What’s really helpful to remember is the bass operates in 4ths, so each note is a 4th interval away. For instance, starting on the A on the E string, next string 5th fret is a D, then a G and lastly a C on the fifth fret G string. Works like that everywhere on the fretboard!

SO GLAD to have the extra detail & elaboration for this: I’ve struggled to “learn the fretboard” for decades (which has made me a wizard rhythm player BTW), and had turned to songwriting out of despair, which drew me to the bass. Using the circle of fifths to anchor & structure the exploration is seriously the very best lesson ever. I just got my 1st bass six weeks ago, but I’ve been watching your vids for over a year (an excellent entry to ‘the world of bass’). I only just ran across a previous vid of yours about this exercise in the last ~10 days & I’ve been working it daily. This has led to me spending more time actually *exploring* than feeling frustrated or self-conscious about my ignorance (makes it oddly like a piano); I’m seeing progress & enjoying the effort. I started this comment during the vid, so I can’t say I’ve taken it all in yet, but I can say that I’ve already seen enough to kick this exercise into high gear for me - the initial recommendation was to learn the first 3 notes (C-Bb), but I’d already been trying to add Eb & slightly worried I was expecting too much; your Eb addition removes that doubt. On top of that, I was reminded of that octave-jump trick, which I never had a use for before now. So now I’m on fire: got to grab a bite, watch this whole thing, and grab my bass. Thanks a lot, Scott (and friend)!

I recently purchased a practice glove to use with my bass after seeing them for the first time on this channel. What a game changer. I can navigate the fretboard with much more ease than before and find I can play a bit more quickly without my hands sticking to the strings. Not to mention how well my fingers feel after a long practice session.

I always look for all the different positions at the fret board to play my lines. It helps you to explore your instrument and memorize the notes if you already know other versions of the same line. After a while it becomes second nature to find the right frets without try and error. It's also a good starting point to train your ear once your fingers know the positions. You make a big leap in progress once you combine muscle memory with music theory. It’s a second way of thinking.

As a guitar player, I did this years ago and still do it today and every day. When I started playing bass about 3 mons ago I already knew the notes and with your post I feel I am moving rapidly. I did take a while to make a mental shift to remember the bottom string is not an E abd it is surprising that many players do not know the notes

This reminds me of a great exercise I was once given. My teacher told me to play a scale and to go up that scale 2 octaves, before coming down. But the catch was what made it a good exercise. You had to go up one way and then down another. You couldn't use the same hand position unless it was impossible to avoid it. For example: if you went up on an E minor going 0 2 3 on the E and then 0 2 3 (A B C) on the A, you'd need to go down playing 8 7 5 (C B A) on the E string to get back down. Moving that around with multiple scales really forces you to learn where every note is and how to play scales all across the neck. And it gets even harder when you add in a 5 string to the mix to get even more note possibilities

If you love them, why does it matter what someone else thinks? 😊 If you're asking about the difference between music man and sterling basses though, I would say that there is definitely a quality gap. A sterling may be all you need for gigs and recording. Upgrading to a music man will just be for the name/background and a slight upgrade in playability and features.

Because they were working "backwards" through the cycle of fifths and went into the "flat region" of keys first. if you go the other direction.....C, G, D, A, E, B.....then you would usually say F# and C# before sliding into Ab.,,and continuing to Eb, Bb, F, C Technically, there's no difference you can say F# and C# or Gb and Db and they're the same thing. You should recognize both ways of saying both of those keys. One is going to have a crapload of flats in the signature, the other is going to have a crapload of sharps in the signature. They're both super annoying to read, but they're not harder to play than any other key.

What's a good tool for practicing along to a simple drum track? Something more interesting than just a metronome or a click?

It’s so important to memorize the notes of the fretboard. Then yo can escape the matrix and become emperor of the universe. Naturally.

Learn the notes at the dots, your brain will quickly fill in the missing pieces. IE- 5th fret E string has a dot, it's an A. Fret down is Ab/G#, fret up is A#/Bb, no sweat

So Mr Scott why is this easy when starting from the E string but ridiculously hard when starting from the G string. I feel like I'm constantly looking for the octave relationship rather than instinctively knowing the note placement. 😬
