thank you.

Thanks!

You sir, are a natural. Amazing stuff.

I have a 6 string, which I'm using to learn bass. It seems daunting trying to master the fretboard, and know each note by heart. Not to mention playing songs by ear or creating your own lines.

First time bass player. 6 string fretless

So dumb question - what do scales have to do with learning songs?

But truth be told I gave up on the peptonics a long time ago and I kinda stick to the modes, because I used to think the pentatonic was the end all be all scale that would fit over everything and 1 day I played it over a certain chord progression and it didn't sound good, and I was like ugh. No good. So now I stick to the modes. I play the minor third over the major I play the miner 7 flat 5 over the myxolidian or 5 chord. I play the major one over the minor 6 etc. Etc😊

I definitely enjoyed the video. And I'm watching it at work. Don't tell. Anybody can't wait 2 get home and 2 try it, but I'm sure I'll i'll be able to play It.😊

I'm here because I'm considering getting a bass and have never played before. This to me now looks very realistic because the instructionals are getting better and better. This one is a very good one so I liked and subscribed and will watch more.

9:44 maestro podría explicar más despacio ese link?, están hermoso, es increíble porfavor 🙏🙏🙏, muchas gracias por el video🎉🎉🎉

The first exercise on the 3 shapes ascending & descending sounds like JS Bach's: "Jesu Bleibet Meine Freude" Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring

Sorry for your loss.

My God! thats was a beautiful running chord Rich..! wish i can play like you someday...

Send me a bass 😮🤗🥹

Thanks!

Bro, your bass has some resonant notes!

These lessons are so helpful!! I’ve recently started playing Bass in my jazz band at school and am soon switching to playing it in my regular band classes and these lessons help me a lot!!

I like you more and more dear man.

❤❤❤🎉🔥🔥

Cómo poder improvisar así con ese groove cuando comienza el video me esfuerzo me esfuerzo

Muchas gracias maestro🎉🎉🎉🎉

You are a blessing! Over the past week I’ve been extremely stressed trying to find a way to start actually enjoying and learning about this amazing instrument. You showed me how, I enjoy every moment I practice now. I look forward to your presence in my days. I look up to you, your articulation of concepts is smooth, calm, and seamless with just the right amount of groove! I struggle with comparison of myself to other bassists and judgments about where I’m at in my musical journey. I was wondering if this is something you have dealt with. I would be extremely grateful if you could speak to the hardships that came along with learning the instrument in a reply or maybe even a video. You’ve seriously touched my heart with the way you teach. Walk in harmony my man. Big ups!

Thank you Rich, I don't know why I missed this one. Peace and love.

I am an organic chemist, and I say thank you for that second album cover.

I want to make it my eternal mission to become a Gospel Cat. Thanks so much!

Shoot, totally missed the fact that you toured in Europe as well, I definitely would've come to an event if time allowed it ! Well, next time, then. Welcome back !

Welcome back Mr. brown thank you 🙏🏾 🎸

I started doing this when I first picked up the bass! Wish I realized its importance. Irie! Time to practice.

Greatness once again 💯

My fingers are there yet but this is so helpful!

I'm glad you're back home too to share your great lessons with us!

Great lesson. Like Sting said on his interview with Rick Beato, "it’s not a C chord until I play a C on the bass:. :)

Bedankt

Hi Rich, been following and practicing along with you for a while and I’m absolutely loving your lessons. Thank you for taking the time to produce these videos.

Thank you sir for the lesson.

Great lesson, thank you... i really love your lessons but.... I love you sound too, can you help me to try to emulate that sound? i have a fender jazz but no way to sound like you. Any tips? Thank you ❤

just found your channel thank goodness someone who takes it nice and slow can understand where the notes are thankyou sir 😂

I do believe I have found my teacher!

That is a really cool shape. Thanks

Im very new to bass. Thank you ive found your channel!

Thank you Rich for sharing! Those upper octave bass fill at the right moment get me a stank face from the audience everytime! From your experience, can you give us some examples on when an upper octave bass fill will be appropriate when playing with a drummer ? Since in video you often play alone so it got me curious

Welcome back, i missed your great contributions

Thanks for more great content, nice to see you back.

Welcome back! Man, "Steve Coleman & the Five Elements" ! What a great gig to be in! 'Black Magik', changed my life ! As usual, from you, great advices and tips (& great sound)! Never fails! Love your 'simple, useful, approach' ! Take care !

Glad to see you again brother! Missed ya

Keep it up Sir! It's helpful

I miss the old theme song of the brownstone ❤

that's what it's about in classical too, but who said this wasn't classical.....have fun, and thanks so much for the content. If i get some extra bread i'll be sure to flow some your way. Steve Coleman, wow!! You're really doin it!!!

Thanks Rich. You've taken away any excuses I had, for not being able to solo, with taste!!!!!

Hi, only recently found you and you deliver more education in your 12 minutes average videos than some do in a lot more time, ty!!!
