Yet another lesson that gives me a lot to think about and practice. The resources supplied are among the best I have seen before from a free lesson

You are truly amazing sir!! You created music with just a few chords, and it sounds so good!! One of the best lessons I have come across online.

Wonderful lesson. Just what I needed, to find new ways of playing solo to my rhythm machine and backing tracks. Thanks a lot!

I'm still working on developing talent, but if I do strike it lucky and find myself in possession of any, you are most welcome to it 😜

This is brilliant and just what I need. I also need a bass that has that tone. What is that bass?

@academyofbass 3 ай бұрын

Thanks👍The bass is nothing fancy, in fact it's a bit of a mongrel. It's a Fender P body (reissue) and an ESP Jazz neck (modelled on a 60's Jazz) with an ebony fingerboard. The pickups are EMG (PJ configuration), it has an original Badass bridge and the tuners are Schaller. I've had it since the early 1990's, but it was very cheap. Any standard Fender with the same PJ set would probably wipe the floor with it, but I like it! I have an identical Jazz bass too (different colour).

Tried to download using my email address, the link wouldn't recognise my email😢

If you follow the link and put in a correct email address it should work perfectly. Ive not experienced this problem. Give it another go and if it doesn’t work send me a DM please.

thanks for the lesson ! Hey man, what a good PB sound...... what's your settings please ? (bass, PU's, strings, pre, Amp, FX.....) ? cheers from Cahors-France

@academyofbass 3 ай бұрын

Thank you 🙏. The P Bass is very standard. Alder body, maple neck, EMG pickups. I use D’Addario XL170 strings. The strings are far from new and the tone is only ⅓ on. What you are hearing is 100% flat, with no EQ, or compression. It’s all just me and the bass.

@jperrygrove 3 ай бұрын

Brilliant as always. Lost me a bit at the end when you said notes resolving to other notes . My fault not yours. Ill have to do more research/homework

@academyofbass 3 ай бұрын

Resolve is just a technical term. Very roughly, it’s when a note that isn’t considered to be part of a chord is moved to a note that is part of a chord. Notes within a chord always sound nice, so taking a note that doesn’t belong and then moving to a note that does, usually sounds very nice. Hope this helps 👍

Yes it does. Thanks for that

Was your A string a bit out of tune?

@academyofbass 3 ай бұрын

Ooh that’s a bit harsh David 😜 I always check my tuning before filming, but there’s always a chance. I didn’t notice it myself. Was there a particular section you thought was out?

Actually teaching some fundamentals as opposed to a 'how to...' play this style/bass line/song; much better, proper music :) Wonder why you haven't as many subscribers as Scott? Perhaps most people want a recipe, a magic formula, instead of applying themselves to a craft. Eeh, the world today... ;-)

@academyofbass 3 ай бұрын

Thank you so much, that’s very nice of you to say. I’m a relative newcomer to the online world. Hopefully in time, more of those players that want to develop their playing will discover and enjoy my lessons🤞
