It’s funny I always considered myself a Ok bass player because I consume my mind with all the fancy stuff that I can’t do but by these standards I’m a great player 😅lol amazing video thank you

[@MusiciansNetworkTV]

Thanks and thanks for sharing! Social media has definitely made us focus more on flash, but its not the meat and potatoes! :)

Listening to this and I immediately thought of John Paul Jones...and then of John Deacon

Great references. Thanks for stopping by!

Do you talk about licks in your course

[@MusiciansNetworkTV]

Not directly in Basscabulary, but a lot of the foundation is laid in teaching different scales from which you can derive patterns. I plan to do more corse work in the future with some licks that are specifically laid out for everyone.

I only play 4 string, so I cant relate to this video 👎I'm out

[@RichieTTL]

Look at Funky Butter's short on his channel talking about how the most legendary bassists play 4 string kzbin.infoo7CSw7nOM7Y?si=xtEjpICRqLyqghxB

[@MusiciansNetworkTV]

Sorry to hear that. Those 4 strings are still there...right under the 5th one. :). I'll throw some 4 string vids in the future as well.

[@MusiciansNetworkTV]

This is true. I think there is a space where we can respect why certain musicians choose their axes. 4 is the OG, 5 added more range for low end, 6 added ease to play chords and leads in a higher register etc. I respect each person's individual preference. Thanks for sharing.

@@MusiciansNetworkTV yes ,but MOST bassists use 4 string,so if ur gonna put a "tutorial " out to the masses ,why not just do the 4 str. honestly it turns some players off,,,so why do it,? (Just a little professional advice and public feedback)😏
