The Beauty in the BASSics (Triads part 1) 

"if you just sit and practice and immerse yourself in the sound of what you are doing, the simplest things can just become so beautiful." Wisdom!

I already knew my pentatonics and triads, but your videos have opened up whole new horizons for using with them. Thank you!

I love that you never forget us beginners.. thank you

Beginner bass player here! I’m a big heavy metal guy and learning these triads backward and forward is going to make it so much easier to write riffs. Great exercise for all genres, I’d say. Great work as always, Mr Brown.

This youtube channel is key for bass players willing to truly improve their skills. Fundamental concepts are discussed here, with the right level of details.

It’s the way that you teach is why I like the channel.

So I've been working your beginner's playlist, currently at lesson #5, and this is such a great deeper dive into the topic. I've also been wanting to get a better understanding of the fretboard, and have been struggling to find a mapping system that didn't make my eyes glaze over. This etude makes a lot of sense for a beginner to learn the fretboard and develop muscle memory, which is exactly what I want/need. I'll probably just practice this exercise for a week or two before I move on to lesson #6.

Time is more valuable than money. You can get more money, but you cannot get more time. Thank you for sharing your time with us, Rich :)

Not only a great musician, you are a great instructor. God bless!

I came for the great bass lesson and also got a lesson in cool. What a communicator! Two lessons in one. Gratitude!🌹🙏🏼

Awesome presentation and information as always. Thank you.

You make me want to buy a 5 string. You teach well.

feel like this rearranged a bunch of stuff I knew in a very musical way. In some cases the second octave is best served by a different shape, i think, have fun mixing and matching.

I like these bass lesson videos although I am not a bassist. I'm a saxophonist who was told by a certain teacher that there's a connection between bass and alto saxophone, even today I don't know what he meant but I am continuing learning how the bass guitar works. As I follow these lessons I'm starting to realise that the bass is outlining all chords in a song and as a saxophonist I should listen to the bassist. Later i learned that the greatest jazz alto saxophonist, Charlie Parker was trained by a guitarist to fully understand his saxophone and how to improvise. That's why I am watching and stadyings all Rich brown bass videos because they are full of wisdom. Thanks.

Really enjoying Rich's way of explaining things, making it simple yet beautiful. His lessons have really improved my playing, tremendously. Just sent one of my friends, another long-time frustrated bassist, to this channel. I hope he finds it equally rewarding, and fun!

This is exactly why I love the Nashville Number system. It is like it was made for the bass. You start seeing these shapes on the fretboard and can play anything anywhere on the neck. Love your lessons, you are a great teacher.

I love you Rich! Your appreciation of beauty is inspiring. Keep doing what you're doing---which is adding to the beauty of the world. Always a noble (and much needed) endeavor.

Great job Rich, as usual.

I’ve bn searching for the right tutorial for basics for awhile, and this channel is amazing. Clearly explained. So here I am at Triads Part 1. Really excited

Y love rich....You áre the Best....god bless you...amasing leson
