Talking Technique: Pedalling on Bass 

Love your lessons, Ariane! You always work the brain, the fingers and the heart! Thanks for putting your wisdom and experience out there for us!

Great information. Looking forward to more great stuff. Thanks!

Great! Thanks for the beautiful sounding and helpful lesson.

This is great, really getting my fingers working. Thank you for the videos

your right-hand technique is to be applauded

Thank you, great lesson and tip. Now I'm off explore more of your videos.

Excellent vid, as always. Thank you, from North Carolina

this is an awesome lesson exactly what I needed🎶🎶🎶

Ariane, you're the greatest.

The technique of letting limbs hang and be loose like a puppet on strings (around the 10 min mark here) is probably the best physical advice for anyone playing musical instruments. Watch Jojo Mayer instruction on drums, Gladstone, Moeller etc. It all applies to every motion applied on self or instrument.

Thanks for this, especially the tip!

Thank you so much. This helps me a lot.

Very good! Thank you very much!

Very informative I liked the tip at the end

Great advice!

This is very good.. very important seems to give you dexterity and muscle memory

I bought the book it's has great info very useful

Thank you!

Great!...thanks

The tip about relaxation at the end is particularly good. I've found that t'ai chi helps directly with arm tension and indeed with one's time: the more relaxed you are, the less likely to snatch at the time. Also, you and Aimee Nolte should form a band or something, you might be sisters. If I run into other lookalikes, I'll let you know ;)

Ariane fabulous teacher. Very personable.

Good stuff

Thank you

I like your style of instruction/guidance so much that I spontaneously purchased your book on Amazon. You were using a 5 string in this video, I hope your book mentions the 5 string too. I am playing a 5 string Schecter Riot so either way your book will be helpful. Oh yes your tone as mentioned before, what amp are you using ?

Great vids! You help me a lot to think about things, I'm a returning player after many years, and I have all these habits( which worked for me) but I know I need to be open to learn different points of view. I'm an instinctive player and never learned to read music, I don't know that I ever will, but I am more inclined to delve a little more deeply into my technique and tonal knowledge after watching your vids:) Thank you much! Btw, are you a fan of the amazing Chris Squire of Yes? His use of melody and harmony and counter point are just amazing, as well as his vocal skills and choral arrangements, it would be nice to see you break down a Yes tune for examination..Squire had a style that really was unique.

Love that bass. What kind is it ?????????? Thanks Terry

What brand of bass is that? Thank you!

Love her teaching!!! I think it's the glasses lol

What bass is that? I really like the tone. Also seems like a very comfortable instrument.

can pedal off just the 2 strings, but yea dont have to shake like crazy,

The pedalling part is easy. It's holding-the-bass-while-balancing-upright-and-trying-to-ride-my-bicycle-up-the-road-at the same time that I find difficult.

Arienne, I don't understand why you say that playing the major scale notes below the octave above the root makes them minor. It doesn't. They become inversions, but still major; or am I missing something? EDIT: Never mind, I get it, you mean the first descending 3rd is 3 semitones, and so on, right?

What is deferent between four string. Bass guitar and fifth string...

Where can I purchase the strap? I like the width.

I don't really get how playing C major in reverse (from the top) makes it minor relative to the root note.

where can you buy your book?

Well... of u fellas wanna learn playin bass guitar. U have to practice every day 30mns. Im a Bass player over 40 years.

Excelent Accent. where you are from?

im aways open to a big bang

My mom taught me to raise my arm some seconds and then let it down.

5:02 I need to grow up

How the hell can you downthumb that video, unless you find theory useless and boring ? People suck

Ты как Анна Сентина только без сисек и старая?

Boring and far too much talk!

Very good! Thank you!
