You suck as a human. So, this video was over your head or something, or do you just like making fun of teachers instructing beginers?
– Hey. I just saw Stu Hamm has basic bass instructions on You Tube talking about the parts of the bass and such. Maybe you can go on his vids and make fun of him. But, you wouldn’t know who Stu Hamm is.

The bass player and the drummer set the beat. Many bass players play according to the drummer’s beat of the bass drum.
