@losblancos50895 жыл бұрын
I've been sharing the Bootsy video and doing play-alongs with my students for years, but this adds so much more to the lesson. Really nicely presented and concise, too. Barely an "um" in 15 minutes. Truly well done, and it shows you THE key to holding the funk pocket. Seriously, this is a perfect piece of instruction, that leaves the young player with a solid tool in their box they can use forever in the first 2 minutes. Right on!

In one video you're talking about "not to murder it" by too much pressure on the frets. Oh!!!! No!!! How I murdered my bass for years! What horror for me and my poor instrument...! You saved me! There is no word in no language on this planet that could express what that did to me. I'm so happy and motivated and inspired by your videos that I'm finally playing again every day as much as time permits. You and your videos are unique and lively, positive and so funny, I think I would love to watch them too, even if I had no idea of what you 're talking about. But I have! So I feel like the luckiest one, nothing can break me... or my basses' neck.. You're teaching as if there was no evil, no option to fail, and : you make me laugh and when you leave I still have to smile for a while... 💣💥😁 Music is more than music... 👉🎵...

yeah, I am so glad you added tab to your lesson I love watching your video but at times you go so fast keeping up is frustrating for a beginner. thanks so much for sharing.

Hey Pora, sorry the pace is frustrating, I try to move at a pace that works for as many people as possible in these KZbin videos. I move more methodically and gradually in my full beginner course if you wanna check it out - www.bassbuzz.com/lessons/beginner

Literally never played bass before but I have one and I really like funk. Watched this video and now I can play some basic funk music. Awesome stuff.
