Please do a video on how to identify chords by ear. Would be awesome.

[@BassCampOfficial]

👏🏻🥈 good to know!

[@Cybrtronlazr]

​@raaahlancien but by the time you figure it out it's changed to a different chord 😆

[@AlexandarShmex]

I have an answer, use two applications - Harmonomics and especially Functional Ear Trainer. If you do it daily and keep progressing, in a year or two you will be able to hear individual notes in chords. It can literally take you to world-class, elite ear level.

[@wreckinbal]

Using a piano can be a good place to start. It’s easier to identify specific chord tones than on bass, also many bass chord patterns leave out certain notes (3rd/5th/7th) that can gives clues as to the specific chord.

[@wreckinbal]

@@AlexandarShmexI just looked into functional ear trainer… it’s basically the same as the first 2 semesters of ear training that I took in college 20 years ago. Crazy how an app can replace an entire college course for free! Thanks for introducing me to this, I’ll be honing up my ear training skills for sure!

[@CharlesBerthoud]

Gonna go and practise this right now!! 🔥

[@thecornerkid402]

Why do you slide out of most of your phrases? Is this just a habit or is there a tonal reason behind it?

[@davedave8608]

me three

[@Turk656]

100% would love a video on identifying chord progressions by ear!

[@bryanassissilva3674]

Good Afternoon Mr Charles. I recently found both channels and because of you I buy a Bass and learn your great techniques Keep your great work. Greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷

[@BassCampOfficial]

That’s awesome to hear, congrats on the new bass!

[@MrDaneBrammage]

Guitarists often get away with ignoring the chords and just playing diatonic scales because the rest of the band is covering the harmony. This chord tone approach is more necessary for bass players because when it's time for a bass solo, everybody else has a bad habit of laying out and leaving the bass to carry the weight of the harmony and solo at the same time. If you're playing chord tones, you're automatically implying the harmony even if nobody else is.

[@GameDevMadeEasy]

Learning how to identify chords by ear would be extremely useful. Especially with the 7th, 9th, sus2, sus4, augmented and diminished chords. Being able to hear which inversions of chords are used would also be beneficial. Something I have zero clue on how to learn and gets very confusing when the same chord can have like 5 different names based off the context they are used in.

[@MrAflac_1]

What i like to do is literally just learn songs by ears, but when learning it, you wanna bring out all the roots and figure out if it’s either major, minor, diminished, etc. by learning the fills, or listening to what other instruments are playing. Starting out, learning the fills would be more beneficial. But a lot of it is from just memorizing the sound of each chords, which takes a lot of experience. But learning the fills should eventually get you better, if you do the method consistently. This is currently my method rn, and learning theories while putting those theories i learned into practice by learning songs have helped me identify chords a lot. Tho i think charles would definitely have a better method than mine

[@TristanDelroeux]

There is no secrets to this, like every other skills you have to practice it. For every chord you have to find the root of the chord and then find all the added/altered notes by finding the intervals with the root. At first, you could try to play these chords on a piano to see how it sounds and then try to sing every note.

[@GameDevMadeEasy]

@@TristanDelroeux I think the part that really makes it confusing is that there are 3 note and then extended chords which adds more notes; Sometimes the name of the chord changes and others, it stays the same. Then there is the dominant note sound may not be the indicator of the chord's name itself.

[@Tragic_TV]

THANK YOU SO MUCH CHARLES I CANT BELIEVE YOU DID THIS

[@BenVDT]

Love hearing/seeing lots of videos with your signature when I wait for mine to be delivered.

[@michaelanthony9068]

Yes I would love a video on identifying chords by ear !!! Songs like Isn’t She Lovely. A 1-4-5 of course is a no-brainer. Thanks !

[@brunorocher8414]

Thanks à lot again for this very interesting vidéo, you are truely a great technician an also a good teacher

[@margaretoganda6971]

This is such a clear explanation, Ive been struggling with this for months..THANK YOU!!!

[@pgrvloik]

You're an outstanding bass player and an excellent teacher too.

[@tunesarms2586]

Great video Charles!! Been playing recreationally for a long time but never practice soloing. I find it intimidating. This will help a bunch 😁🎸👍🏻

[@bassman2play]

Thank you you have a great way of explaining good stuff 🤙🏾

[@carriejohnson3659]

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Finally, I found an explanation that makes sense to me. This is a great approach to practicing solos.

[@adityarao5721]

Please don't stop making videos like these❤ love it when advise come from you ❤🎉

[@nickpedebone5060]

Great vid, you soloing so effortlessly while teaching put a smile on my face.

[@raaahlancien]

Thanks ! I love you dumbed it down to build good bloc of comprehension, to smarten it up

[@JustThatGuyCaleb]

Please do a video on how to write your own bass solo I'm really curious on how you would do it step by step

[@Starck1345]

This guy is not only good playing, but is an awesome teacher as well!. I think he's a modern version of Victor wooten.

[@Nathan_North]

Great lesson Charles! Thanks 🙏🏻

[@moeb4348]

Placing the Bass in the trash really cracked me up! Made me choke on my own spit! Great lesson!

[@agauthier-r]

Great quick and simple vid Charles, thanks! Looking forward on how to spot chords, cheers!

[@ncbasspraise]

Charles, You are an excellent bass guitar teacher. Thank you.

