[Groundribs]

5 star

[TheErnieLeblanc]

You've taken this style to a better place. I'm a fan and a student. Thanks, Grant!

[MusicbyErnieLeblanc]

Exceptional!

[Cornichonification]

so beautiful and groovy!

[RriverJJ]

dificult, two years may be for relax the fingers ..

[skaterope]

you are amazing man :)

thank you very much :)



[AlexKalicinski]

Wierd

I always thought double thumping was two doublet slaps.

And double thumbing was slapping in and thumbing out.

W.e one letter difference in the same word.

Great Vid Grant! Cant wait to see you play at Berklee again!

[taufoofar]

I found this extremely clear and understandable. Very well done for a tutorial video. Cool groove at the beginning, very original.

[IEnjoyBurningThings]

Can somebody help me out with the harmonics part please?

The last two harmonics he uses when he moves up to B is he hitting the harmonics on the fifth fret G string and the fourth fret D string?

[pabliyin29]

AWESOME!

[gz4txb]

i would say, same comment as everytime: AWESOME riff, fun to play, very good narration.

and as usual: played that well u could think its a mashine plaing ;)

5*

[AcousticMusicPage]

when u do the double thumb.. when your goin back up dusunt it scrape up your finger nail?

[gz4txb]

just with a little part of it. makes a slidely different sound but how would you do it else ? :)

[IEnjoyBurningThings]

@AcousticMusicPage Yeah.

[DaroBassman]

I love that guy,awesome!

[JoltMetalJosh]

sounds like a theme to a hawaiin cop show

[MrBassdog]

Action looks high. is it ?

[DaroBassman]

No way...man...that's sound like heaven music

[mgruta]

Muy buena tecnica !!!!

[RageicaNiels]

i find it hard to make a percussive dead note with my left hand like he does. i make like a half note-ish sound blended with a dead note.

[masonksterling]

you are probably the best teacher ive ver seen. i own victor wootens super bass solo dvd and he breaks it down but not enough and you just get right into it. great vid man i subscribed.

[KUNGFUCOWBOYz]

finally a good lesson thats grooves,fuck technique

[Eiende]

I love this percussive approach. Works very well as a substitute for the pop, when using a fretless. To those saying this is cheezy or useless: your ignorance is shining through.

[vonroden]

Cheesiest bass groove ever

[Yontar]

this is far from a useless lesson. took about 30 minutes to learn it. the little you did speak cleared up what i wasn't sure about. very well done. really fun to play and has a real manring/wooten feel to it. i had been wondering how to do a certain technique for a little while, but this cleared that up as well. thanks a lot!

[strexnutz]

Excellent lesson

[kindweed]

awesum lesson! it should say much much much much repitition tho

[knibby69]

your an idiot...

tab? are you serious

[clancywiggam]

Idiot is you? What are you, fucking yoda!

[scottmanke]

@knibby69 ha, criticizing someone when you can't tell the difference between "your" and "you're"

[knibby69]

@scottmanke If i could go back 2 years in time and re-write that i would. I honestly would. >_>

[gbsamurai]

the video teaches oyu how to play it...

[theBloobies]

everything is clear and well done except for the jump from step 6 to 7, theres a bunch of missing stuff between if you watch.

[theturpinator]

holy shit i think this kid is god...

[redpathcc]

I was wondering if there is a reason you have your thumb over the pickups, rather than on the end of the fretboard?

[jmattbassplaya90]

I noticed you wrote this 4 months ago, but I wanted to reply just in case. There`s no real right place to slap. What it all comes down to is tone and playability for the player. I slap there too because it allows my thumb to get under the string more than if I slapped on the fret board. Victor Wooten typically does it there as wll.

[redpathcc]

thanks for the response, when learning this groove i did slap there as well, if only for replication's sake. you do get a slightly different sound which can be good if you're going for it. as it stands i think i still prefer the fretboard on my warwick rockbass corvette.

[redpathcc]

took me a good hour to learn this groove but i got there and i think it sounds great. great lesson thanks

[v3teran]

ahhh!!! something about bass guitars and how they sound give my brain an orgasm. i might prefer a bass guitar instead of a lead guitar. lol i just love how a bass guitar sounds, its sounds so easy, mellow, gives great "bass" for speakers, its the underdog of band music. what else can i say? lol

[SpiralPegasus]

These fingers... really have the funk :P

Sir, don't you know how to play guitar perchance? Or any videos you would recommend?

[mrmusaka]

You are a great teacher!!

Thanks alot!!!!!!!1

[metalviolet]

so..the plicking is first with the index on the D string, then with the middle finger on the G string, and then again plucking the G string with the ring finger? I cant tell..

[Komplement123]

No, i think its an upstroke with the thumb, then a pluck on the d string and then a pluck on the g string!

[tommyIglesias]

GRACIAS ! MUY BUENA DATA ! me encanto el uso de los harmonicos ! voy a practicar !

[ExploBass]

I've seen almost all youtube's videos about bass lessons. You're really the best youtube's teacher!!! Thank you very much! Please post more and more Power lessons!!!

[bassteacher]

Starting in 2009, GMoneyBassist145 will begin doing online teaching/lessons. Stay tuned for details.

[carmen2903]

excellent thanks 4 the time and patience

[wannabeemarlowdk]

you are a great teacher...thank you for the patience it must have taken to make this video!!!!

[hepzibahbaptist]

In the first little bit, is he plucking the G with his Index, then the D with his index, then the G again with his middle. Or is he doing something completely different. I can't tell.

[bassclef80]

how many good bassists there are in this world

[KurtSandford]

A fair few

[melhakim]

This vid must have taken an extremely long time to make. thanks a lot for the effort !

[davidg453]

[wafumeth21]

[bloclvl]

This is the bass line from a song titled "Money Talks." The full version of this song will be released on a CD titled "Project M," Project M, (bass quartet) Michael Manring, Grant Stinnett, Rob Gourlay, and Jim Stinnett will perform debut concert and release CD at NH Bass Fest this summer.
