The tenth (vs the third) was something taught to me when I was younger, but never well explained (tho it was obiously muddy). Learning felt a chore UNTIL I realized how much better it sounded at the 10th!!!

@xanderlegaspi 10 месяцев назад

Brilliant! Could you break down if the root lives on the second string and how to construct shapes from there?

@TheHouseJROD 10 месяцев назад

Triads; you wouldn't put 3rd up the octave. You could also play R - 5 - 7.

@xanderlegaspi 10 месяцев назад

@@TheHouseJROD Thanks! But what about dropping the 5th and alternating between major and minor chords like he did on the E string? I'd like to see that on at A string if possible. I suppose we can invert the chord somewhere.

@richbrownbass 10 месяцев назад

I think the chords from the A string actually sound great when played in their closed voicings. Playing a Cmaj7 chord as CEB on the A, D, and G strings works for me. It's the E and A strings that tend to sound muddled when played together.

7/3/24. When I watch people playing bass, their hands move with fluency over the fret board. What can I practice to move about easier on the fret board. I'm beginning to think I should give up on playing bass guitar.

@raydanielz9408 9 месяцев назад

How do you use the chords

@Jackapoo1 8 месяцев назад

Thank you, Mr. Brown. I totally suck but because of you I’m actually beginning to sound like a bass player but don’t get me wrong. I still totally suck at it but I’m not gonna give up. I’ll never be Stanley Clarke.

Wheres this chord chart, if I may? I didn't notice one in the description. But I'm very interested in a bass chord chart. Or did you get it from elsewhere?

Hi, Rich. Thanks for providing these bass lessons online. I would really love for you to teach some techniques and tricks for getting more comfortable doing improvisation. If you have an ear training courses as well as improvisation tips, please upload. I would sincerely appreciate it. P.S. I have subscribed.

@noyd4172 25 дней назад

Appreciate your succinct take on this, and that you used a four-string to do so. You're one of the bass players whose use of chords always sounds the best to my ears.

@jameshoward9137 8 месяцев назад

Hey Rich, I just subscribed. I have watched several bass players but I really connect with your style of teaching. I've played guitar for over 25 years and have played around with bass here and there and have always paid more attention to the bass in songs! I know your channel is going to help me play like a bass player and not play bass like it's a guitar! Please keep it up and thank you!

@AdamNovicki 9 месяцев назад

Wow! I've been playing for years. Have a pretty good grasp of the scales, but never learned chords! Your lesson was so clear! I used to play these muddy 1-3-5 triads. Thanks!
