Been playing bout 18 yrs and still learning. I enjoy exercises like this and going back to the basics. This is structured and makes sense. Gives a good foundation. Thank you for sharing!
My problem is i can't necessarily hear the modulation of the chord of any given song when im trying to play perhaps ballroom blitz, i can get a good rhythm but the money notes that gives the song it's flair makes it recognizable .help I use open E and 7th fret A string and open D. I think it is in key notes close by but i get stuck there when I know where the other Es As Ds but walking up or down or around is where you know it isn't quite as dramatic. Without tabs, i sometime sound close.but am inconsistent
Right. I see what you’re saying. That’s all about ear training, understand basic diatonic harmony and then practicing moving the roots between different scale degrees. Then do the same thing with arpeggios. After a while, your ear will begin to recognise chord movements better.
Sorry. Tried editing last comment and lost it. Maybe the chord progression for ballroom blitz is what i need? I play open E and D and E 7th fret? Is that in key. I have just chords with most songs like chords and lyrics. 😊
So i do not over do edit...what chord progression could work around these note at the 7th fret where i play it. Easy to bounce from open E and 7th fret A, another E and pluck the open D when i think it sounds good. Can you teach rudiments like with drumming. LRLLR etc to make it sound better?
Not sure what you mean , but dan has so many great warms from beginner to advanced on this channel along with great theory for pairing. He is an amazing teacher
@@AspiringSpaceWizard all scales relate from low to high high to low and you are right Dan is very good and thanks I'm sorry I'm not very good explaining what I mean my fellow bass player ❤ friend I mean that
Use the pause button, look at the fret markers, remember which fret is which, download the PDF where I give you the exact shape (see my previous reply to you for instructions). I’m not that far away 😂

Great lesson, Dan. I am learning a lot watching your videos. I love the way you teach how to play scales.
#3 bass line I recognise as 'Low Rider' by War - great tune too!
Dan you always have a way of presenting new ideas for learning the fretboard. Thanks for the super lesson.
Thanks, Roger.
As usual, excellent lesson!! Thank you!
nice way to learn scales, thanks
Brilliant excercise Dan , thank you ❤
I always really appreciate your videos. These are so good! Thanks for sharing
I appreciate you watching them. 🙏
Very cool lesson ! 👌 ... Easy, Groooovy, and funny ! 🙏
Great exercise to get the all the fingers moving thank you
Excellent, as usual!
🙏
Hi Dan! Thank you for all this hard work! What setting do you use on your sterling (bass/mid/treble)? I love this sound. THANKS.
This is a pre Ernie Ball 1978 StingRay which explains the tone. There’s no mid EQ. It’s bass up quite a lot, treble down.
@@OnlineBassCourses . Ty Dan!👏👏
Thank you very much.
good lesson Dan !
Hi Dan, I love this video but having difficulty printing the PDF. The format is an issue. Is this literature in any of your books by chance?
No, this stuff is not in any book. I thought it’d be fine to print as it’s a standard PDF size?
@@OnlineBassCoursesthanks Dan, I guess I can always freeze your video and copy the tabs by hand.
Cool lesson!
Nice bro
In most videos, you say download the PDF in the link below but when we check, we don't find it.

I’m going to have to take a closer look at this. I’m not quite sure what you’re after here…
Hay Dan win I'm worming up I take it to 15th fret box, show people how to do that and then go back down ❤

When they say; Who is your teacher buddy?
I’ll say my bass teacher Mr. Hawkins, he is farther away from our location but nevermind…
You are are very far we can't see your left hand and you are not telling us the fret number so it is difficult to follow you!
