#bass #basschords #basslesson #tutorial
After years of playing as a hobby i was blessed and formed a band 3 months ago, i have decided i have to step it up and finally dig into theory, i will start here, from the bottom of my heart thank you teacher!!
You're so very welcome. Thank you for watching.
God Bless everyone, I'm praying for you! Jesus loves you! He is with you! ❤
me too, been playing guitar and bass for abt two years now for fun and now i am trying to start a band and will be doing as much research as i possibly can
Dude! Now I am not afraid of chords. On a side note, you have such a soothing Morgan Freeman kind of voice.
Agreed!
Dude is smooth as can be!
AM FROM JAMAICA 🇯🇲. I DOWNLOADED THE CHORD SHAPES PDF AND THEN WATCHED YOUR VIDEO TO GET THE UNDERSTANDING OF THE CHORD CONSTRUCTION MORE CLEAR AND PRECISE. MAD RESPACT BIG MAN🎉🎉
One of the best lessons on bass guitar I've ever watched in my 30 years of playing. BRAVO!!!
Rich you are not only a great player and teacher, you are an angel
Awww...that's very sweet of you. Thanks so much. 😊
Thank you, Mr. Brown. I totally suck but because of you I’m actually beginning to sound like a bass player but don’t get me wrong. I still totally suck at it but I’m not gonna give up. I’ll never be Stanley Clarke.
So timely. The best lesson on chords I’ve ever seen. Thank you!
Oh wow! Thank you so much, Rodney. That means a lot.
Wow, thanks for this video Rich. I have played bass for decades and am not good at all, but this gives me something else to look at. LOL. I will dust off the bass and try this tonight.
You are a great teacher. I'm so glad I found you. I am looking forward to supporting you so that the whole world can benefit from your gift of teaching.
Thank you so much, Justin. That means a lot to me, brother. All the best.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge, your videos are an absolute treasure trove. You are really good at explaining and making things easy by breaking them down.
Awesome lesson Rich. Three shapes to give all of those delicious chords. Thank you, peace and love.
Wow!!! You really outdid yourself with this lesson, sir!!! Thank you!!
Incredible! So wise but also the way you explain everything just makes sense
This is so helpful. Really appreciate the straight forward presentation.
Thank you! I'll be able to figure out how to play along with others on my own.
As practical as beautifully delivered. Thank you for gearing this toward the exact level that you have. I'm picking up bass after some other instruments (including guitar), which means I arrive with tons of baggage and assumptions. Your channel sets me right every time. Thank you SO MUCH!!
Great presentation Rich, as always.
This is fantastic. I really appreciate how you explained this. Well put together, and your overall demeanor is quite pleasant. Great video, sir!
Thanks Rich , love your lessons. Very bass life changing.
Thanks, for sharing your knowledge
Sempre ottime lezioni, complimenti.Mi piacerebbe un video che spiega come fare a estrapolare una linea di basso da una canzone.Thanks
Grazie mille per le belle parole Cercherò di pubblicare presto ulteriori informazioni sulla creazione di linee di basso. Restate sintonizzati e grazie per la visione!
Straightforward. Thanks!
thanks Rich! ✌🧡
first inversions are my fav.. root on top!
Mine too! The sound of the 3rd on the bottom is 💵!
Love your teaching approach, giving me time to ‘get it’,,,,
Awesome lesson! I got something to work on.Thank you. The intro music is nice too, trying to learn it by ear. 🙏🏾
Awesome exercise. Chords and modes at the same time!
Thank You for Taking the time to make these Educational Videos, So Grateful...🙏
It's my pleasure, Samuel. Thank you so much for watching!
Super Informative and clear explanation!
Thank you so much. The explanation was kind, so it was easy to understand. I think you’re the best bass teacher. Good lesson 👍👍
You’re such a blessing and a Great Teacher. I’m so grateful for you and happy to subscribe.
Thank you so much, Tony. What a wonderful compliment. That means a lot. 🙏🏾❤️
Wow! I've been playing for years. Have a pretty good grasp of the scales, but never learned chords! Your lesson was so clear! I used to play these muddy 1-3-5 triads. Thanks!
Great video, straight forward and easy to understand 👍
Love it Mr Brown
Hey Rich, I just subscribed. I have watched several bass players but I really connect with your style of teaching. I've played guitar for over 25 years and have played around with bass here and there and have always paid more attention to the bass in songs! I know your channel is going to help me play like a bass player and not play bass like it's a guitar! Please keep it up and thank you!
reading my mind!!!! thank you thank you!
Thank you Mr Brown! 😎👍💯
Love your channel!
Man ! Back at work ! I’m glad I see your bass on this video 👌🏻
Thanks so much, my brother. And thanks for doing such an amazing job of holding everything together for the last month. It's not the same without you.
We enjoyed the lesson thank you🙏
Killer intro theme bass and melody! I can listen to it all day and cannot get enough! Beautifuly done!
Thanks so much.
Been waiting for this👍🏿
I'm happy I could ablige. Thanks for watching, Errol.
Merry Christmas and a happy healthy New Year Rich to you and your family!!!!
Thanks!
Hi, Rich. Thanks for providing these bass lessons online. I would really love for you to teach some techniques and tricks for getting more comfortable doing improvisation.

What a tremendous lesson! You are among the best bass evangelists and teachers. Thank you
Bass evangelist!? Hmmm...🤔I like it! Thank you!
i just got a leak. Jeez? this is so cool. thank you so much sir
Great, detailed, and informative as always. Bass chords make the lowend sound so atmospheric and grand. Cheers
I totally agree! Thank you for watching.
@@richbrownbass Absolutely. Thank you for the content!
Very good and useful lesson sir,,,,,,😊
I play guitar but I’m ready to try bass guitar 🎸
Happy New Year ! I look forward to more awesome videos from you in 2024!
Happy new year! Thank you so much!
Thanks Mr Brown
My pleasure, Aaron. Thank you for watching.
The tenth (vs the third) was something taught to me when I was younger, but never well explained (tho it was obiously muddy). Learning felt a chore UNTIL I realized how much better it sounded at the 10th!!!
You have a fantastic voice
Haha. Thank you very much. 😊
Thanks
Wow! Thank you so very much, Dan. Your generosity is greatly appreciated!
@@richbrownbass Thanks Rich, keep up the good work! Looking forward to seeing more videos 😊 Also, the video and sound quality is great and much appreciated!
Brilliant! Could you break down if the root lives on the second string and how to construct shapes from there?
Triads; you wouldn't put 3rd up the octave.
You could also play R - 5 - 7.
@@TheHouseJROD Thanks! But what about dropping the 5th and alternating between major and minor chords like he did on the E string? I'd like to see that on at A string if possible.
I suppose we can invert the chord somewhere.
I think the chords from the A string actually sound great when played in their closed voicings. Playing a Cmaj7 chord as CEB on the A, D, and G strings works for me. It's the E and A strings that tend to sound muddled when played together.
@@richbrownbass Thank you for that information! You're a great teacher.
Would you be so kind as to break your videos into chapters?
Good content bro.
Always glad to see your friendly Face in my Abos
Feels good to be back. Thank you for watching!
i am just starting out, it made no sense to me haha. but i really want to be able to groove to some music. any videos you reccomend me to watch
How do you use the chords
It sank in shiiittt
Thanks!
Thank you so much. Your generosity means a lot.
Thanks!
Thank you! I appreciate your generosity.
