This guy is a Legend. No gimmicks, no fancy Dan nonsense, no sales pitch for the 'ultimate bass course' - just good, solid practical wisdom from the trenches.
I can't stress how much I am grateful for MusicCollegeTV for creating this clean, informative, and organized tutorial videos! More power and you deserve more views! Thank you, again!
Brilliant! I was tempted to just pass over this one, but thought, "why not? I'm here to learn." I'm glad I did. I think the thing that made the most sense to me was that how I was holding the bass sitting was different than standing and that particular point this guy makes about them being the same regardless was just too useful. Definitely going to keep going with this fella.
I finally got my bass this morning (after many years of trying to convince my parents) and I'm more in love with the instrument itself than I am with playing- that's saying a lot for me😂- I'd just like to say thank you!
I've been playing bass for about two years now, and these amazing tutorials are just phenomenal! They're extremely helpful. From only this video, I saw how dumb I was holding my bass and how easier it was to balance everything out! Thanks MusicCollegeTV!!
The BEST youtube bass tutorials Ive found on youtube! Thanks! :D
Your delivery of the beginner information is perfectly paced. Thanks very much.
I've been playing 22 yrs and self tought there are thousands of videos on UA-cam, his are b far the best. Leeos like he hasn't made vidoes in a while. I wish he had new videos coming out all the time.hes a super teacher!!! Reccomend his for learning everything about the bass he describes everything perfectly
I am a beginner bass player, and from tutors to online courses and even paid courses, I find this guy legendary!! no none-sense, no waste of time and above all he also plays too damn well.. I AM A FAN!!
Thank You for the very useful explaination! Most people think that BASIC details are obvious, but I do believe they aren't. Appreciated your humble way and your essential words. Subscribed!
I don't have a bass but I'm using my acoustic guitar to practice until I buy my first bass guitar this week! I haven't got the instrument yet, but I've already fallen in love with it!
Muse vocalist teaches bass yay
musetrigger?
He looks more like the drummer tbh
i saw him more like a thom yorke tom delonge
There's just one more thing that has to interact with your bass, which you left out. Your heart.
that's deep, man.
Same with any instrument really isn't it?
...lmfao.
Don't forget your soul too.
Does it have to be my heart? I have my grandmas that I dug up like 2 years ago, would that work?
* sees him with short strap *
* shortens strap for about 10 minutes *
"make your strap longer"
Damn it.

I did the opposite, was learning without a strap sat down for weeks...finally got a strap to play standing up, and it felt like i had gone back to lesson one.
3:52 jeez I'm glad UA-cam's music lesson styles have changed.
Hey I love your teaching system and style on here! It is so clear and made so simple to understand and easy to follow! Thank you all so very much, I would also ask what kinda 5 string bass guitar is that and what kinda strap is that also? Thanks again for all you all do!.
Hi Scotty - The 5 String is another creation by Jon Shuker - Here's a link to a short vid about the Jazz Bass I use for the majority of these sessions. ua-cam.com/video/qQxOPJEId4A/v-deo.html
The Strap is an old Levy's strap. Bought 2 of them about 15years ago and they're still going strong!

Thanks Richie Blake, I will check it out when I can, and man I love your videos lessons thank God I found your you tube channel, dude my work makes us work all the time and it really gets in the way of everything I have to do with my family time, house work, and choirs to do, I do have time a little bit but I have to use it wisely, I have only been learning the bass guitar for about 11months now, but I am trying to find a good solid practice routine I would love to get in the blues and jazz very fluently! I have been playing the bass guitar for our church Praise and worship team and our choir, but I have to play by chord sheets music, I can play just a little bit I mean very little by ear, so I just need something solid to practice on regularly to make a more solid groovin player, and open up the whole bass guitar to me with a deep understanding of it, your videos lessons are a true blessing Richie Blake! Thanks for getting back with me, have a good day.
How do I get access to the rest of videos please? I've been on the website to purchase but I could find only pdf. Thanks
Ok .. good points there …. Now .. Can I have your bass ? :P
If I'm a guitarist that ever needs to play bass, I can just follow the chord progression and play the bass notes, right? Just as a bare minimum?
+Charx Sure
I would like to start playing standing up, but my bass is so freakin heavy I can’t take it for more than 5 minutes 😂
Question: I have a 6th string bass so it is VERY top heavy. When I have the strap low it is fine but I want to have it high when is sit down. It dives so low there's no way I can just let it be where it wants to be, but I found that resting my plucking arm on the body of the bass keeps keeps the head it. Is this ok? Or will this develope bad technique? If this is not ok what should I do? Thanks.
make the strap take the blunt of the weight. you don't want to be holding the bass with your arms or hands. wider strap will probably hold still on your shoulders easier especially if leather.
I luv u
Chama !
Why am I watching this? I don’t even own a bass lmfao
I mean if you do a lot of downpicking having the bass lower is certainly beneficial.
Smacking his lips every time he starts a new sentence has me laughing so hard
For me it feels natural to rest my plucking forearm on the back of the bass which counteracts the head dropping. So i guess i can keep my strap short
Why you swicth from five strings?
Hi Professor,
Love your classes. Unfortunately as far as my Gibson SG and I are concerned, increasing the strap length doesn't work. The Bass head "nosedives" in any position. I'm thinking a better quality strap is in order. (Different material, different width) It's either that or change the bass itself.
Again, thank you for the classes. :)
I solved the problem with a wide and grippy guitar strap.
anyone can tell me the recommended height of the strings from the fingerboard?
+Ulises Gongora Go on youtube and search ''How to adjust action on bass guitar'' or just ''How to setup a bass guitar.'' There is tons of videos.
+Sergej Krynycký Thanks m8
I just got my guitar
This would convince my parents to buy me a bass

Thank you!

Dude , what’s up with those baby fingers 😂
It's often difficult for girl bassists' that's for sure! I am comfortable playing high but it sure isn't comfortable for "the girls"!
Hi Carwen, Thanks for your comment... My advice is to start slow and build gradually with any new technique. Have patients and overtime with practice things will get easier I'm sure!
Man I own like three guitars why the fuck am I here
