30 Minute Bass Music Theory Masterclass: From Confusion to Clarity

[@jakeski6488]

He is my favorite instructor. Knows how to explain in simple form and slowly build and get a little more difficult.

[@benderemer7518]

If this seems overwhelming to you, just keep playing. I took a twenty year break from playing bass, and I didn’t bother to learn theory at that time. I played in a punk band, drummer told me to follow the kick, guitar player told me which fret the root of the riff was on, and we made songs, played gigs and had a blast. Now, I’m 46 and when I started playing again just two years ago, I was determined to learn theory and I’ve done the things recommended to me over the past two years, and now videos like this make sense. Point is, just keep going. Get a scale/mode chart, put it on your wall, play to backing tracks and use the notes that are in the songs key, and you will get this, it just takes time.

[@dannnmerkle7930]

Getting back into it after about a 10 year break? I did understand some theory but never really how to apply it or make music with it. Did ok just winging it in a jam band... Trying to get good enough to keep up with and not bore a friend that is an incredibly technical drummer.

Hi Dan, I hope you’re doing well. I want to thank you so much for this extremely comprehensive lesson. I enjoy and learn from all your videos. This video though is so beneficial because you breakdown scales, triads, arpeggios, modes, pentatonics and, chords. I watch this video repeatedly over and over. It helps me understand theory so much better. Thank you so very much fellow bass player!!!😃

You're very welcome! I’m really happy it’s helping you.

[@oskarr7723]

Hi Dan, i started playing after high school with some friends just learning metal and rock songs and never had any formal lessons, music theory or scales so your videos helped me alot. They would tell me just put your finger here lol Now im in my 50s and just bought a new bass and lesrning things i never knew and having fun with it. Thanks

[@alfredoruano1611]

[@b.a.barackas2141]

Thanks a bunch amigo. I appreciate you. Got gifted a bass guitar 4 months ago and have become a pretty mediocre bass player by following your lessons! Still impressive to the roommates and myself how far I've progressed over the course of the Summer. Going to my first Jam night at the end of the month. Nervous but excited.

[@OnlineBassCourses]

That’s awesome! Mediocre is good enough for now 😂 Have fun and keep it simple at the jam night. You’ll be great. 🙏👍👊

[@joekrim6557]

[@OnlineBassCourses]

[@jamiecoxe7327]

You're amazing. I'm just struggling to put everything together. I'm focusing on minor pentatonic scales right now. It would be great if you could do a tab of a good riff like you're playing. I understand the notes for the Pentatonic scale I just don't have down the patterns to create music sounding riffs. I'm really looking for an opportunity to practice my scales and then convert them to riffs and music in part of my practice.

[@jamiecoxe7327]

Ok, I slowed the video down to 25% and tried my best to capture the notes. Thank you

[@OnlineBassCourses]

Your lessons are always very useful & helpful, you are by far the best bass teacher out there. Everything explained so decisively clear & easy . A improv bass riff you demonstrated sounded like “My girl” to my ears . Great job Dan

[@illusionvii]

Pretty sure all he did was walk up the major pentatonic scale. Goes to show how just knowing a little bit of theory and applying it in musical ways can take you pretty far. Dan's lessons are quite invaluable and I thank him for that.

[@OnlineBassCourses]

Thanks very much! Yes I use the My Girl intro a lot to highlight the sound of that scale.

[@acousticmonkey2209]

I started on guitar and was taught to learn the modes along the E string only, going down in the boxes/patterns from low E to high E and back again, before moving onto the next box-shape, until you get past the 12th fret into the octave. Took me longer than I care to say to realise you could play the first 3 modes on the 6th string, then the next 4 on the 5th string. I knew the 4th pattern was lydian (say a C lydian) but no-one explained that the pattern I learned at fret 8 was already inside pattern 1 if you started on the 3rd fret C. I was young and just did I was told, but it took picking up a bass to make that suddenly crystalise in my head, and it made learning them so much easier. Yet I was taught the chord shapes on two strings, E & A, doing major, minor, minor on the E string, then Major, Major, Minor on the A string.🫣

[@jeffpaul6351]

Great stuff. Only suggestion would be to use thr C major scale for the example. It dies not contain any sharps or flats, so it is easier to follow.

