And it's a jazz guitar. Why does it matter?

[Hoopskidoodle]

Nothing makes an old dude look cooler than a jazz box hanging off his shoulders... except, perhaps, and inappropriately young woman.

@DonConstantinos Use your first, second and fourth finger, not your third

[donsolo00]

@jallis12 on a theoretical level, the bass and guitar are the same instrument separated by only an octave, like a bari and alto sax. Obviously, the approaches in practice are much different. But yes, some guitar lessons are great for learning bass.

[jallis12]

these guitar lessons are awesome for bass

[DonConstantinos]

so when i have to press three frets(f,g,a on the 6th string) in a row with a distance of 5 frets i use 1st 3rd and 4rth finger?

[icarcass]

What about both hanging off his shoulders?

[HxCDOOM]

Memorizing where the notes are helps a lot as well.

[panamanian911]

if he says "from the first note of a major scale, move up a diatonic step" it means move from C to D..

if he says a chromatic step, it'd be from C to C#

[kmanj3]

actually, if you changed it to play abcdefg it would be A minor.

[redslownight]

Even if you moved a major scale anywhere and still played the notes abcdefg, it would still be in the key of C. If it was in the key of G, you would move every F to a F#. ( or up a fret ).

[rawdealdog]

and if you learn the notes you are playing - say the notes - you can orientate yourself around the fret board.
