Bass Lessons Online: How to play Two Octave Scales

[@miketucci]

His use of "okay" for some reason is so reassuring lol. Like, not condescending but more of a, see how easy that is? I love this guy's videos.

[@eduruano]

This video is the most useful tool I found on internet to learn two octave scales. Thanks and congrats.

[@lewissennet7832]

I have been playing now for a few months and I view this as the next step in my progression. Even tho this video is 9 years old it is so calm and cognitive. Thank you for this help!!!

[@TheMission316]

Hi Mark! U can't even imagine, how awesome and helpful are your bass lessons!!! :) The same principle works on all 3 positions, right? I mean from 1, 2. and fourth finger. Thanks one more time!!! And greetings from Latvia! ;)

[@talkingbasslessons]

Thanks a lot! Yes you are right. This method works with all 3 positions.

[@debimurray1161]

Like that lesson on octives.that is kinda my style of playing

[@ayrib]

Good lesson Mark as always Thanks again.

[@maxjones2008]

Really can't thank you enough for these videos. You've provided great (FREE!) information in bite size chunk videos the perfect length. Quick question for you. What genre of music would you consider that bit in the beginning? I was trying to figure that out. I guess some form of jazz? Doesn't really sound like smooth jazz, which isn't really jazz anyway, but didn't sound like traditional jazz either with a walk.

[@alistaircornacchio5727]

How do I find a one octave scale chart like the ones you showed for every scale so I can apply the two octave trick to it?

[@nemanjamilosevic2739]

great lesson, thank you

[@shanestyles2993]

Such a useful lesson... thanks mark.

[@2Chillyd]

[@bjornbeng]

[@nathanaelmorrison6073]

[@hsankhala]

great content

[@tommybeckett3179]

wicked intro!

[@alxiroi]

Great lesson.

[@talkingbasslessons]

Cheers Alix

[@57sapke]

Great lessons. For me it's easier to play the Cmaj7 scale with shifting the first finger to the seventh, instead of the third finger and then second finger octave. Is there an idea behind?

[@jakesachs3421]

whats a cmaj7 scale?

[@glugblub7524]

mark you are one of my biggest heroes in this midlife crisis journey

[@prometheuscall5759]

Great information

[@speelbergo]

thanks for the high quality vid. what kind of bass are you playing?

[@talkingbasslessons]

Thanks. It's an Ibanez SR1000. Bought it about 1992. They were fairly popular at the time because Doug Wimbish and Gary Willis used them. Plays very fast. More like a guitar.

[@speelbergo]

it's a great sound, but part of that is because of the great player for sure.

[@aarondavis4341]

Learning anything on the small fretboard of an Ibanez Sr can make everything hard to learn,I found it easier to learn 2 octave scales using a fender style 20/21 fret bass,the bigger fretboard just makes it more open less confusing,idk could just be another one if my weird quirks but whatever,lol....

[@abbasalisaiyed8713]

What's the song at the beginning?

[@talkingbasslessons]

It's not a song. Just an improvisation over the track

[@abbasalisaiyed8713]

@TalkingBass - Online Bass Lessons Right sorry I shouldve been clearer, I was wondering what the backtrack was @0:07, unless you made that yourself as well?

[@talkingbasslessons]

@@abbasalisaiyed8713 yeah. It’s just a pad chord with a basic beat. Programmed it in about 30 seconds.

[@abbasalisaiyed8713]

@@talkingbasslessons ah gotcha thank you

[@JohnMiller-yr6bs]

The bass guitar is a ibenez sr300

[@VulkusTheFirst]

No its not, it's a 1990's Ibanez SR1000.
