Please give tabs

That is great work. Thanks a billion. I love the change and will use it. Keep it going.

I bought a bass guitar a few months ago and am just learning. What is this song or technique called? I have been looking for this for months. This is why I bought a bass guitar and I want to learn this. Someone please help!!! thanks

You sir, are AWESOME. Thanks, this brought alot of inspiration

Good stuff…I usually tap the outline of the chords during those 3-piece blues jams, but chords sound just as nice

thank you

i’m lovin the technique man, those trots sound like they’re in almost perfect time. whether or not it’s simple, good stuff man

could you please include tabs?

nice lesson!

This is physically impossible!!!

cheers dude this should be fun for me to play around with

@pudsy440 : May you can write down the tabs 

alright thanks =]

Yeah sure … I would practice it on you acoustic if you want, it might not sound quite as *full*, but practice is practice … good luck! Hope you get your bass fixed soon.

i have been playing for about 2 and a half years now my eletic bass recently went out on my now am stuck with my ovation accoustic extended neck bass would you recomend doing these on it? or should i wait till i get my eletric fixed?

great man, glad to help! yeah, ya just got to keep picking it up and playing it.

I’ve been teaching myself to play bass for the last year or so. Felt like a hit a road block… started watching a lot of your vids and I can already see/feel/hear a difference in my playing. So from one Canadian to another — thanks, Pudsy!

wow 1:44 and 2:01 are mind-blowing awesome…

wooaaaa slowww down

Tabs?

take a looooooooooooooooong time warming up thourghly.

pretty usefull men. thank you.

are you by any chance related to les claypool?

Aww, I thought he’d be doing it Lemmy style.

nice video man, very helpful

Nice lesson, but the root note is not necessarily the lowest note of the a chord!

I don’t know, I have a 62 and mine has the 4 string mutes his doesn’t have the holes.

His also seems to have an oversized control plate, and his knobs don’t seem to have the off white indicator line on them, nor do the fret markers appear to be clay, which is what lead me to assume a later make.
My guess was 66+ with replaced controls.
I can’t see to well though, so who knows.
Lol, it’s fun trying to guess though.
I wish he’d answer back and say.
Pick guard is w/o question 100% authentic.

Based on the controls and the fretboard it would be ’62 – ’64, possibly even ’65 at the very latest. It is a gorgeous jazz bass.

Nice.

Beautiful Fender Jazz Bass, it looks absolutely stunning.

Based on what I’m seeing it also appears to be an original 60′s J Bass my guess based on some slight details would be maybe a 1966 to 1968 I may be slightly off but does it matter?
Nope.
Fact is that it’s a gorgeous instrument, your video is very helpful and it’s appreciated.
I’d love to see some more pics of this bass.

Ps: it’s VERY hard to hear you on the video, perhaps a chorded microphone stationed slightly closer to you

I just got my channel up and running with some nice camera stuff and my new bass. I can give you all the help you need by message until I understand what exactly I should record and show you
Be glad to help a fellow bass player learn the basics. You’ll soon be playing like Victor Wooten in no time!!

actually, this is actual problem
my friend gave me bass, so i cant sctudy whit it=)

That was good learning but next time can u slow down I am not that good of listner and I am a lefty.

I cant hear your voice, if you could speak louder please, im sorry to bother but English isnt my native lenguage and I cant understand with a low voice : /

I’m a piano lady, but you’re still welcome. Each one helps another.

Actually I think you may have helped me out the most. It now makes sense. Thanks a lot piano man.

Chords are formed within the scales. Three note chords are called triads. To form the triads and other chords, you follow patterns. The major triad is the root, the third and the fifth of the major scale. In C, it would be C-E-G. In Ab, it would be Ab -C-Eb. Check out Wikipedia, or just google “chords” to learn more about the theory of forming chords. Hopes this helps.

How do chords work exactly? Like any 2 or 3 notes within a scales? Or is there specifics all the time? Like a simple idea of exactly how chords work? Thanks. Great video by the way!

thank you very helpful

Thank you….Thank you…Thank you A very helpful video for me. Thanks for posting.

But then, how to play chords on someone else’s bass??

Just kiddin:) Enjoyed your post! THX!

great video! thanks!

You made this so simple, it is really a lot clearer now. Great job.

You just helped me tremendously.  After seeing your video, the book I have on arpeggios and chords makes more sense. “Seeing” is such a great teaching method.

I wanna thank you for your video, I could learn a little more and is gonna be very helpful to me, thanks again !!!

Sehr hilfreich, danke!

Jep, ist natürlich nur ein Major Intervall mit Oktave oben drauf….
Aber so im Prizip ja als “E-Dur” zu gebrauchen
Danke für die Kekse!

Hi Mathias,
tolles Video für Chord-Einsteiger. Möchte aber kurz was anmerken: Der E-Major-Chord, den du bei 3:10 zeigst, ist ja eigentlich gar keiner, da die Quinte fehlt. und du nur Grundton und Terz spielst. Aber weißt du vermutlich selber. Wollte es nur kurz gesagt haben.

Weiter so und Grüße,
Dani
