In this lesson, you'll learn 5 beginner bass lines that people will recognize and love - and get people to pay attention to YOUR playing.
You see, bass is usually a 'supporting' instrument that goes unnoticed. There are tons of easy guitar riffs or piano riffs that people know and recognize, but if you played the bass lines to any of those songs, people would just look at you and say,
"What the ^$&* was that supposed to be?"
The bass lines (even the easy bass lines) aren't very recognizable. However, there are a few gems - a few songs where the bass line IS the song.
These are the kind of songs where people will immediately recognize the bass line and start singing along. And the best part - these are BEGINNER bass lines. They're a great place to start.
So next time someone asks you to 'play something' (I can't stand it when people say this...) you'll have something in your arsenal that is guaranteed to impress.
Cheers,
Luke

I was actually booed in a party for playing bass as the "guitar wasn't loud enough" lol. A girl approached me once thinking that I was the guitar player for the cover song of war pigs (Black Sabbath). Once she learnt that I was a bass player, she pretty much said that I was just moving around my fingers fast for nothing. To be fair, she was pretty drunk. Even after all this, I remain a proud bassist. I learnt the bass first then the guitar. And I always chose to play the bass.

I'm embarrassed to say this but I own a Peavey TL5 in pristine condition ( because I haven't learned to play it) and a Gibson EBO that I was given by my great uncle. I've had them Both for about 30 years. I would learn a bit then get busy with work and put them down for a couple of years and forget what little I had learned. I don't remember anything now at all. What is a good way to start from scratch and remember it? I've lost my books and I don't know the very basic notes. Could you help me get started again Please? P.S. life lesson I'll trade you. don't work to much or your wife will leave you after 28 years. "Balance is the Key to a happy life".

@frankj2458 5 лет назад

Hey Luke, I noticed it looks like you’re playing an Ibanez, maybe a SR though I can’t tell. I’m having trouble deciding between the Schecter Studio 5 elite and the Ibanez 505. I can get them both used, with the Schecter in mint condition for $400 and the 505 in good condition for $350. I’d love to have anyone’s input. I know the differences in weight and neck profile, I guess I’m just curious if there’s any advantage in sound?

@bentleymurphree216 4 года назад

Frank J I have never played a schecter, but I have several Ibanez basses, and I love them.

@robertstanley6880 4 года назад

All seriousness your a good teacher but for a beginner your making things way to complicated I'd rather you just call out the fret numbers instead of calling out the notes and fret numbers

@lawofliberty3517 5 лет назад

I'm more or less just starting my musical adventure. About 1 month in, couple dozen hours with bass. Seems easier to me. Still learning the notes to the frets, but this numbering method is teaching me faster as a means to achieve results. Still getting my fingers and hands used to it, also. The guys I'm learning and practicing with are pretty impressed with my results so far. Timing with hand movement and placement is challenging. I'm definitely making positive progress and have a great bunch of people around to help.
