  • That's awesome. Could you improve this kind of stuff as quickly in any key? Or are there keys you are more comfortable playing in?

  • For the most part, I'm as comfortable in one key as another. I've noticed Gb can trip me up if I'm trying to utilize concepts that I'm still working on, but only if I'm having an off night. Keys don't tend to trip me up, tho..

    Thanks for the kind words!

  • Jaco touches on this on his Modern Electric Bass DVD but you went farther into it,thanks. I have this strange urge to cut off that thing hanging from your beard :-).

  • you wouldn't be the first! ;)

  • Fantastic video. When I'm practicing scales, arpeggio's etc, I always try to incorporate them into my everyday playing so that I'll remember them, BUT I'm having a hard time making "music" out of them.

    Any tips on breaking from the usual scale-ish sounds?

  • Very helpful!

  • Wait for it...Hahahahahaha! Sure, HammondB200,... Whatever you say. For me, this is incredible to view but is not as instructional as your video on '5ths.' "Thanks, Damian!"

  • man i cant wait to play like you but i guess when i get to ur kind of playing id still be wanting to learn more n more new stuff hahaha the beauty of music

  • Very nice playing my friend

  • U shouldn't be playing those scales in aware. Scales only upgrade your vocabulary. The notes come from within. Practicing scales improves your hearing: "Which notes will sound good on a certain moment or in in a key, a chord, or a transition between chords". Hope I was clear, English isn't my motherlanguage

  • Wow, amazing. So clean, sounds like a classical instrument.

  • 6ths and 3rds are the two most important intervals! thanks for the vid man that was very helpful

  • i like your tone kinda sounds like a frettless.
