  • Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I enjoyed playing that and it made me sound like a blues man!

  • Ay Assholes....it waz 5 months ago.......im better now jeezz shit stop bashin

  • thanx carl shephard :) i love me some blues and bass

  • lol, got some tiny hands to be playin bass. or you just don't have a good "bass stretch". but that's just me being picky.

  • even if its difficult to understand, thats a great tool for learning how to expand your ability to create basslines. and its based off the Gminor scale, the way i see that is because the minor third on the g string is A#/Bb/3rd fret on g string.

  • Why is he calling it a scale? I have a bass for dummies book and has a list of scales that go through all the notes...

    Sorry if this is a dumb question. =/

  • simple and great video a lot of help:)

  • @bolloxinator

    lol, it's YouTube, what do we expect? & people forget that's what the bass sounds like naked without it being all dolled up with effects or ANY editing, which is what we're used to hearing on recordings. They need to get over it.

  • @Kaustu6h wow.. just wow