[@OnlineBassCourses]

Good suggestion. I usually do but it gets a bit boring sometimes! It’s good to mix things up plus the principles are the same and it’s good to learn different keys.

FOR REFERENCE: We stack in 3rds Triads: 1 3 5 Arpeggios: 1 3 5 8 (added root octave) Major 7th Arpeggios: 1 3 5 Maj7 8 Extended Major 7th Arpeggios: 1 3 5 Maj7 8 9 (11 13 and so on. So long as you find the notes. See jazz solos) CHORDS: Major 7th Chords: 1 Maj7 10 (10 is octave of 3) Chord Voicings: You can create your own chord voicing by choosing different notes from the scale to add to you chords. e.g. 1 Maj6 10 1 5 10 1 5 9 With the chord voicings, you can experiment with the sharps and flats of any notes in the scale: CREATING YOUR OWN SCALE. "jazz" Any chord voicings you make fits with the notes that make it up. And yes, you can obviously arpeggiate the chords. PENTATONIC: Major/Minor Scale WITHOUT 4th and 7th MODES: aka Black Magic Diatonic just means going up and down the scale. The W W H WWW H of the major scale. Now if we start at the second note of the scale but still play the same notes within that scale, it changes the entire WWHW intervals. Just moving that one interval changes everything. Those are called modes. Mode Arpeggios: Now I'm REALLY lost in this part. 🤯 8:35 MINOR SCALE: The W H W W H W W of a minor scale. A natural minor scale has a flat 3rd, 6th, AND 7TH. A harmonic minor has only a flat 3rd, and 6th. Chord Voicings in Minor Scale: Still the same as the major but obviously there are the flats. Yes, you can obviously play the voicings separately by arpegiatting them. As well as playing them on different parts of the fretboard. Now you're really making basslines. Minor PENTATONIC: Still without the 4th and the 7th. In this case, the Maj4 and the flat 7th. Special Mention: Blues Scale Has a FLAT 5 and works well with the minor pentatonic. The Minor Scale up the Octave: b will stand for flats. So it's a 1 2 b3 4 5 b6 b7 8 Octave: 8 9 b10 11 12 b13 b14 15 CHORD PROGRESSIONS: Now you got the things you can play on each chord. Let's take ANY chord progression. So with each of those chords, you can play any scale, triads, arpeggios, and chord voicings of your choosing.

[@M_EvoBass]

[@AlexiKaruna]

You crystalized a big thing for me: What the pentatonic scale means - both major and minor. I had never thought about it that each is just the existing scale less the notes of the tritone. Makes sense as it's why these subsets of notes can be played over virtually everything and sound good. I will have to play with it but it is also interesting to take the modes less the tritone and what is left of the pentatonic - some are just the same but like the mixolydian or dorian... not sure what will come from but am going to play around with this! It's also super cool how you explain how you are thinking when improvising... that for me is something I wonder about a lot when I see someone shredding is kind of 'whats going on in their heads right now'.... And also that some of this is just hours of practice... but knowing (I'm seeing it) that it does come together.

How to master minor melodic and minor harmonic scale modes and which is more common or useful. Btw this video is a great summary for everything I know till now thanks to Your lessons. Thank You🙏🙏🙏

[@OnlineBassCourses]

Thanks! There kind of isn’t one for diminished or at least major or minor would clash. Over the vii chord, you could play minor pentatonic but move the fifth interval down a half step. That would fit.

[@ishaeldeguzman]

like for a dorian in another key, how would i know if a key is a sharp or a flat?

[@OnlineBassCourses]

It’s just the notes of that key. E.g. D Major modes all contain D E F# G A B C#. You must know all your major scale key signatures to understand the major scale modes (the circle of fifths helps with this - I have a lesson on my channel).

[@ren7ee]

Can you play all the modes in a single key? For example, if a key is in G, can I play any mode in G in the G scale or over a G chord instead of a G major scale?

[@OnlineBassCourses]

You can technically play any of the G major scale modes over G but some of them will sound more ‘interesting’ than others due to the stability of some notes against the notes of the G chord. As ever, go with what sounds good to you.
