- Hey there, friends & neighbours! I'm excited about this one. This might be the best way to learn the modes for 6-string bass. This method is different from anything you've seen before, and it's sure to help you get these modes under your fingers with a bit of work.
LET'S TAKE IT TO THE BASS!

The Best Way to Learn The Modes for 6-String Bass
#modes #6stringbass #basslessons #basslesson
Thanks! I just bought a 6 string bass. This is a big help.
This is the best method for visualizing the modes of the six string that I've seen, inspired genius!
Thanks for your lessons ❤️❤️
Two words Rich, "En Fuego"🔥 You've done it again my man, what a great lesson. BTW I've been teaching a friend of mine to play bass and you're making me look brilliant.
Always appreciate having something 6 string bass related to open up the neck. I bought my 6 string to learn how to use some of the upper register to noodle and explore melody. I find i play a lot of my old 4 string favourite tunes on the 6 and that has forced an adaptation for my lh/rh technique (mostly effective muting) and i tend to use the low B to fill things out a bit. However I've been a little lost when practicing scales and the like in a way that uses all 6 strings practically.
So this is great!
This is a great exercise.
Thank you for another great lesson and for the advice to take it one mode at a time!
I’m pulling my 6 string out I gotta learn this thanks for this Rich. Incredible
Thanks, Steadman. I hope this info helps you out.
Man I love all of your lessons. I just got a 6 string a few days ago and this is going to help me a bunch. I basically do this with the 4 string, and guitar, but I hadn’t quite connected the dots the way you have. Pretty amazing how a slight difference in thinking about a thing can open some big doors. I love it. Thank you
Between what I've learnt from you and my SBL membership, I've got a lot closer to being the bassist I always wanted to be. But this is going to make a huge difference. Thanks again.
Thank you so much, Will. I'm so glad these videos can help, even in some small way. As always, I appreciate you tuning in.
Great stuff man. Would you consider making a series on playing 6-strings? (and maybe 7-strings)
Thanks so much for this one Rich!!! Watching from South Australia and I think that while this might not be a complete light bulb moment, I'm starting to see that light start to glow a bit. This is wonderful mate and I'm very grateful for you doing these videos, I picked up a six string earlier this year and I'm really enjoying the versatility it allows in terms of playing across the neck. I do find that this opens up my mind to becoming a bot more experimental which is very handy as I play with a guitarist and myself often times, that extra range and sonic exploration zone helps to fatten and fill out our sound.
You absolutely rock my man, keep up the great work.
Never fail to deliver. I appreciate you
That Bass!!!! and the way you play it..... fire man pure fire! Mr. Brown, take care friend. Love the video and the tips and tricks... cheers
YES!!! I love all your videos but this is the kind of lessons I have been waiting for
That’s a fantastic way to think of it. Very cool. Now I just need to get a six.
As I said on your last video, this one, too, is amazingly helpful. I don't play a 6 strong, but I do play a 5, and this works equally well for a 5. You're the best!
Man I love your videos. Any student would be blessed to have you as a teacher.
Oh wow! Thank you so much!
Thanks man. As always, love your style.😎
Just want to let you know that English is not my mother tongue but your explanations are so clear that I've learned more from you instead several phisical teachers in my mother tongue, you were very helpful to fix my timing issues with your rhythmic exercise, thanks a lot and greetings from Italy
Great lesson. Thank you.
I had a six string bass for a while that I didn't connect with (uninspiring tone and narrow string spacing). Thinking of diving back into a six string and your compound mode approach sounds super useful!
Oh my, exactly what I needed. Thanks Rich.
That's what I love to hear. Thanks so much for watching.
I'll probably never get a 6 because I already have more instruments than time but this still gives a different perspective for navigating 4 strings. 👍
Wow..... Crazy stuff Mr. Brown.... Even better when then the scale appeared on the screen..... Hey you done well.... thanks
Thank you, Pierre. I appreciate you tuning in!
How timely! I am just going to go back to playing 6 string
This is gold Rich! I wish I thought about it this way a long time ago. What also helped me alot was thr way Anthony Wellington teaches modes. Seeing one big 7 string pattern. Are you using the fretwrap in this video? If so, is it right on the nut or slightly before or after?
Cheers and keep the great content coming!
At the risk of adding to the hyperbole, This is a great lesson for me to get the modes into my muscle memory, thanks Rich. Is that a new FBass? Sure looks sweet.
Yes! That's the new F Bass. I love it!
I'm so glad this lesson helped. I appreciate you tuning in. All the best!
Good 'hack'. A similar approach, but which doesn't rely on a 'B' string root is the rolling stack of 1--2--4 (each a tone apart) x 3 strings, up a fret (ascending)/down a fret (descending), 1-2--4 (semitone then a tone) x 2 strings & finally 1--3-4 (tone then a semitone) x 2. That rolling pattern can start on any string.
Great lesson! Could you do a lesson about how to get from intermediate bass player (stuck in one place practicing 2 octave scales, arepeggios, warm-up exercises, improvising and playing a bass line created on a fly to a backing track) to the advanced bass player and what to do, what to learn, what to practice, some theory to become advanced, some scale and arpeggio exercises but for the advanced bass player? IT WOULD BE SO COOL! And many people would benefit from this lesson. A genre playing lessons would also be GREAT for example how to play rock on bass, how to play metal on bass, how to play soul on bass, how to play motown on bass, how to play country on bass, how to play fusion (jazz-rock) on bass, how to play funk on bass and of course how to play jazz on bass guitar and how to start easily with walking bass lines and slowly become more fluent in playing walking bass (everything for intermediate/early advanced bass players) ! Could you please do lessons like this? It would be awesome! You are a great teacher and thank you for everything! I hope you will do lessons like these ideas I gave you in this comment. WE WOULD LOVE THAT! Greetings from Poland, Mike :)
So the rule is : the mode/shape 2nd set of strings is a 10th (3rd) higher than the mode on the 1st set of strings. the first example is technically C# locrian on the lower set and E Dorian. The Low c# is in the position but not played :)))
Hey I'm new to your channel, are you related to Rob Brown here on UA-cam? You two kinda sound similar, anybody else see their resemblance...
I'm delaying my entry into 6 string territory, because the one I like has 35" scale... Other basses that have the same spacing (18-19mm) and 34" scale are quite expensive OR have useless B string...
Hey Rich I’m a local builder of bass guitar I like your playing style I was wondering if you would like to try some of my bass guitars and give me some feed back.
All the mods sounds equal.. Difficult to enjoy playing
