  • do you use flat wounds?

  • @funkmetwice No

  • what key is this played in?

  • @funkmetwice Its in A Major

  • @bassplayalong

    It's funny that it's A major but right before the chorus the bass goes A, A, G, A, A, A, G, A... while the A major scale has G sharp as its 7th tone and not 'just' G.

  • @grisznik Ok, you have a point, its in the mode of A Mixolydian which is a mode of D Major

  • Lol watchin & listenin to Marlowe is so great. At 1:21 he gives tht "Yeah, I played that lick whatchu gonna do about it!!! face

  • Your are one hell of a bass player. I stopped playing 30 years ago, and have picked it up again, due in part to you and other youtubers. Your September and Do I do covers are some of my favorites. Guys like you are really helping to teach an old dog some new tricks. Thanks again

see all
