Major Chord Voicings On Bass

[@ralphmanak]

Taking one's own notes is powerful. And there's a nice bonus in this lesson, which in a subtle way gets you to pay attention to what's always under the fingers as you navigate the fretboard.

[@MrDenyarnold]

I've been trying different voicings on the guitar but never thought about trying it on the bass; almost everything is just a basic barr chord. I've never heard it explained this way and my mind is blown! Thanks!

[@dafnislinares2544]

I just discover your channel ... and i'm speechless , you are an amazing teacher , thank you for all of your lessons they're pure gold ....

[@richbrownbass]

Thank you so much, Dafnis!

[@metal_mojon6831]

i already like playing bass, but you sir make it just different and i am here for it… and also, like others in the comments, the timing of this could not be better lol. thnx man!

[@mr.force1036]

How did you know that this is right where I am at, like right now? Thank you, you lessons are very much appreciated. 😎

[@jimfurlough8586]

Thank you, Rich. I'll be watching this one a couple/few times. I've been working on getting more familiar with a new fretless six-string friend. I haven't touched a four string bass from the time I shifted to five string. I never really looked back, but I like the way that you are making your lesson accessible to the four string learners as well. Please keep it up!

[@anbyeastbank319]

Solid instruction, thank you sir! Like 90% of your subscribers, I really appreciate your teaching style and general vibe. So pro!

[@armignac]

algo gogo, I appreciate the 6 string stuff!

[@jennyconrad5651]

Danke!

[@richbrownbass]

Thank you so much, Jenny.

[@Steadyworking864]

I just got me my first ever Signature bass (6-String) from my company Felton Guitars and I appreciate this lesson!!

[@Musicman-i7z]

Much respect!! I’ve been looking forsomeone who is a bassist to cover more about chords. Thanks!

[@simonk2355]

Thanks Rich. I really enjoy watching your videos. Great ideas, explanations and atmosphere. Best wishes from Germany. Keep it going

[@PhullyNo1]

Awesome video. Very soothing for something stressful. At least to me.

[@PeterDStephens]

Thanks

[@keith3229]

Great lesson. Thank you.

[@richardmckinnon8791]

Love hearing a 5,6,8, and love a well played 12.

[@davidclark2213]

Great Lesson-Look forward to the minor chords

[@NoChi4240]

This is exactly what I've been working on lately. I like to hammer-on from the 9th to the 10th with these chords.

[@6minus3minus2]

This is an awesome video breaking down great shapes and voicings. It also has good theory on the side.

[@widonaegele9465]

1 Month ago I bought a 6 String bass by MANNE in Italy, which is very nice bass, because I like to play with chord voicing. So verry nice video! Thank you!

[@VHdiggare]

Tack!

[@richbrownbass]

Wow! This is amazing. Thank you so much, Peter! 🙏🏾

[@TalmageL-pn2pv]

😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊 always makes me happy to watch and learn.

[@bassnsax]

Thank you!!! I *finally* understand what 6/9 chords are, and how they function!

[@richbrownbass]

Thank you, Patrick. I appreciate your generosity, and I'm so glad the lesson helped.

[@PeterDStephens]

Awesome video Rich. Ryan's for your awesome content

[@rajibbanerjee7177]

Gorgeous really effective

[@ianmcelroy5772]

While your KA bass is amazing, your new F Bass is just on another level!!

[@gernblenstein1541]

I love the sound of 1, 5, 9, and 10 but it's a stretch closer to the nut. Another excellent video.

[@Brookzplayzmuzic]

As I guy who just got a 6 banger this helps alot. More lessons for us 6 stringers would be good. Like maybe movable chord shapes

[@westanney1712]

Another great lesson!

[@gambeat8]

great exercise thanks

[@bobwright4945]

Great lesson Rich.

[@josephromano7867]

I have been using what i have learned here and there is a big difference in my playing this really motivates me more and i love it Thank You Joe

[@stephenmitchell2979]

Great lesson Richard Lots of flavours in there brother.

[@maurice7274]

Great lesson God bless brother

[@davedave8608]

first inversions.. root on top chord melodies.

[@silkyb9869]

Yes! Exactly what I wanted too!

[@VHdiggare]

Just the best channel on youtube...simple as that.🎸🥰

[@jeffallmond5030]

Recently got a six string and love its sound. Out of the box (add battery) and tuned it sounds amazing for a budget bass to learn on (Glarry)

[@zombiehunter374]

You still have the six string Glarry? How is it?

