    JUST IN CASE IT CAN HELP SOMEONE:
    From each of the notes within any major scale there is a chord built from it.
    An arpeggio is just a chord played one note at a time.
    4:28 C major arpeggio
    4:37 D minor arpeggio
    4:41 E minor arpeggio
    4:46 F major arpeggio
    4:50 G dominant 7 arpeggio
    4:54 A minor arpeggio
    4:58 B minor 7 b5 arpeggio
    7:49 ascending arpeggios
    8:05 descending arpeggios
    Say the arpeggios as you play them:
    C major, D minor, E minor, F major, G dominant 7, A minor, B minor 7 b5.
    13:07 Then say the notes with them:
    C, E, G, B
    D, F, A C
    E, G, B, D
    F, A, C, E
    G, B, D, F
    A, B, E, G
    B, D, F, A
    All of these arpeggios work on the C major chord/tonality.

    C major scale:
    1. C major - Ionian mode
    2. D minor -Dorian mode
    3. E minor - Phrygian mode
    4. F major - Lydian mode
    5. G dominant - Mixolydian mode
    6. A minor - Aeolian mode
    7 B minor - Locrian mode
    Just start on the next note, and then the next one, and so on... and go trough all the notes of the arpegio, it will show you the light.

I love how you keep coming back to the Cmaj scale -- and all its modes, chords, and arpeggios -- as a point of focus for learning the entire fretboard, and for grasping the main tenets of music theory. Your generosity and brilliance as a player and teacher are unmatched anywhere online. Thank you.

    This is a great teacher if you are having some class from a teacher parallely. I'm learning about the 7 modes of a scale, and knowing how they work make sense and find it much easier what Scott is teaching here. Brilliant class, but I recommend to first know a little about those modes to really get that juice out if this excercise

  • @knucklevision
    @knucklevision Рік тому +4

    One helpful visualization tool is the piano keyboard, where the modes related to the C major scale means you play only the white keys.
    If you play a C major scale, you start at C and play all of the white keys- that sequence of intervals, separated by the black keys is: (C) D (E) F (G) A (B) and called the "Ionian mode". The 1-3-5 triad and 1-3-5-7 Cmajor/Cmajor7 chord tones are in brackets...
    If we stay in the key of C major/ (all white keys), but we play a scale starting on the note of D, we will create a scale of (D) E (F) G (A) B (C) called "Dorian mode", and the 1-3-5 triad and 1-3-5-7 chord tones are a D minor/Dmin7. ...
    If we stay in the key of C major/ (all white keys), but we play a scale starting on the note of E, we will create a scale of (E) F (G) A (B) C (D) called "Phrygian mode", and the 1-3-5 triad and 1-3-5-7 chord tones are an E minor/Emin7.....
    If we stay in the key of C major/(white keys), but we play a scale starting on the note of F, we will create a scale of (F) G (A) B (C) D (E) called "Lydian mode", and the 1-3-5 triad and 1-3-5-7 chord tones are an F major/Fmaj7.
    If we stay in the key of C major/(white keys), but we play a scale starting on the note of G we will create a scale of (G) A (B) C (D) E (F) called "Mixolydian mode", and the 1-3-5 triad and 1-3-5-7 chord tones are an Gmaj/G(dom)7.
    If we stay in the key of C major/(white keys), but we play a scale starting on the note of A, we will create a scale of (A) B (C) D (E) F (G) called "Aeolian mode", and the 1-3-5 triad and 1-3-5-7 chord tones are an A minor/Amin7 (*This scale/mode starting on the sixth note of a major scale is called the relative minor*)
    If we stay in the key of C major/(white keys), but we play a scale starting on the note of B, we will create a scale of (B) C (D) E (F) G (A) called "Locrian mode", and the 1-3-5 triad and 1-3-5-7 chord tones are a B(minor) diminished/Bmin7b5.
    This is one of the few parts of music theory I have studied and grasped, and it is a huge help when the light goes off. I hope this description might help?
    I will edit if anyone points out errors/corrections, thanks!

    I'm a seasoned rock / blues and country bass player and I'm strong enough to record with people on a professional level along with having the opportunity of working with signed bands and being signed on past projects myself. I never learned to read but I definitely understood how important it is even knowing just your basic scales. I've done pretty good through the years and have been fortunate enough to work with great players where I have picked up a lot of it by ear but I still consider myself a student who's learning and I continue pushing myself to try to be better even at my age. I wonder if you know just how much your videos help people like me to improve our chops? Almost forgot. Learning basic shapes was the ticket for me when I first started.

    Scott from this lesson I just came up with an ascending and descending arpeggiated take of these chords or a slight modification of some notes and it comes out sounding very classical and its quite astounding considering Im not a bass player but from this one lesson It just opened my head right up and seeing the chord shapes white gloves on dark fingerboard is helpful for me to see exactly what is then just burn it into memory..
    Harmonizing the major scale and arpeggiating all the way up and down is what im doing
    I had to slow the speed down to see how your doing it all in one position MOST AWESOME LESSON Completely opens my head to thinking like a bassists vs a guitarist playing bass..
    I also take what you just showed me back to guitar hope you dont mind me running with that..

Just a tip though, try pressing as gently as you can with your fretting hand, I learnt mostly playing in punk / metal/ alt rock type bands where the point was playing as hard and fast as you could 24 /7. now I'm stuck in that hard squeeze habit and it does make fast fingering, chordy songs, etc far more tiring and difficult, and now as I progress up in skill level and am starting to get in to "shred" territory, I'm having to focus on unlearning that in order to get a lot of the really fret hand fast moves (plucking hand fast is fine.

    Scott - Excellent lesson as always. The part that peaked my interest the most was when you began to implement chromatic notes into your playing. I would love to see a lesson that dives deeper into that with regard to constructing bass lines over traditional jazz progressions.

    This is sooooo useful. If you can map one whole major scale across the neck ... this exercise(s) gives you total control of the neck no matter how fast the changes. Thank you scott. I am a member.

    It's all the white notes... lolz... but really love the stuff about joining it all up with chromatic passing notes... this is a great way to get the important info into a young jazzer's head... Great stuff - Thankyou, sir!

    Scott, you've got some brilliant excercises. Though I think it would really be helpful if you include a POV angle of sorts, or maybe a neck-positioned goPro camera? It is very convenient for the observer to be able to replicate what they see on their screen.

    9:30 mark, about doing exactly the same with the fingering, i realised that's what i'm doing wrong. I always trip up doing really fast technical stuff, sometimes nail it, sometimes i don't. I think this will help out a lot. Great stuff
