    James: What's your biggest challenge learning the fretboard?
    Me: Yes.

      What is it about ‘me’ that is challenging!

      @@ebassguitar It's a joke.
      I myself am the biggest challenge.
      I just find memorizing the fretboard quite the challenge.
      Probably due to lack of experience. ;)
      That's probably why I love the Nashville number system so fantastic. On bass guitar it let's you 'feel' your way around the fretboard without knowing many notes.
      Love your channel, btw!

    I was taught the neck by playing the circle of 4ths (C F Bb Eb Ab Db Gb B E A D G) on one string saying the notes out loud as i play then when I got that down I stated playing The major scale starting on each note of the circle of 4ths. Then moved down one string and repeated etc etc

    I've just started playing bass after a couple of years of electric lead and rhythm playing, and didn't know the layout of the fretboard on a bass. I can see that it's the same in terms of root, 3rd, 5th and octave shapes.This has helped me get to grips with playing bass lines effortlessly, so thank you for the lesson, and making me realise how easy it is!

    Very good tutorial. Hardest for me are the beats to suit a song. shapes are easy for bass but how to play the beats related to songs need many practices. I suggest many more songs and bass rifts to master bass. TQ

      You can try The Spider Walk. It's a warm up exercise that will most definitely help improve your speed and accuracy on the bass guitar. You can check it out here:
