[@JoseVazquez-ru1nn]

so many potheads in the chat wondering if the teacher is high instead of picking up their bass and trying these grooves out! to my surprise, he's not, but if he was, so what? how does that affect what you're here for? Pick up your bass and practice! I learned a ton and you've got very positive vibes. subbed.

[@videoschiche8367]

Great lesson, Flavio, thanks a lot for treaching us the basics of Salsa. And you're playing is bang on, right in the pocket...

[@Cmpateb]

Thank you for showing me another way to expand my musical knowledge on Bass lines I have been playing boleros rancheros . TX style music past my 10 yr mark ... And music is infinite and never ending

[@humzatebai]

Amazing walk through, thank you, you're a gentleman with a bad ass bass

[@flavio___lira]

Hamza Tebai thanks so much, Hamza!!

[@josephwalton487]

I like "letting the vibe flow" and jammin' too my man lol. Nothing better. Great tone brother, and playing is spot on.

[@blancolirio]

Great job explaining the BASICS and the importance of the FEEL.

[@flavio___lira]

Thanks my friend!

[@jerryericsson5194]

Flavio, great job and especially your pedagogic approach to teaching this. You´re right on the spot! I think you are doing a great thing here teaching us the basic variations of latin bass. Now all of us can manage through a latin song on the gig without looking bad! Keep up the good job! God Bless /

[@flavio___lira]

Jerry Ericsson thanks so much for the great feedback, my friend, really good incentive to keep putting out more videos!

[@johnhendricks8140]

Killer salsa grooves, makes me want to play bass.

[@JoseVazquez-ru1nn]

3:47 to 4:07 so much fun to practice. can you do a whole lesson on just this groove and expand upon it? I'm really feeling it! Edit: the last one too! more challenging, but when i slowed it down to 0.5x video speed i got the groove. Thank you so much!!

[@jimparfitt2330]

Very Useful!!! That second variation is what i needed to hear. Anticipating the next chord on the 4 is so strange, and what i need to practice!

[@lukeschroeder2633]

Great way to break up the different levels of complexity. Sounds great man!

[@bluarcher5941]

omg.....I'm lovin' this. Such good stuff. I've been a fan of those bass lines for a long time and it's super to actually see someone break it down for what it is and how to count it. Let me put this Carvin 5 string to work.. : )

[@andyl8730]

Hes smoking salsa wtf Lmao

[@utamistabys4312]

[@rothloaf1980]

A percussionist friend got me into salsa bass back in the 90s and it changed my life. Instead of walking all over with harmony, I focused on playing roots and fifths and variations of rhythm. Always say I started thinking like a conguero... How much can I do with 3 drums?

[@healingmusic7991]

Can this dude be more stoned?! :) I mean it as a good thing! :)

[@flavio___lira]

Haha I actually wasn't... it's a family thing, the chill eyes with the chill tone ;)

[@Kassiusday]

I like to play salsa BASSLINE // on New Style of “ Good times” of chic the bass line turns once in salsa mode //is very good !!! THANK YOU TO HAVE SHOWED ALSO THE NEW STYLE OF BASS IN SALSA MUSIC TODAY WHICH TO ME IS A MIXTURE OF THE FORMER SYNCOPE ONE AND FUNKY PATTERN MODE ...is quite Funny ( ie Miakel BLANCO STYLE GROUP ).

[@flavio___lira]

Thanks a lot Kassius! That's correct, the timba guys really put on many funky elements on the tumbao, I love it! What other kind of tutorial would you like to see on the channel?

hola ¿podrías subir otra vez el link de la partitura por favor? está caído

[@1983experience]

El bajista mas feliz del mundo

[@ofdrumsandchords]

Does it make a difference for the bass if it's based on la clave de son, or la clave de rumba ? I find la clave de rumba quite confusing because they play the & of 4 on each side of the clave, speaking mostly about the arrangement of horns and voices.

[@ICBAND]

Thank you 🖤

[@assimilatednative4803]

Nice bass

[@neemazardkoohi3733]

That bas is the 55-02 deluxe

[@flavio___lira]

tipico809 right on! Love this bass, I tried it out side by side with the Fender Elite Jazz Bass and they have different characteristics but deliver the same punch and low end! Definitely recommended

Flavio Lira Maybe about bass chord (not licks) for soloing and playing along without other instrument :D

[@flavio___lira]

Tirza Mercyana nice! I like doing that a lot, good idea. So stay tuned 😀

Believe that Jesus Christ is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, and you will be saved..Be baptized and repent of your sins. Repent simply means to turn away from your sins. God loves you and so do I.
