    Part 1/2 Bass lesson for Something About You by Level 42. In my opinion one of their finest songs. This is one of Mark King's 'easier to play' bass lines. Check out part 2 for the verse.

    Davey I got Rotosound steels 40 thru 100 and they sound great.
    First time for me to use stainless steel strings and wow they sing.

    why is it 'buzzing' so much... are you ok with that ? is it normal for the action to be so low on a base... reason I ask, is I just bought a squire jazz fender base... having played electric 6 string... i'm just so surprised at how 'buzzy' it all is.

      +DOVE RIVER MEDIA You're mostly hearing buzzing because the camera is so close to the bass and the bass isn't turned up very load. It sounds to me like your action is too low. Do you still get fret buzz when you play the note lightly? I have a problem with fret buzz around the 15th fret and need to get an expert to fix it. I don't dare adjust the trust rod myself. The last guy who looked at my bass made it worse so you need to find someone who really knows what they're doing.

    A major doesn't have a C natural. You're right about Mixolydian, though. Just call it Mixo Flat 6.
