When I first heard the legendary bassist Jaco Pastorius my life was changed forever. Up until that moment the only bass players I'd ever really heard were simply doubling up the guitar line or simply grooving in the background.
I first heard him playing on the tune 'Havana' by Weather report, and still to this day his performance on that recording blows my mind. I strongly urge you check it out after you've watched this lesson.
The thing that made Jaco Pastorius stand out for me was his 16th note style grooves. They were so rhythmically powerful but at the same time had a melodic depth that I hadn't heard any other bassists reach.
In this bass lesson I have constructed a groove that demonstrates exactly how to use these 16th note type grooves and most importantly how you can get them into your own playing vocabulary.

Even without a bass in hand, this was a pleasure to watch.
Hey Pat. My pleasure - it's great to see so many people enjoying and most of all - putting what I'm teaching into practice! have a great day :)
For $25.00 I'm getting the most effective bass lessons ever and tons of them! Thanks Scott!
I've been lurking around your videos for several weeks now. I just wanted to let you know that your lessons have been making a great improvement in my playing. I've been enjoying them thoroughly. Keep up the good work. It's rare to find a person who is both a talented player AND a talented teacher.
Scott, what can I say--you make your lessons look so easy!!! Love your technique and I gain so much insight with each of your lessons.....Thanks a million and keep informing us--loving it!!!!
I'd love to know the reason why 32 people didn't like it! Always seems incredible to me that someone offers something like this free of charge and then people complain or make daft comments! I play guitar but if bass was my main instrument I'd be on these lessons like a rash! Nice one Scott, just focus on the positives.
For the same reason we have vandals and vandalism, haters, rebels, people who like to throw a wrench and cause damage!
esqueça os haters. não vale a pena
Guitar players 🙄
You're a tremendous teacher, Scott. Even watching you play is a pleasure. Besides, the subject matter of Jaco is a pleasure, when someone can convey his technique so well. Thank You.
The best bass teacher on UA-cam hands down. Awsome tone and very easy to follow. Thank you for showing me how great Jaco really was.
Thx for doing it in bites, calling out the notes...and with the subtitles. That helps and confirms what we are learning.
Very nice staccato on your walking bass line Scott. And yes the "ghost notes" embellish the run with their classic funky, percussive groove. Bravo.
Thanks for uploading this lesson Scott. You make it sound so effortless. You make Jaco proud!
One of the best instructional videos from Scott. Thanks!
Thanks for kindness in sharing your knowledge with us Scott!! Another great video!!
Fantastic tutorial. Step-by-step lessons like this are extremely helpful for so many players. Thanks a million Scott!!!
Thx for sharing this with us Scott. This is a great leason, you are a great instructor. Jaco was the best. Man, what can I say except thanks brother. From Ohio, Cheers!! Greg
Scott is one of the best bass teachers/players on UA-cam. You can learn so much from this guy!
you are simply one of the best in all over the world
I AM SO GRATEFUL TO GOD THAT I CAME IN CONTACT WITH YOUR LESSON.THEY ARE REALLY HELPING ME. YOU ARE A VERY GOOD TEACHER. I ENJOY YOUR LESSON EVERY DAY.
Thanks for the video. The explanation/deconstruction of this made perfect sense. spot on.
After 20 years of playing in bands I decided it was time to learn. The academy is perfect. Great thing. Keep up the good work.
You are one of the FINEST teachers out there, man!
This is bloody brilliant!! You are like a bass wizard, with vast of knownledge about the bass and music theory, and this makes your lessons unique. Thank you for this lesson! I am also a great Jaco fan.
Cheers from Norway!
I love the way you put your spirit into the way you play,,,,,, Love you man...... Regards
Thank you Scott.
Was already missing classes.
God bless you.
The following is no cheat it is my desire to articulate my respect for what Scott is doing or trying to do: I am a studied bass player, who took a pretty long break due to work. I recently joined SBL and I have to say that it is superb - go for scott, he really knows what (!) and how (!!) to teach - and I can guarantee you this: This is a rare combo!! If you take his advices seriously, you will become a bass player! I am really thankful for what he does.
Thank you, Scott! This is a real treat for us poor musicians, who can't afford private teachers.
Keep up the great work! :)
It was amazing! You're an excellent teacher! Congratz! I was really inspired to study hard.
been playing this riff constantly for about a week..... Now it is starting to influence my playing style. Thank you so much for the great lessons, you ROCK!!
One of the best teachers online!!! I luv these videos!!! So much "free" info.. ur a saint!!!!
Hey Scott, thanks for the most valuable guidance. Restarting my bass journey after 25y of inactivity is not easy. I have watched some of your lessons during the last weeks and I enjoy them very much. So, I think we will be talking often from now on.
Cheers,
Dimitris

Thanks Scott, your lessons always guarantee some quality practice time, very tasty lick.
Amazing lesson -- I've got it under my fingers now and I've started messing around with the 16th note groove idea over other chords & all over my fretboard.
Thanks, Scott!
Such an excellent teacher.
Me and the guys I started learning music with use to go to local jazz clubs( when they were still around ), and listen to our music teachers jam for hours!! One night we listened to a jazz quartet with a xylophone player instead of guitarist. Bass,drums, keys, and xylophone... too cool for words!! Back in the day when underage kids could get into such places... around 1980!! Keep Bassin Scott... sounds great and brings back great memories!!!!
Heads up! How to get the classic 16th note funk groove into your vocabulary... Enjoy!... ua-cam.com/video/TZBpy_8Xm_E/v-deo.html
