Dude you are amazing. I love and appreciate your straight to the point approach to the bass, theory and all. I have been following you now for about a month or two and you are one of the best online bass teachers I have come across. Super knowledgeable, full of great tips and info. Your lessons are easy to understand, but the work you put into the PDF's PRICELESS. with the videos and the PDF's alone, i have improved so much. Also, I have to say I am fan enough that I am becoming and member of your online courses immediately. Thanks a bunch. you have no idea how much i have accelerated in my understanding and playing. MY GUY good looks brov. Peace.
Delantay. Thanks for the lovely message! I’m so happy that you’re improving; that really is the main thing. Keep up the practice and let me know if you have any questions I can help with. All the best! Dan.
Hi Dan! Another great lesson! Awesome pdf as well! I will be studying this and practicing until it gets easier. Thank you! Also, as I mentioned before, I joined the band my husband is in and wrote the basslines for the latest album project, thanks to you! We spent two days this past week in the recording studio and laid down the rhythm tracts. First time recording for me, what a great experience! The guys are really happy with my basslines too! Thank you Dan! 😊❤🙏🎵🎶
This made my brain 🤯 when it clicked how relative things are. I find that I naturally play penatonic scales when playing around even say when I decide to play in g major scale. Always wondered why it works. Great great video. I need to watch again as the info was dense in a good way. I find my getting stuck in a pattern and struggle to get out of it. Thanks for this. Great video as always.
Online Bass Courses I have a question actually. I understand the numbering system. It rather makes sense for a beginner like myself. What I wonder is if the numbering system is specifically for the major scale or can it be also used for different modes say like the pentatonic scale. I ask this as the pentatonic has less notes than a major scale.
@@soulstart89 All chord and scale formulas are based on the major scale, i.e. major chord is 1 - 3 - 5, minor chord is 1 - b3 - 5, Dorian mode (scale) is 1 - 2 - b3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - b7, but you can certainly get groups of notes to form triads by numbering say a minor pentatonic. The notes of A minor pentatonic are A - C - D - E - G. Skipping notes to form triads, you can get A - D - G to form some sort of A chord with a sus4 (aka 11) and a b7 leaving out the third that defines it as major or minor, C - E - A to form Amin second inversion, D - G - C to build a triad in fourths - maybe a Gsus4 or Csus2 and others. E - A - D (Esus4 with b7) and G - C - E (C major) are possibilities as well. You can use these shapes to construct lines that you may not otherwise think about. I think experienced players like Dan often change the order of notes in a scale to get an interesting and pleasing sound.

Great teaching! Chilled approach to turn music theory into applications on the fretboard in a uncomplicated, relaxed way!
Thanks very much, Jens! 👍🙏

Thanks very much! Glad you had that moment. Check out the one I did with the C Major arpeggios.
Online Bass Courses since lockdown the penny had dropped with my bass.
I will definitely go check out that video. Cheers.

@@soulstart89 Musicians only use it for major/minor 7 note scales, in my experience anyway!
