    The bass solo at the start of this lesson is gold dust. It has everything for a beginner. Phrasing, timing, movement across and along the neck, articulations, pentatonics, blues scale, dynamics. Thanks a million!!

    Hi Dan, I came across your channel and like what you are putting out. I play guitar for over thirty years, have ventured into bass a bit and want to learn more about the technique and roll of this beautiful instrument. Have you done any videos that cater for guitarists-turned-bass players? Anyway, thanks for your lessons and keep going bro, great stuff!

    • @OnlineBassCourses
      @OnlineBassCourses  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks very much and welcome to the bass community! I haven't done that video, no but there are obviously differences. A lot will help you though, especially the notes. Fingerstyle technique is something to get down but you can play with a plectrum too. I have lots of lessons that will help you. Maybe check out my Technique playlist.

      Thanks! I'm about to update my lighting and camera because they're old and not great. The cameras are Canon 600d. Lighting is cheap Amazon. Mic is currently a Neumann km184. Should change in the next few weeks. I'll probably do a video on the studio at some point.

    Dan, a huge issue for apprentice bassists is how to construct phrases. Please make a video specifically about note sequences that turn into great phrases.You play something really cool then say I wasn't thinking, I was just playing. Well, we wanna know what you were playing and how to do it!

    • @OnlineBassCourses

    There's a particular rhythm I can't seem to grasp. The mid to early 60s of McCartney and beach boys ( think Sgt peppers and pet sounds). Its off but on? I want to say staccato, but idk, really, what that is. Definitely not sustain oriented. I called it bouncy, no one else seems know what I mean. (Btw, I've gotten a lot from ur videos). Thanks!

    • @OnlineBassCourses
