Thanks

been playing bass for a while, but i've been stuck in a rut for making new songs.. so i was looking for some inspiration- but i found this instead. nice work!

one thing.. a lot of people use tabs and because of that they might not understand what you're trying to explain. maybe put the camera a bit closer to the neck so they can see better?

barley a problem tho. i added some of your vids to my favorites, i'll be sure to let anyone interested in learning the bass see these videos!

cheers!

Instead of the "look" method, I use the "listen and look" method. For example, I say "D with the first finger on the 12th fret of the D string".

Thanks for your kind comments and "word-of-mouth" offer.
