I'll keep this super short as I'm writing this from the middle of a studio session (with the one and only Gary Willis... WHOOP!)... so let's get to it...
You can practice your scales... practice your arpeggios... but if you don't understand THIS none of that will matter as you won't understand how and why EVERYTHING is connected...
And once you start to understand this system it's ALL gonna start making sense.
Intrigued?!...
I hope so ;)
It's all about the numbers system... and I'm going to show you how to understand it and apply it to your bass playing - in less than 10 minutes!
As always, see you in the shed!
Scott :)

@harmono8766 4 года назад

This has some pre-requisites. You need to know what a minor, major and 7th is, what makes up a chord. What a scale is. Do you know this stuff?

@natskis 4 года назад

I would recommend you watch some music theory videos on youtube. e.g. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_eKTOMhpy2w.html Then how chords work ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5Y01jIorpeA.html Things will slowly creep in and make more and more sense. Rewatch them if as you get more the 2nd and 3rd times as you learn more. There's so much good stuff on youtube

Thank you so much, this really makes sense, great to see this being taught in such a fun way, someone who loves it! there lies a musical freedom when you go past the mathematical sound barrier, and knowing your stuff helps to become fluent. Thanks for your great tutorials, I'm a guitarist, who loves the bass of my acoustic guitar, and your videos have helped rekindle the bass in my playing. Knowing that there is more always inspires. Anyways thanks again!

So after watching maaany youtube videos trying to learn theory in a way that makes sense… you win. And as a grandmother it takes me a bit longer to understand the information and digest it so thanks for the lessons. Been playing around a year now with intent of learning the “language of sound” and applying it to bass practice, and guitar and keys also but primarily bass. It’s lovely being able to learn from others and have that opportunity accessible all over the globe. Cheers!

I just finished watching all of your "Ask Scott" videos. I really enjoyed watching them. I noticed that you haven't done an "Ask Scott" video in some time. Could you bring "Ask Scott" back, maybe on a monthly or bimonthly basis? I really like hearing the questions and concerns that other bass players have. Your answers in those videos have answered a lot of the question that I have had myself. Thank you for all you do.

@graemerobertson5160 5 лет назад

I never heard of it until recently and I think this glorified chord categorisation system is a total waste of time. What does it help you do???

@bearmdfl2186 5 лет назад

@@graemerobertson5160 It helps you Transpose song btw than using chords. And I know lots of musician that uses these number system instead of saying C-G-a-F they say 1-5-6-4 so if the singer would want to transpose you could transpose it easier.

@graemerobertson5160 5 лет назад

@@bearmdfl2186 It doesn't help me transpose at all. I learned to do that by understanding how to shift root notes. In North East England hardly anyone has heard of it, let alone uses it. The amount of effort you have to put into understanding it far outweighs just quoting the names of the chords. And it falls down if the chords don't fit the C major scale.

@bearmdfl2186 5 лет назад

@@graemerobertson5160 if it does not fall down in the key then you can always use (b, #) for example 7b-6-1 or 6#-6-1 plus you could also use (7, dim, sus, etc.)

@graemerobertson5160 5 лет назад

@@bearmdfl2186 I don't know what you mean if it does not fall down? If it doesn't fall down then it is just majors and minors and the 7th . If it does fall down why bother with it? How would you categorise I am the Walrus by the Beatles by this system?

@kevinlander46 3 месяца назад

Please help ! Greg at 6minutes 40 seconds you say in the key of D, picking numbers for your 2nd line you say 6 4 6 A7 but for your 3rd space 2nd line you write E7 should that not be B7 if i am wrong please accept my apologies?

@LS-ti1rz Год назад

That off the top of your head example you did around time marker 7:53 and ending on 8:00 was seriously beautiful. I can't believe you did that on the spur of the moment. That sounded great with the root and with the chords. I would love to hear you take that and combine both root notes and some chords to make a piece of music. That truly was better than 90 % of the crap that's on Top 40 radio....

You seem like you know what you’re talking about lol. When he shows us the 1-6-2-5 in the key of C and starts playing it do we use C, A minor, D minor, and G as root notes and play a pattern using 1-6-2-6 based off of that? Using the major scale ?

@bassplayinfool 6 лет назад

I use the full number system, wherein in the key of C, C is I, but D is ii, unless you're asking for a borrowed major chord, in which case you would mark it as you have above, with an upper case II. It adds much more depth to the numbers and allows for faster chart/form comprehension.

Musicians logic: "the scales, the chords, it all ties into the number system" .... Let's use notation based on letters! ... Let's use 8 letters because we have 11 notes!

Some of the letters can be other letters some of the time.

'Let's use 8 letters because we have 11 notes!' well, e.g. Eb if also D# so makes use to use 8 letters... also doesn't mathematicians (and pretty much everyone) use 10 digits (0-9) despite having infinite numbers?

@Bass.Player 6 лет назад

I remember sitting in with a lot of different bands at benefits and so forth when the lead guitar player or the keyboard player would yell across the stage the number sequence and the count. Knowing the type on music being played I could do the song having never heard it. Other information was given such the intro. So it would go something like :"It's a 1-4-5 in A with a turn around intro". (Nashville)

I appreciate this video my dude. I’ve been playing bass for over 30 years and I consider myself an intuitive player. I am musically illiterate. When I play, people assume I know theory based on my skill level. I don’t consider myself to be one that plays music, but rather allows music to move through me. Someone I know really wants me to learn theory so I can understand what I already do naturally. I play music for expression not as a career. My concern is will learning theory suck the life out of the reason why I play in the first place
