One of my favourites so far. I hope you get the recognition you deserve one day, these lessons are fantastic!

[@anthonyfloyd9733]

Scott you have helped me for years....thank you for your time! Loyal fan!

[@carlossousa2831]

Great video Scott, Thanks for for the great teachings !!!

[@andrewsmall1193]

Great lesson, Scott! You're a BEAST!!

[@Davesgrooves]

Thanks for the great lesson Scott - Love the tone of that bass.

[@jazznpraise]

You teach so well, sir. I'm dying to see a video of you actually playing... Do us the honours, sir. Thank you. chris

[@pleximanic]

Cool! It's also useful to think horizontally two strings in parallel as well as of thinking two positions at the same time!

[@chalslellogmail]

thanks much Scott !! . much appreciated.

[@klisher]

a trick you can use to learn Cmayor penatonic is the notes form an anagram of the word C.A.G.E.D (descending scale tones C downwards)

[@georgelensgraf643]

thanx man u r good. my songwriting will be more interesting now.

[@sillejin]

I use them for practice since it helps with smoother playing and builds strength in my hands because they lose some grip. When I take them off it seems easier to play though it does change the sound a bit. Scott may be using them because the window is open and it's chilly :)

[@jeff5311]

thanks scott! can you do a lesson on your favorite pentatonic runs / exercises? I sometimes get bogged down in combinations of 5 notes, running out of ideas, or practicing the same modes over and over but with little practical application. not sure if this makes sense or not. maybe i just need to take some lessons from you? ;)

[@ishaanpuri8115]

Hi. Suppose there is a I IV V chord pattern in say the key of C major and I wish to create fills using pentatonics. Does that mean that all the fills will be created using the C major pentatonic only? Or can I use the F major and G major pentatonics as well, whenever these chords are being played.

[@alexfithero]

I'm new to bass why would u wanna start from a different finger position? Is this just a Convenience factor? N u stay in that position without moving everywhere

[@grantmunatsi1856]

as you progress in your bass playing you will realise that there is liberation and expansion of your ability to be creative if you can play across the whole fretboard

[@burnpangilinan]

progressive...

[@denverbass79]

I guess I missed the humor in having a career threatening disability. Maybe you should make jokes about people in wheelchairs just being really tired and needing to sit down. I bet Scott would find that hilarious.

[@denverbass79]

No, he has a medical condition. See his site.

[@sillejin]

You fail with your wheelchair example. A more relative example would be someone who has a disability that isn't apparent. I'll help you out by citing musicians such as Beethoven and Kenny G who are two among many. Those of us with disabilities don't view ourselves as such and have learned to live with them. My quadriplegic friend who lives in a wheelchair actually laughed at your example. You're far too serious for KZbin and sarcasm has claimed yet another victim. Can we all get along?

[@sethowusu345]

good sharing

[@shaunward3691]
