I Believe by Jonathan Nelson: Bass Tutorial

Likely a must know song in the bass community. Definitely a fun song to play with a lot of space to have fun. This song is in C I give both the numbers and letters in the video so I will not post them here. Enjoy.

Hi. Thanks for posting this. I'm having difficulties following your fingering specifically when you go to the medley. If 1 is C which C are you starting on in the medley? You are are saying 1 twice.

[@soulmca]

Adalbert thank you for your support. I believe you are referencing the introduction line. Please not that medley line I showed you does not have to be played by the bass. I was adding it. So the first 1 or C I talked about is the hit the entire band is doing. There are actually 4 of those single note hits on the 1 or the C. In between those hits the keyboards are playing a melody line 1-2-3-3-2-2-1.
So when I was saying 1 twice I was referring to the band hit 1 followed immediately by the melody line 1-2-3-3-2-2-1.
When you put that together you get
HIT:1
Line: 1-2-3-3-2-2-1
Now you see why I say 1 twice.

@@soulmca yes thank you

[@soulmca]

@@ingrahamab Excellent

[@jamesrousey]

I new at this but is this C or Cshrp mj. Looks like you're starting on 4th fret.

[@soulmca]

C maj. I play a detuned bass which means my C is not in the same place as yours if you are in standard tuning.

[@israelerock]

Nice one lovely,
Please can you write out the sofas of the music out

Hello Israel unfortunately I do not know solefege.

Love this... do a cover for Ron Kenoly "Ancients of days"

[@soulmca]

I try not to do covers because of copyright issues. I am going to test the waters soon and see if UA-cam is still penalizing me for such.
