[@stevefoudray487]

I’m glad I found your channel. I been missing bass with groove in a sea of tap and pop ad naseum.

[@ebassguitar]

Awesome - look forward to hearing about your progress steve!

[@henryfreeman7748]

Thanks for the jump start this video boss!!! 😎

[@ebassguitar]

The pleasure's mine! Cheers!

[@alonsogt]

Great lessons and tips. Clear and complete instructions. Thx!

[@ebassguitar]

Fantastic!!!

Hi James nice touch to move the same blues progression up and down the bass neck i stared this similar technique on songs that have a repetitive bass line with some interesting effects As always great lesson cheers John

[@ebassguitar]

Simple stuff can be so effective!

[@JesusChrist5000]

Good tips. Similarly, I have noticed that even a simple root and fifth bass line (usually in gospel and bluegrass) can be made very interesting by playing octaves of the root and fifth

[@ebassguitar]

Absolutely... there’s so much just in those notes!

[@MerlePeters]

Good stuff James, looking forward to the Blues Accelerator course to put more of these tips into practice.

[@ebassguitar]

Awesome! Should be fun :-)

[@halloween5703]

brilliantly simple and simply brilliant!!

[@ebassguitar]

My pleasure!

I think there are so many blues lessons for beginner and they learning all the same beginner blues bass lines, the same shapes to use and the same chord progression. As a beginner you learn a simple shuffle blues riff, maybe with some variations and thats it.

[@ebassguitar]

That's a brilliant insight! Cheers!

[@Zain-xg4kn]

but I dont what are the notes after you press note C then F then G.

[@ErixSamson]

What I miss: rich library of good blues patterns / riffs, useful and sounding fills, and relevant rhythm variations

[@ebassguitar]

We’ll check out my blues Accelerator - you will not be short ;-)

[@ErixSamson]

@@ebassguitar I actually bought your blues book, but I had no time to read it yet :-(

Repeating shapes/fingering over the 1, 4 and 5 patterns.

[@ebassguitar]

Try adding fills?

My Blues Bass Playing Always Sounds The Same, -- because I'm stuck in The Box Shape...

[@ebassguitar]

This lesson should help!

[@henryfreeman7748]

Redundancies simply the same patterns HELP!!! 😲

[@ebassguitar]

What help do you need specifically Henry?

[@omg_wtf]

A little less game show host would be good

[@ebassguitar]

Thanks for sharing. Thankfully I don’t agree!

[@markrodgers2976]

Dont sweat the negative comments, James, your lessons have been highly useful, and (thankfully!) get right to the point, unlike some others. So keep on keepin' on !

[@jacobrahr7091]

Suspicious is all I can about your business. I've bought books from you, but I don't get any answers to emails. And you keep on spamming my email several times a day even though I numerous times tried to unsubscribe. It's a shame... I liked the books. But why can't you leave me alone?

[@ebassguitar]

Hi Jacob James here... I’m sorry your having that experience... Can you email our customer service team on [e-mail] so we can investigate what’s happening? We never knowingly not respond to emails so I’d like to look into what’s going on. Cheers James

[@jacobrahr7091]

@@ebassguitar Hi James. Thanks for your reply. The problem is that I've already done that, and I didn't receive any reply. I've also tried to unsubscribe several times without any luck. What to do? I would like to continue following your channel and buying your books, but I don't like those many many emails (commercials).

[@ebassguitar]

Hi Jacob Just get in touch with our customer support team on the email I gave you above and they will hunt down the issue. Are you not interested in taking any of those programs we offer? The books and channel are just the tip of the iceberg! I will ask the team to look out for your email. Or leave an email here and we’ll investigate

[@ebassguitar]

You should have had an email from our support team :-)
