Minor Scales and Keys For Bass Guitar 

these are tha patterns: 1:40 natural minor scale 5:43 harmonic minor scale 7:39 melodic minor scale

Too much info to digest all at once. Great job! You know your stuff. I just cannot keep up.

I remember my high school band teacher went over these with us and I never really payed attention since we didn’t really need the theory, but now that I’m learning bass I actually need it

your bass sounds awesome..

Absolutely invaluable content mark, really appreciate this stuff, so helpful, concise and clearly explained, thanks so much!

Man I just needed the graphic to follow to play the minor scale :( My mind blowed.

YES, the one I needed! Mark always comes through, old video or new! :D

Fantastic lesson! Thanks, friend.

I'm trying man.....im trying. A lot of info in this lesson I need sloooow mooo!

You just made a very valid point at 7:00. It's been bugging me for a while. So in case when I'm playing a natural minor, the 5th degree scale as far as I know, relates to a phrygian mode which a minor mode. I was always confused as to why the harmony works in a way if the root is Am, the 5th degree is often a major chord being an E. Now what you just mentioned sort of confirms my suspicion why E is a major 5 if the root position is minor A. Is this the case? Thanks bass brother.

Very Helpful. Good teaching technique!!! Ike

In case this is a lot of info for anyone I recommend looking at the link the the description and rewatching the video at least once!!!

wow man you re great at teaching, thank you!

I eat those lessons like "Wiener Schnitzel", can't get enough of it. TalkingBass.net is my menue. Very well teached and understandable even for german speaking like me.

Hi mark nice lesson btw i would like to aske some questions: 1. Where do i can apply melodic minor or harmonic? 2. Can we convert natural minor with those scale/ Or dominant scale while phrasing? 3. Is there any melodic major or harmonic major scale? Thank you mark

Thanks for demystifying minors keys. Can I default to any one of the minors keys when jamming? e.g. if someone says a song/riff is in C minor, can I simply use the relative major scale (D Sharp Major) and play the notes in that scale? Or do I have to know whether it's a Harmonic or Melodic minor scale? Thanks again.

As always, very helpful. Thank you!

Thank you so much sir you are fabulous work

Do you have any tips on where to find some uses of minor scales like maybe a specific rock song with a minor scale in it?

Thank you!

I subscribed to your subscription. I did not know that there more than one minor type of scale.

Hey Mark... what is the name of the iPhone app that I can get to use for scale practice?

Thank s Mark :)

How do I find the key of the other minor keys? I'm guessing it's the same, but I dunno

Another math class, awesome :)

Um, sorry, but this one is a bit confusing to someone not familiar with reading music.

Gnarly

Trying to learn music is so frustrating, none of this makes any damn sense to me

Ratio between talking and showing is unballanced here and causes confusion. Consider that, mate.
