[howtoplaybassgood]

That's a super cool video!

[Uippo1234]

Nice easy blues pattern :D

[marstuber96]

[SebastienHamilton]

this probably sounds stupid, but im having a lot of dificulty seeing what fingure your using on each note... but hey maybe im just a stupid fag youtube poster who actually watches the videos to learn something...

[Filipe191]

@SebastienHamilton

Usually its what feels right on your handFor example if you can do the whole thing with your hand still the better and stuff like that.For example in this case you use pointing finger middle finger and pinky because it makes your hand almost still. hand movement.I know this sounds bad, but be lazy, do it the easy way for the hand(not the wrong way, keep your hand in the correct position) but use the fingers that make sense to youbad explanation butthebest I can do withotbass

[Hargy69]

Isnt this just 12 bar blues??

[pdonny01]

If anyone asks for the tab on this then you need to go to spec savers!

[Slagdar]

[jonnd272]

Turn your frikkin bass up!

[JamesIsAFatAss]

[TubaChick77]

@JamesIsAFatAss neither is your spelling

[resonantchamber]

ytmember1 its in the key of A so the 5 fret on the E string...

[Govindaservant]

What makes you think that anyone give a damn what you have to say. Every bass video is filled with comments from the ignorant. How about saying thanks for posting or shut the hell up. Take your self importance and use it to make your own videos. I notice that the people who pipe up about someones skill level or their perspective of the music dont make their one videos. Peanut gallery.......

To AVC thanks for posting

[sleepylynard]

you suck why are you giving lessons

[mcknife25]

@sleepylynard

[asemacintosh]

[Doderhultarn89]

[Grindfucker1337]

he doesn't use the ring-finger...

USE ALL OF THE FINGERS OF THE FRET HAND!!

[joepic85]

Dude.. wtf you talking about??? Hes is doing a 1-3-5. You don't use your ring finger in that pattern

[will888hawes]

sooshyiskool i think u will find if u look closley that's defiantly' A' dude. =)

[XxXquietXxXscreams]

i really wish these lessons had some voice explaining what he is playing.

[anurse63935]

If you will invest in some "flat wound" strings, you'll get less string noise and the sound is better...>But good instruction

[sooshyiskool]

this isnt in A tho... it starts in G and ends in G. so its in G

[eliottttoile]

It's in A, the camera is just pointed towards a part of the bass

[brummeister1]

Good Vid!

[smittysp61]

sounds like jimmy jazz by the clash lol

[checkabreak]

[Filzli85]

Sounds like an easy Version of Johnny b. good

[caviano]

????

not at all....

[gabsanchez]

well it uses the same notes so I guess it sounds kinda like johny b good

[ram1s4ever]

I think a walking bass line isn't just the 1st, 3rd, and 5th. Its the 1st, 3rd, 4th, #4th, and 5th.

[Dawkain]

Yes indeedy

[paulomonnerat]

@ram1s4ever Agree. He´s doing a "tríade", in portuguese. I don´t know how to say it in english though.

[gpoop23]

are you kiddding? triads were the first thing i learned at bass guitar lessons! but for people who didn't get lessons i guess this would be usefull. nice fretboard!

[haroldguardian]

i cant hear you!

[legalrule]

Hello,

Hey who are you? I finally found an instructor who actually teaches correctly!!

This is fantastic please post more videos and please don't change the format.

[isizo]

調和 at 12th fret

[angelofshred]

when you said beginners you werent joking

[DriverFan1]

Seems easy

[ytmember1]

And what fret are you starting on? Photography needs to show that if this is intended to be instructional....

[smitty01209]

Firstly, the fifth fret.

He explains that this is played in the key of "A".

Once again, with walks and patterns, it doesn't matter what note you start on.

The pattern is the same no matter what you do.

[guilaspilas]

@ytmember1 "A" man.. Test the sound on your bass until one of the "A's" match..

[Sp3ci41K]

@ytmember1 Well it's in A so I would assume that the pattern starts on A which would be the 5th fret.

[behemoth6079]

@ytmember1 It's in the Key of A. take a wild guess.

[ytmember1]

Yo, why not post the tab on your Website? All I saw there was guitar stuff and Bass stuff..for sale only.

[icrynuxfire]

I'd go with a Dean or Ibanez if you're just starting.

[asegui07]

Thank you.

[beatlecrazy94]

i am getting ready to buy a bass. i am a begginer at it and i want to get something good that will last for years, i was thinking of getting the hofner violin bass. what brands or bass's r recomended for begginers?

[HxCFTW]

Ibanez or epiphone are good

[beatlecrazy94]

hey, thnx, i went with the epiphone sg bass. thnx again

[kentuckymonkeys]

DANELECTRO

[rhcpkicks1]

get a squire by fender

[Anjohl]

Beatlecrazy, I just recently switched to the bass myself, and I originally bought a cheaper bass as well...but my teacher beleives that buying a more expensive, quality instrument that will last you a few years is more important than getting a cheap one starting out, unless you arn't sure if you want to play bass.

I ended up returning my Squier towards a Mexican Fender Jazz bass, which was around $500.

[Kubasdz]

Nice:) Thanks for this lesson!
