Real Bass Lessons 165 - Making Music with Arpeggios

[@Matthew-ym2bb]

I've just discovered this guy and absolutely love him. Makes learning more fun than anyone else I've come across. I'm sorry to hear of his passing.

[@justinmclean9275]

The Mister Rogers of bass - and I mean that as the absolute highest possible complement. Rest in peace.

[@brandonmalone1893]

That's so true about playing something 300 times isn't enough. Especially in the beginning. It can take awhile to really start to hear subtle differences in things. You don't play something until you don't make a mistake, you play it until you can't make a mistake. I live by that

[@davidwood351]

Thanks for making this series available again. I love these lessons.

[@Bassdriver71]

Thank you, Mr. Stinnett. The arpeggios, connected in jazz, is fun to play, and as always, well explained

[@robertbuffone5207]

You are an excellent teacher. I started playing in 1971 . Had a 69 P bass, and later a 75 P bass.Then in the 90's I made 4 of my own bass guitars, and 3 years ago I made 2 stick upright basses.Your teaching has opened up a new world to me as a bassist. when you teach upright I use my stick basses. when you teach guitar bass I use my customs.

[@realbasslessons9356]

Thanks Robert. Sounds cool to me.

[@dangimalRXD]

I’m watching this in bed before going to sleep and now I feel really guilty for not getting my bass out like he said to do.

[@realbasslessons9356]

You should. Watching is fun, but only practice makes a difference. :)

[@brandonmalone1893]

Your supposed to be able to play it in your sleep lol

[@lambankmenthongni9936]

Thank you. I'm smiling while playing.

[@davidcraig1930]

Many thanks Jim. Another great lesson for ear training... and patience. I find myself so eager to learn new things, I rush through lessons and move on to the next. Your lessons make me slow down a little and let it all sink in a bit more. I really appreciate that about your teaching style.

[@realbasslessons9356]

You are welcome. Don't take the brick out of the oven too soon. ;) . Thanks for the appreciation.

[@kevinr2261]

I love your teaching style so I subbed. Good stuff Sir.

[@realbasslessons9356]

Cool. Thanks

[@tigerscott2966]

Thanks. I will try this very soon.

[@patrickmcbride8139]

Your channel has solely gotten me back into the bass guitar. Ordered one of your funk books cannot wait to go through it.

[@realbasslessons9356]

That's cool. Thanks for your business.

[@iSmurkCity]

Right on man! That’s got a little spicy laid back feel And all your work and art that you express is gratefully appreciated

[@realbasslessons9356]

You are welcome. Glad you like it.

[@greatgable1]

Thankyou. These are appreciated

[@pleromicpastry5445]

I never see people using that finger rest on the lower part of the bass (below the g string, near the neck). It would be neat to see how it's supposed to be used. Thanks for your lessons. You seem like a happy person who loves what he does. God bless.

[@tommyhunter9641]

I really like your videos. Great teaching.

[@doughstarstar4032]

Great stuff I wish I had time to learn every lesson...

[@ivanguiscafre]

Hey man, great exercise. I just got into learning Arpeggios and I'm glad your video is timely. Also when can I get the backing track?

[@ShrimpsTonic]

Tasty P-Bass

[@bigc2nyce]

great video Jim. i really enjoyed it... and my lord... is it just me, or is that bass beautiful ??? mind if i ask what specific model/year that P bass is? I love that color !

[@realbasslessons9356]

Glad you like it. I love this new bass: 2019 Fender Custom Shop Time Machine 1959 Precision Bass Journeyman Relic - Aged Sherwood Green Metallic

[@legolwa]

Dig the sweatshirt!

[@jebziffel2929]

Great stuff, I've tried to go with Talking Bass with Mark Smith and he's enjoyable to learn from but the accent is a bit heavy. I can understand your lessons more.

[@seanculun6067]

I hope he reads this or someone else who has played for a long time...….im new to bass......I have just bought a Yamaha trb its got 24 frets I notice that all these great players who use say a fender have only got 20 frets...…..would that be better for me ? would it make life easier to learn ?

[@realbasslessons9356]

Sean. No easier to learn. How well you learn is a result of how much you practice. Not what bass you play.

[@seanculun6067]

thanks im a fan of yours and will follow you to learn as much as I can so no advantage of a 20 fret ?

[@ItalicAlec]

Online lessons? how to contact?

[@squidito2534]

That’s a serious beautiful bass my friend, what year and series is that precision bass? Custom shop or a real 60s?

[@realbasslessons9356]

"2018 '59 Fender Custom Shop P Bass. "

[@AndiMichael]

That p bass looks so sexy

[@bastardomalo3441]

Why is there a thumb rest under the e string.

[@alexandroscharangionis7602]

@@bastardomalo3441 That's the G string. And it's not a thumb rest. It was designed because Leo Fender thought that bass players would play the instrument with their thumbs, like a strumming guitar, so that was supposed to be rest for the ring finger or pinky.

[@TheRobWay1]

fun!

[@flipflopmcgurt3403]

Thanks for these. I recently picked up my bass again after so many years of frustration. I hear about arpeggios - minors - majors and all that crap. Pentatonic and all these fancy words. Man, i just don't get it. I just play. I still cant understand all this jargon and theory nonsense.
