Ive been playing 40 yrs now. I still love these types of lesson. Brings me back to whats important.👍

[@apostlej.k.diamond4119]

I appreciate the way you actually slow the lesson down and don't try to show the World how great you play.. You teach ut as if all of your audience are beginning. Thanks for understanding how to teach.

[@richardhetherington2837]

Imho this is by far the best lesson for extending out the major pentatonic scale on the fretboard, with some great ideas on how to use it. All taught at the perfect pace - what a great teacher!

[@montaguemcpherson111]

I am a beginner and just started to learn the pentatonic scales. This was just difficult trying to fill in back tracks. You just opened my mind. Please keep on posting.

[@dennisfullerton4827]

It takes a lot of time finding someone to show you something as simple & plain as you ! Thanx for you input it’s great ! Everyone out there it seems want to show how good they are within showing you something & their egos get in the way of teaching

[@ScottWhitley]

I appreciate that!

[@michaelhaskins7205]

One of the best discoveries on how to use intervals to develop your musical skills and ear to build your bass guitar technique! 👈🏿😲

[@julianmorrisco]

I am an experienced musician, played bass in a number of signed bands in the 80s (although bass was always my ‘other’ instrument, despite always loving the purity of it) and I’m enjoying going through these videos for ideas and concepts I might have missed or knew intuitively without knowing that idea as a ‘thing’. Thx.

[@javiersantos5501]

great Vid. Thank you for explaining it that clear. Thx

[@Chriswoodworker]

What a cracking lesson Scott. Your sitting on a gold mine of knowledge. Time to cash in....

[@ScottWhitley]

Glad you enjoyed it Chris and thanks very much for the comment! I'm just near completing my first bass tuition course, which I will be selling, so let's see?! Cheers, Scott.

[@hamkaab3634]

i’ve seen alot of your previous lessons…but for this one I really want to say many many thanks for that extra effort making the zoom in to the hands for clearer view demonstrating the finger works whilst showing your face explaining in the top box emphasizing the details… making it easier to follow. 👍🏼👍🏼🙏🏼

[@ScottWhitley]

Hi there - hope you're well!! Thanks so much for the positive feedback - means a lot and it's great to hear it's working!! I'll always strive to make improvements as I go. Once again thank you for commenting, very much appreciated.

[@anthonygualtieri4519]

Really interesting and colorful moves. You explain very well.. Thank you

[@orwedon]

I just subscribed to your channel. Let me just say something you already know: you’re an OUTSTANDING teacher!! Kudos.

[@ScottWhitley]

Wow, thank you!

[@robertrenteria7894]

Thanks a lot. You have validated my habit of just noodling around when I first pick my bass in the absence of a structured lesson plan. I love to just listen to the bass as I monkey around. What a soothing instrument!! I do have some structure in my practice, but I reward myself with a few minutes of play. I'm glad I happened to search for a major pentatonic scale. Thanks again

[@ScottWhitley]

Great to hear! Cheers, Scott.

[@davidvitale9338]

Very very useful information Scott - thank you!

[@ScottWhitley]

Cheers David - my pleasure! :) Scott.

[@elormferg432]

Very helpful, God bless you, it is an eye opener

[@OyeChico.x8]

This is great!!! I know it will take take to sound like that but it’s a great exercise to improvise.

[@anbyeastbank319]

Very nice lesson! Bonus tip is a great suggestion for when you are warming up or just noodling too.

[@ScottWhitley]

Glad you enjoyed it Anby and you're right, re the bonus tip! Cheers, Scott.

[@richardrichard5409]

Loving the top left box for appropriate pentatonic bass face, nice touch😉. I've been playing bass 13 years and just had a eureka moment.....for whatever reason I've alway found it harder to play major pentatonic over a major chord, being a funk disco man maybe? 😎😍😍👍

I notice you are only using three fingers of your fretting hand, I'm accustomed to using all four, is that going to be a problem for me?