[@hammurhead1]

Hey Rich! Great Love is being able and willing to share something that you really LOVE with others. I feel'ya. For yours shines brightly and far beyond your talent which is more than formidable to say the least. Keep doing whatcha' doin, which is doing good! Just wanted to let you know that when my Platinum drops, which it will soon... Hey Hey Hey, it could happen! Anyway, I wanted to let you know that you are near the top of my giving list if not at it's peak! And I don't even play Bass!? Thanks! And Much Love Out...

[@bernieconatser1028]

Fantastic, thank you!

[@jordandalton9639]

Love everything you do brother, you, gave a great talk at my college online over lockdown in Cork and I really appreciated the experience 🙏🏽

[@connerharris402]

Wow perfect timing Rich! Ive been looking online for a lesson on this very topic. And who better to deliver it

[@book3100]

I play a five string mainly, but this fits in quite closely with what I've been doing lately, deconstructing guitar chords and applying them to bass. That aside, that's a gorgeous guitar you have! Sounds really nice too. I've been 6syring curious lol. How is it tuned? B to B? Thanks for these insights. By the way, "This Lotus Ascension" destroyed me man. Just beauty. I'm buying the record.

[@carmelorosa1897]

Do you offer private bass lessons? The structure of the teaching and topics are awesome.

[@unaufadox-productions]

Great video. I have just started your groove course on SBL but, I'm also working on chords. Looking forward to experimenting with chords :)

[@travisreed5965]

Amazing - That Beautiful Bass Sounds Gorgeous Just Before The Intro - Thank You For Rocking The C Major - Really Helped Me Out - Now, Most Of This, All Of This, Is Beyond My Skill Set - My Written Notes Will Help But I Am Far From Applying This - But Options Are A Good Thing - Looking Forward To Slowly Pieces These Cords & Shapes Under My Fretting Hand - Always Appreciate Your Style & Demeanor Mr Rich Go Team Canadian Neighbors, Cheers

[@jagged_little_phil]

Rich, if you were to put together an exhaustive book and/or master class on 6 string bass guitar chords, voicings, modal relationships, playing "outside" the expected scale/chord relationships, and maybe even taking some jazz standards and/or Beatles tunes and creating solo performances on 6 string (with bassline, accompaniment, and melody played together like a finger-style guitarist would do), I would be FIRST in line to purchase this! Been searching Google, and this kind of resource for 6 string bass just doesn't exist, or it's really hard to find.

[@paulneugebauer7768]

In the first few minutes I was having OCAJ exercise flashbacks and kept wanting to go to the sharp 11. The 4th be darnded!

[@dwightwignall6048]

Rich. Do you give private lessons it’s for my 16 yr old son.. used to watch you with the A-Team. 🙏🏽

[@dbass8221]

Great video, what interface do you use to go into the computer and do you have any other tech suggestions? All the best

[@richbrownbass]

I'm using the Scarlet 4i4 by Focusrite. But I'm still figuring things out on my end. All the best to you!

[@mrmarksmeets]

How do you recommend remembering the numbers of the chord? (5 and octave is easy) I’m looking at some chords I’ve written the notes out for right now and (I’m looking at G Harmonic Minor) I have all my note names but not the number that note may apply too

[@thetoddkeith]

Love this channel! You're a great teacher. Good call on not doing the pdf thing. It wouldnt increase your subscriber count and would be a ton of work and you wouldnt want to make videos anymore and that would suck. It's not that type of channel. Keep it old school the vibes are better.

[@lightbearer36]

Does anyone know if the song at the end is on Spotify or KZbin? I know it was old intro, but could never find it anywhere.

[@c4arschfisch51]

Why you have a Capo on 1fret? Are you in Standart tuning?

[@brandiethrift4140]

Meeeeeeee 🎸

[@mrmarksmeets]

I want to do this a huge flavour…that flavour is hot…hot bass video!

[@khabezelamumbo3373]

❤👌🇿🇦

[@dylancarther9627]

What ia the intro music

[@richbrownbass]

It's an original theme song for the channel. I threw it together in GarageBand.

[@StyricM]

Excellent lesson! Thank you again for sharing your wisdom! Thank you 🙏🏾

[@mirnowoszycki3545]

It is totally without sense what you show here. This kind of playing can be listened only by others bassists but you cannot show it while band playing. It us funny but 40 years ago there were bassists who could play chords in usable way, in band. You are doing this wrong dude

[@johnwhitmore2531]

Thanks

[@richbrownbass]

Thank you so much, John!
