    Yo D, the tone on that bass is incredible. If I close my eyes, I could swear you are playing a fretless! Of all the youtube vids I have seen, yours are the most impacting! I'm an OG Bassist from 1968. I put it down in 85 to go into Personal & Tour Management. You are giving me tools to reignite my first love!

    I pick a couple different topics every day to work on. ie.. Timing, Speed, Modes, Scales, Slaping, Double Thumb.... This covers a lot of focus groups in a single week. Should I be focusing on couple topics and sticking with them for a week or is it okay to bounce around like I do?

    Hi Daric
    Eeverything you play is so groovy an fuill of soul.
    Thanks a lot for the sharing of such a talent and great work achievment
    what kind of effect do you use to record, a kind of compressor with chorus ?
    cheers

    • @daricsbasslessons
      @daricsbasslessons  7 років тому +1

      +chromaticbass thanks!!!! My pleasure! I mostly don't use any effects while recording especially during lessons. Just the tone of the bass

    @matthewclark9415 6 років тому +1

    Hey Deric! So I have a question for you. Since the major 3rd of C in the key of C major is E, why is F the major 3rd of D?

    • @imrankirklandel3177
      @imrankirklandel3177 5 років тому +3

      Hey Matt, he's using the major and minor thirds according to the scale degrees. F is the minor third of D. The scale degrees of the major scale are: maj, min, min, maj, maj, min (natural minor), dim. The third degree (note) of the C major scale scale is E, so the minor third would be G. Hope that helps.

    • @thatpaulschofield
      @thatpaulschofield 3 роки тому

      I think Deric meant to say "diatonic thirds" instead of "major thirds." "Diatonic thirds" means playing third intervals staying within the scale.

    I hope I'm not the first to say this bit the 3rd of D is F#, but it seems like you're saying F natural...IJA

    • @EventsKiosk
      @EventsKiosk 2 місяці тому

      In the key of C major, D’s 3rd is F (it’s just a MINOR 3rd). The key of C major doesn’t not contain F#.
