Alright I'm buying the E-Book, 15% because I want to get better, 85% because I want to support you so you keep doing your thing.

[@gmkbass]

This guy's playing is absolutely ridiculous. He's really on another level with his skills, creativity and musicianship.

[@t.j.meechan682]

Man, you have so much talent. Appreciate the opportunity to glean a small amout. Much respect Nate!

[@NateNavarro]

Thanks, T.J.! Happy New Year to you. :D

[@andreyvanakoff9412]

Most probably one of the best bass players in the world. Nate, you are using it right, for a music, rhythm, solo and all of it on a quite high level. There are a lot of jokes about basic bass players, but how interesting you are using it all! It's great!

[@NateNavarro]

Thanks, Andrey! 😁🙏🏼

[@thejoetandy]

Love that you demo that tapping lick on a Harley Benton and a Fodera back to back. It's nice having some confirmation that gear isn't a your main obstacle to improvement, compliance to practicing is.

[@eugenechek7288]

Very cool, as always. Greetings from Moscow.

[@kandem01]

I bought the book some time ago. Going from front to back, it starts off super easy, but I found it jumped into the advanced mechanics real quick. Any advise on conquering the book with zero instruction? I've been on bass for a year now,and i am showing good progress, however I am struggling with your book. Unfortunately, i dont own a laptop or computer so i cannot use most of the files from the link the book comes with.

[@NateNavarro]

Hey @Kandem ! Thanks a ton for buying my book. Definitely spend time on the "Additional Online Learning Materials" sections. Beginner: Page 32. Moderate to Advanced: Page 156. These portions are all hosted on YT. :)

[@cristinamariawilmer]

Best 30 mins of bass riffs... Your videos are always a pleasure... Happy 2022 🌟

[@odiec5567]

Great book, glad you put out a physical copy. I was definitely at a but of a plateau in my playing, and was too chicken to really practice some more advanced techniques until I picked up a copy.

[@nahmy]

Great to see you do lots of these riffs on a Harley Benton Shorty. Best 89EUR ive ever spent. !!

[@zonibone]

This is one of the best bass riff videos I have ever heard - many of these riffs are very unique.

[@paolozak3014]

Amazing ...and capable of just keeping tasty irresistible grooves instead of freakin' tapping all over the place all the time

[@thierry18]

0:41 Favorite riff, possibly one of my favorite riffs ever in fact.

[@felixmartinmusic]

Wow man that second riff

[@johnmoser2689]

Another extra cool video from the one and only Nathan Navarro great stuff man I gotta start getting deep into practice mode

[@Synkronous]

You're insanely good at bass and your riffs slap man (no pun intended). I really hope to see you making music in the future like the work you did with Devin Townsend. Also, it's awesome that your book has so many kickass riffs from your past videos that I really loved and wanted to learn. I definitely need to get it.

[@FlowieFX]

Wow Nate, those 33 minutes were amazing! The quality of all riffs are top notch🔥🔥 Do you still own all the basses used in this video?

[@yigitalbay4266]

Dude you are my role model on bass so cool!!

[@florinbaiduc]

I'm a simple guy - I see (and hear) the Bass book - I buy the Bass book :) .

[@markbass354]

SOUNDS REALLY GOOD

[@Log_rithms]

if only i had even just a smidgen of your inventiveness for riffs...

[@cjc5627]

Killer bassman 🔥🔥💯

[@BOMBPHONICS]

Just ordered your book. Looking forward to it. Thanks for all the inspiration! One of the best around, no question. Next on the list is a Warwick Thumb.

[@NateNavarro]

Awesome! Thank you! 😁🙏🏼

[@EnzoFerenczyo]

Congrats on your gig with PT, looking forward to seeing you play in Montreal

[@dionisio7719]

Thanks for this beautyfull show !!! Great !! Always .. Oh .. happy nee year !!

[@josephromano7867]

Wow this has motivated me to work harder to reach a higher level!!!!!

[@squirt594]

Love that they're all 4 string.

[@arsenije_wav8620]

Idk how to rate my technique after watching this. I can pull off all of the more traditional sounding finger, slap and pick techniques here, but the hybrid stuff you do with such ease just escapes me. Transitioning from a flamenco style strum, to a percussive slap, to a melodic tapping arpeggio within a single bar, hell even practicing slowed down I'm barely keeping up and not matching any of the nuances

[@lu9464]

Nate you are very strong and very beautiful man...🎸 ciao da ITALIA 🇮🇹💪💪❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝

[@joshuacalvinyoung]

Nice job Nate! ⭐️

[@jimmyhowe7883]

Incredible!

