Jazz was the Gateway - In Conversation with Sean Hurley /// Scott's Bass Lessons

[@mikemcgibney]

Sean comes across as such a with-it, together dude. Always has great advice, is interesting to listen to, and above all, a great player! Very inspirational.

[@JackRoan]

Sean is such a great dude, love that guy.

[@haneyhanes]

This really hits home for me. My father is a great singer/guitar player. I grew up doing the same thing! Couldn't go to a hang because, I had a gig with the 50+ club LOL. Now I make my living playing bass and couldn't be more grateful.

[@kickbiker7920]

Also .... those podcasts are awesome. I listen to these more than music recently.....

[@nmssis]

man, i love these stories.

[@lifeonfourstrings]

Just finished listening to the full 2 hour podcast, walked into work and Paper Doll is being played through the system for sound check. Great story Sean, nice work.

[@RaceTeq17]

yeah yeah yeah... yeah yeah

[@ArthurStone]

Thanks Scott; it's all sinking in slowly : -)

[@NorCalGuy]

Wow. Great story.

[@TheBobstephenson]

That guy…. The music teacher. Did he mention his name, having been such a help to him. ???

[@jimmmmybrady]

Scott,this is going to sound strange.I have to ask,what is the story behind that little Wooden Chair? The one behind Sean with the Harp shaped back.I have a very similar chair that my Grandmother gave me years ago.

[@mimakake]

great interview. Again. ;)

If God Himself told me I could have any ONE bass on the planet... I’m not so sure I wouldn’t take this P bass. Even more so than the Bass of Doom... it just has “that” sound!!

[@grozwald]

I'm trying to absorb the story, but I keep getting distracted by that sexy P-bass.

[@wcalimese]

lol facts

[@elmanitasdeplomo]

Nice glow in the dark shins!

[@memeteamdreamteam3990]

Can you do more slap bass lessons? I just can't figure it out.

[@Finnvbot]

+xLittleLady Dolphinx I'd recommend checking his beginner slap lessons out if you haven't already. I'm not an expert in slapping (I main a fretless with flats - ain't nobody got time fo' slappin'; when you can mwaaah fo' days) but this technique requires a great deal of left/right hand synchronisation. Muscle memory is king when it comes to learning any instrument so start slowly and give 110% focus on your technique, for it's better to do something properly once than to fumble it five times. Hope it helps, cheers!

Bummed that guy didn't play a single note during that video.

[@JackRoan]

+David Rider Check out the latest nobleamps video. Sean plays a lot of great sounding notes. :)

[@davidsosa7618]

This guy does a lot of talking, hardly any playing

[@McDoinky]

"conversation"

[@ericfricke4512]

That's how an interview works.
