For you "teachers" out there: I know how to notate the chords if I want to. This is "my teaching classroom" and I will always teach in the manner I think is best for learning. Thanks for understanding. :)

[@arthurmee]

This is rock solid bass fundamental material presented in Jim's inimitable style which is why I always come back to them.

[@tomek9966]

"Learning the chords/ arpeggios, ON YOUR BASS, is number one." - got that ;) Jim is BACK! Thank You - always learn from You!

Jim, your lessons are rock solid and reminds some of us that those fundamentals are vital. I return to your lessons over and over. I'm trying to master the whole walking bass thing and would love a part 2 of this lesson to help me to understand how you might begin to develop the strict triad over each chord to join my bass line up into a flowing walking bass line. I've learnt lines parrot fashion which is OK, but I'd like to develop to develop my own lines. Thank you, great lessons !

Thanks, Arthurmee, I recommend this: www.stinnettmusicdownloadables.com/Stinnett_Music_Downloadables/follow_book_jazz_bass_walking.html

[@arthurmee]

Ah, thank you for the link. Just what i was looking for.

[@ucopiedyibo1959]

Hey man did you ever get the walking bass down?

[@arthurmee]

@@ucopiedyibo1959 yes I did.

[@arthurmee]

Love the way you included the tritone subs. I forget about using them sometimes. I hear what you're saying about the importance of practice being underestimated. When I was just starting out I was impatient but when I first got a hint that my practice was beginning to have a noticeable effect on my performance that was it. Practice became a real joy. All of it.

[@GrantStinnett]

And nice solid lines!!

[@realbasslessons9356]

Thanks. ;)

[@richardfisher3494]

Jim, that's a dangerously good opening line! I keep coming back to it.

[@realbasslessons9356]

Glad you enjoy it. :)

[@machinacinque]

You're welcome.

[@danielojeda9753]

Hi , im colombian and i have a advise for you. I would like see the chords in the description. Because im dificulty listen all notes. Tanks

[@realbasslessons9356]

Daniel. Use your eyes and your ears. Repetition is the key to developing your ears.

[@GrantStinnett]

He has a whole library of books with the notation in them. The one you want for this example is Creating Jazz Bass Lines. I believe it's about $25.

[@joerushton8714]

Great video, what programme do you use to get your beats and accompaniments?

[@realbasslessons9356]

I play them into Garage Band.

[@jdb123ize]

I think the practicing sounds good

[@jdb123ize]

I love RealBassLessons

[@gkirk5100]

do you change the pickups on your basses ?

[@realbasslessons9356]

In all of my Squires, yes. I use Nordstrand. I also change the controls. I use Richter.