[@tikaal]

would be interesting if you could do a Q&A one day!

[@giuseppemare]

A modern master because his technique is so amazing but when you listen to each exercise, you find their soul musical period for me there a joy to listen to.

[@timothycolbrese8023]

AMAZING playing Nate! Love your videos! You have gotten me hooked on Source Audio products now man. Lol. Once you try one that is really it! I bought the Nemesis about a month ago. Since then Ive gotten the Aftershock and the Gemini! They are really doing it! Any chance that we can get a demo of the Zio on bass??!!?? Fingers crossed!

[@barryvalentine6784]

:Looking forward to see you join Porcupine Tree in Chicago! You sound fantastic! This coming from a fellow bassist

[@szymongat8509]

Super! 🔥💪🏻🎶

[@Weizendeath]

It's always a pleasure to watch and listen to your skills, absolute amazing ! Can you tell, what Basses you use in this Video ? Many thanks ! Roland

[@Un_abated]

Man I only made it to #2 and had to buy the book 😂😂

[@redcoatmonster3421]

Your playing is so clean man, does your book include technique lessons?

[@NateNavarro]

Thanks! Yes, lessons on technique are covered as well. Check out the table of contents at nathannavarro.net/books

[@wombatboter]

Just watched the entire video and shared it on a Dutch bass-site, very inspiring !...What's the red headless bass at the end ? Greetings from Belgium !

[@jacksonruff9817]

What is the White Headless K bass you play at 1:10?

[@GrupettoGaz2905]

I have Nates book, - but sadly, none of Nates talent! But I shall still enjoy trying some of these for myself nonetheless 😀

[@MrHattrick63]

Your first Bass (blue) was sweet

[@Maicoczpenton]

The real treat here is that he's not playing every single riff/lick above the 12th fret. The instrument was designed for low end grooves, with some tasteful licks thrown in...and somehow that's been lost. Billy Sheehan is the king of showy fancy playing, but he understands that job one is being a BASS player...and he does that very well. Amazing playing Nate Navarro, props, you rock!

[@BREAKocean]

I agree, it's nice to seeing a lot of flash below the 12th fret. It's energetic and groovy

[@rhyme4rhythm]

Will you put up a video for sweep picking eventually? That’s where I’m at in the bass book and I’m having a little trouble picking up. If not no worries I’m going to keep practicing and one day I’ll be good at it. XD

[@cf5823]

Is this same content featured in the 5 string version book? If so, I will purchase the 5 string version. Thanks!

[@Anddrew914]

Who makes the fanned fret bass in this video? That thing sounds great.

[@giancarlopalermo]

Super!

[@JBirdBobbyJ]

So tasty. Nice work, Nate!

[@fifteen8]

Excellent playing. What pickups are on that ESP LTD?

[@SuperTabitha17]

I was wondering where you were you haven’t been posting lately

[@NickShinz]

Sick!

[@DinoFiorenza]

I love you

[@isaiahthomas127]

Your amazing man play that bottom

[@keythedevilssono.f.o.l3981]

Awesome video Nate. What was that blue bass towards the end? It sure was beautiful.

[@NateNavarro]

Thanks! That's a PRS SE Kingfisher.

[@jswm92]

I just purchased a kemper profiler stage, I wonder if I could link source audio through it on top of the crazy affects and amps

[@bbbbojangles2737]

@4:11 B A N G E R @5:53 Needs more headbanging

[@czarpaul01]

How many basses do you own? Lol so many. The blue Warwick is sweet.

[@trevortempleton7025]

can you do tusk by fleetwood mac

[@navsnavsnavs]

That's moderate? Oh, god.

[@littlefire1205]

Do you think maybe you could do a play through of Lethe by Dark Tranquillity with tabs?

[@johnmoser2689]

I have the book now I need my job to let me have my weekends off again...I can never get any time to play

[@catuab4]

🤘😮

[@bellchattin]

OHHHHHH YEEEAAAAHHH

[@trenken]

Anyone know what model that red spector is?

[@cysecgnz]

9:11 what bass is this?

[@aspenlakeorsomethinglikethat]

It's a Harley Benton Enhanced MP-4MN

[@grooveholmes79]

after watching this, I am depressed because I know I never be even 1/16th this good

[@willrouse2351]

💯 x 💯

[@stephenshoihet2590]

I keep forgetting that I have this book 😆

[@travityravis4405]

Ok i'm sold you can have some of my money

[@drafm140606]

👏👏👏👏👏👏🇧🇷

[@bassonthemark8191]

Is there anything you can’t play? 🤯

[@PixieintheMainframe]

New haircut needed.
