@ROCKSTARCRANE You know that the stuff Bunny talks about ... Is taught for more than 600 years. With that knowledge you can play/understand music far more complex and rich than a meaningless groove the bass player play over and over while all others musician solo. Your comment just show how many bass player are ignorant or don,t give a shit about actual knowledge to be a better musician not just a better bass player.

Bunny please work on your audio capture and/or reduce the amount of compression of your video! I have a Carvin Bunny Brunel BB75 bass and they sound SO MUCH BETTER than the sound this video delivers! They have some of the clearest sound of any bass I have ever heard! You may be giving us a free theory video, but it isn't doing anything for marketing that amazing Carvin bass guitar. Oh the humanity!

[gabrielkaspar]

You can`t bring great grooves to life unless you know about music theory,it you only open your eyes to new perspectives,new possibillities and new ideas to explore,the bass player is he one who MUST know at least how to build the chord of any song`s harmony,and then go on from that point

[ROCKSTARCRANE]

What the hell is the point of all this? Where is the FUCKING GROOVE???? Dammit people....Jaco must be turning over in his grave for all the misinterpretation that started with his brilliance. All this theory shit doesn't mean ANYTHING if it doesn't GROOVE!!!

[mikeyab88]

All of these arguments are stupid. Theory can only make you a better musician. Period. Not knowing theory and being able to play doesn't make you a badass, it kind of makes you an ignorant musician. That's like a writer not understanding sentence structure.

I play by watch, listen & learn - no sheet musik. Only one of my daughters at 5 years of age could do sheet musik ie. 1st. musik lesson: watch, listen, learn & play. 2nd lesson: understood sheet musik and played. 3rd lesson: writing and playing her own compositions. She is the gifted one in this family. However, I am persistent to learn from examples such as these. Why? I HAVE TO! & I am grateful that Bunny teaches for free. Thank you Bunny! :)

@clewi1091

Your both right. The fact is that all he is going is going through the various modes to match the chord which are all derived from the major scale. BUT, to be honest with you the greatest bass player I know cant tell what note he is playing, let alone what key he's in or scae he is playing. Some people just have a gift.

[clewi1091]

yeah. ive played from sheet music before but it was written in the number system. thats the only thing i can read somewhat.

[BrainScar300]

that's defiantly a good thing to have a trained ear like that but just doing everything by ear can really put you in bad spot when your playing with a group that has sheet music in front of them. you gotta play the part on the page or your gonna piss off a lot of the other musicians especially the drummer and rhythm section

[clewi1091]

i can walk the bass but i learned either by hearing it played or playing what i thought sounded right for the song.
