In this lesson, I'll show you how you can use the pentatonic scale to open up your entire fretboard. I think you'll enjoy this video.
LET'S TAKE IT TO THE BASS!
NOTE: Next week, I'll go back to our triad inversions. Specifically, I'll be demonstrating how to use the inversions to play over chord changes.
Stay tuned...

Being a teacher myself, I appreciate the way you talk to your audience. You take your time and you are passionate about what you do. Great sound. Keep it coming!

@redlady935 Год назад

Your chilled out vibe is a refreshing change from the hyper excited "Hi Guys!!!" approach of the other bass tutors. Helps to have a nice soothing voice too...

Good stuff! Back in the day I was practicing Jeff Lorber Fusion's tune called Water sign. These different pentatonic formations came in very handy to pull off that tune! I was also in a gracious situation where I had a good teacher in conservatory who guided my way to these concepts.. I'm so glad that you don't need to apply to music school nowadays to get some knowledge. Fantastic job mr. Brown!

@Bassgroover 2 года назад

I like how you think of it as a "macro scale." I think that's the conclusion I was coming to as your were going through the lesson..."Hey this is just one big scale.."

@pauli1473 2 года назад

Excellent lesson, Rich. It really validated some of my own thoughts and has given me a heap to think about. Importantly it was super practical too. I also really like the fact you talk in intervals. Great content, awesome laid back style and very sincere. Much appreciated. I'll definitely tuning in each week and recommending your channel to others.

Thanks so much, Tim. I'm loving all the positivity in the comments. It really does feel like we're building a community. That said, the channel is still pretty small, relatively speaking. I fear as the channel grows the likelihood of seeing know-it-alls and trolls in the comments also grows. I know my neighbours will have my back. 😉

Another super cool bass lesson! The efficiency of your teaching is simply unreal. For having tried other fretboard navigation exercise with difficulty and without too much success, yours is so easy to grasp. You are right! I really enjoyed this video. Honestly, I was kind of stuck in a trap these days with my bass playing, and you really have opened a door.

Really great lesson:) Very observant and very helpful. I'm no music major but I think my ear is pretty good. When you started working with the Bb Major Pent, my ear heard a box I play in when playing a part of the verse of Chicago's Does Anyone Really Know what time it is:).

Thank you, Lori. I hope this gives you a few new ideas to play on that song...or any song! I appreciate you tuning it.

@edwinengelbrecht3377 3 года назад

First time student. Love you instruction style. This lesson is Gm pentatonic. Can I assume the same applies to all the minor penta scales?

@richbrownbass 3 года назад

Definitely. You can always start the (relative) major pentatonic scale from the 2nd note of any minor pentatonic. Does that makes sense?

@rockngood 2 года назад

I really enjoy your style... I'd like to follow your lessons chronologically so I don't miss anything, is that a good idea?

@richbrownbass 2 года назад

That's a great idea, Jack. But I have to warn you. Those videos I made when I first started out do not have the greatest audio/video quality. In fact the quality is pretty bad (lol), but I think you'll enjoy the content. Thank you so much for watching.

@s8r647 Год назад

I have gone through a ton of your videos and a ton of other content creators stuff. I just have one question. How do you take each shape of the pentatonic scale and apply it to the given key? For example I also play several other instruments including baritone ukulele and on there you can use a specific string for major or minor and build the shape around the key that way. Is this something that is done on base as well?

@stephenevelyn1571 3 года назад

I guess I just don't have an ear for this... I couldn't discern any difference between the first and second way you played that minor pentatonic scale

@richbrownbass 3 года назад

That's kind of the point. By learning different positions of the scale, you're opening up the fretboard to cover more area using the same notes. This way you're not stuck in one position, and the different positions give you more options for different ideas. So it's more about opening up the fretboard than it is about hearing different things over different positions. I hope that makes sense. Thank you for watching.