[@jamalpyfrom4199]

I’ve beeeeeen looking for something like this for while

[@tbasshandyman7610]

great lesson your are a very good teacher

[@jacobatkinson6584]

A simple diagram of the chord shapes would be helpful to visualize the notes on the finger board. Great stuff, thanks.

[@minipily1841]

thank you master charles 🙏

[@EpicBassTime_]

Great video as always, you’re doing such a great service thank you ❤❤

[@driftingalong30]

Identifying cords by ear would be amazing 🤩

[@guascamsb8138]

Thank you very much, you explain everything so well. But going from step 4 to step 5 is a huge jump, like, where did all that come from? I know where the notes came from, but how did you come up with those rythms? 😮

[@Thomas-km4rd]

Always incredible advises! Thanks Charles!

[@swconnexion]

this is gold ! thank you !

[@DrowningTimeOfficially]

pls give us the ear training video! 😅 how do you analize the track? ❤

[@testingtrail]

Really helpful, thanks Charles!

[@johnhewett9483]

Great!! Aleays been a problem for me. Following this is very helpful

[@AWM8]

Very interesting, thanks for the tips! I'm a guitarist trying to get comfortable on a bass.

[@rationalmuscle]

Charles is a phenomenal talent, for sure. He has taken slap and tap to an entirely new level of musicality. As a jazz guy, he's not the greatest "soloist" however, meaning improv finger-style and all that - obviously you can't be great at 'everything'. So that makes this lesson even more valuable, especially to beginners. Very applicable, and it's not taught from a level you'll never achieve (unlike his ridiculous slap and tap stuff... godlike!) Another GREAT teacher, probably the best, is Scott Devine. Just a superb soloist and teacher - a rare combo. Thanks Charles.

[@eduardocarrillo5669]

Excelente clase, muy didáctica y esclarecedora. Muchas gracias por compartir.

[@edc3020]

Great lesson, thank you! Got my bass, gotta go!!

[@micheldindaine8403]

VERY WELL EXPLAIN, because the chord tones are the most "sexy" notes of the music after all.

[@jazzman0173]

Thanks really helps !

[@kannabianka]

I'd really love a video about identifying chords by ears!

[@yee-haa]

Thank you!

[@BuddyguyBret]

[@ronperu2149]

Super relate

[@RansfordAcquah-hy7jd]

Thank you boss

[@Sebastian_Mroczek]

In the step 7, when adding non chord tones do you think of different scale positions? Chord extensions, or do you have some other method of visualization ?😄

[@chrisggoodwin777]

A Wooten fan soloing over Isn't She Lovely... Lol seriously though, great lesson! I've worked on soloing more since I started playing 6 string a couple of years ago, and all this is definitely helpful

[@UltimateSessionBassGym-ns2cy]

Great stuff 👍

[@creeperball3367]

im not even a bassist but damn i need to practice this

[@mikearkeit2457]

Please do the video on how to identify chords by ear please 🙏 🙏 🙏

[@gabrieltettamanti1862]

Thank you so much, Charles! I loved the video. I love this project 🙌❤ TAP LIKE BUTTON!! 😂

[@denisblack9897]

Kinda not fair that I came to understanding this over the course of 2-3 years and kids can pick it up with a 10min video😅 You are the best, dude! Love you big time!

[@WillemdeMoor-pz3kt]

That and what are chords exactly because I have been playing for a few years yet haven’t progressed much because I didn’t know where to start, if you could make a video saying what chords are and what notes to play and not to play when you see them would be very helpful

[@Andyw1228]

Long time ago for soling, I looked only at the root notes of a riff and neglected them thirds and then looked up the key which has all those root tones in it. On guitar it’s normally C/a or G/e and I didn’t know of modes then. Most of the time it worked out neglecting the thirds, because they were - as all songs were made by either me or my guitarist buddy- automatically in the right alternation, otherwise we felt that something is wrong. But we did run into problems when in C a B was played- We didn’t know of seventh chords then, Humanity has such a rich source of information by their fingertips now, I wonder what I would be now, I we had that back then. Maybe I would have become a professional musician or my whole band. We all had talents, but different motivations and intentions, but all had a huge interest in making music. Now I only play guitar or drums once per month….😮

[@OgagaOkwah.]

Thnaks for this

[@BagbiBright-bl7zy]

Please Charles do a video on ear training, to detect chord tones with ear

[@julienrocks7051]

That was very helpful. Thank you so much 😊 I subscribed and I’m waiting for more bass theory training tips !

[@milkshaaake3640]

[@nickpedebone7455]

Where can I find the link to the backing track?

[@Roberto-nn6kb]

it would also works with 6 string short scale picollo bass i belive

[@ericromano892]

super!!!!!

[@lunatico981]

I am a beginner in theory and I really struggle with this chord or tones that make the chords. for eg. I cant wrap my head around how the E7 is made out of 0 (i get that) but then 4?? why 4? and 2 and 5 on third string?? how? I hear it does sound great but how It is possible when I google E7 bass there is nowhere else that same tone progression. this is one example of tons of so different examples on same matter I am always finding and going mad... what am I overlooking here? pls help...

[@barisax96]

I heard that "bass solo" is when the rest of the band stops while the bass player just keeps doing what they have been doing all along. and everyone else can get that conversation in.

[@jpguthrie6669]

If bassists could play solos like that, who needs a guitarist? And, you might need a second bassist to play behind the first bassist's solo.
