatonic with some passing notes. I don't consider myself a soloist so when I get one I just try to "play the bass". Thanks again though 😎
Shot out to Seattle(Space Needle) Pike Place Market, Tacoma , Washington, Narrows Bridge, Spanaway, Washington etc former service member ( at that time Fort Lewis, Wa) beautiful area, oh yeah, let me mention Mount Rainier. Ok, now for the bass guitar good instruction and great advice on practicing bass getting the scales down, knowing what notes your playing, putting rhythm to it etc
Have you ever considered that perhaps you should not be stretching when you play two whole steps on the same string. Instead, consider when you’re playing the G major scale first three notes with fingers 1-2-4, that you’re actually not in 3rd position when you start; your hand is in fourth position (comfortable for fingers 2-4), with your first finger reaching back, not by stretching, but by straightening itself. Yes. Unhook the first finger. This even works for players with small hands, sometimes requiring a tiny shift. Check it out. It works for my students.
Hold on Before I start watching your AMAZING Point I played bass guitar for 38 years 20 consecutive and 18 part time. I came back to playing FULL time again Due to having Neck Surgery And purposely started at the BASSICS pun intended But yes. I started from the very basics. I use the basics for 1 to 2 hours Then I EXPLORE. It is so IMPORTANT to understand Your instrument I adjust it intone it Installed the bridge the nut Truss everything Beautiful Video Study the basics BUT EXPLORE and challenge yourself I’ll play scales all over my fretboard for 3 hours looking for pieces to my own puzzles
Hey dude seems like a cool concept but unfortunately the mic isnt doing a great job of picking up your voice in this vid relative to the loudness of the bass. Theres also about an extra 2 whole minutes tacked onto the end with just a blackscreen but idk if that was intentional or not. The audio levels seemed perfectly fine in the Jaco vid you made which i also found cool and informative btw.
Ah dang! Thank you for pointing that out to me. I'm still trying to dial in the best way to do this shit. Not sure how I missed all that but again, I appreciate the feedback!
