- Jim Stinnett, a world-class educator, former Berklee professor, and my mentor, was kind enough to invite me to appear in this online lesson in two-handed tapping. In this episode, I demonstrate some exercises that will develop strong fundamentals in tapping technique. Developing a strong foundation is essential to technical mastery.
Jim creates the highest quality online bass education that I have seen. Check out his channel here: / @realbasslessons9356

omg charles is actually being camera shy in this video XD
RIP Jim. Watching this video you can tell jim and charles have total respect and admiration for each other.
I had no idea Jim passed. I knew him, his family and studied bass at his home many times. sad.
Strange irony that the day I discovered Mr Jim Stinnett's work (thanks to your videos, Charles), I saw that he passed away... RIP and respect for what he brought to the music world (sorry for the broken English, I'm French...be merciful).
On a separate note, can you suggest some french CZcamsrs and singers for me?
@@thatdude8884 not really any of those two, but you should check out pv nova. He makes greatly educational yet very fun videos (although he may be quite hard to understand if you are not fluent in french) about music genres, theory or production.
I took Jim’s slap bass class in 1997 at berklee. Fond memories. Thanks for sharing.
We've come a long way from fedora Charles.
This explains why he is a *pro*
Jim Stinnet: awesome teacher, humble, engaging and just awesome! RIP
Reason Charles is so good his own integrity but the key ingredient was this amazing teacher who just looked so fun to actually study with and receive Criticism from R I P to the mentor of the greatest bass player to ever grace this earth thanks for sharing
All the time I wondered where Charles has become a professional. Thank you, now I know, of course Jim Stinnett had something to do with it. Two very sympathetic people. Congratulations Jim, Charles is from my point of view an insane bass player.
That teacher is super supportive. A lot of teachers are tough as nails, and it can be intimidating and counter productive . 🌬
This teacher probably saw the great potential in him as a player but also composer. Also seems so sweet and so complimentary of him, he would be proud to see him succeed
Jim seems like a really and great teacher.
Between him and your desire and work ethic it is not
surprising how great of a player you are. Nicely done Charles !
You are an inspiration.
I've been watching Charles for a while, but I decided to go to his very early stuff to see what it's about. A few earlier ones were almost painful to watch since he was a little self conscious on camera, the sound wasn't so good, and he wasn't as accomplished. Here, he's coming along and his awesome is starting to show. I think this is a good point of inspiration for those who wonder if they can be half as awesome as Charles: well, maybe. You can see here, he was a LOT more like us regular folks. This gives some insight into how it was done and what it takes. Thanks Charles a few years from now for the hard work.
Imagine, here you can see one of the very, very best bass players listening most respectfully to his Yoda-teacher (who perhaps might not even tap as well as his student can) ...
Awesome. Such role models!
This is the sweetest video I ever seen :)
Seriously, I had a saxophone teacher who was like your teacher. To see your relationship is so wonderful :)
OMG .... this is really eye opening and awesome. Thanks a lot Mr Jim Stinnett and Charles 🙏
Jim and charles hit the mark and made a beautiful masterpiece 11:26 . I could listen to that all day and relaxing.. Make some more please:)
That scale exercise makes it sound like an 8 string bass. Excellent.
Because that's exactly what would happen on an eight string bass: you play a note, it rings with it's octave.
OMG new Charles skin unlocked Charles with fedora
I think he is the best bass tapper I have ever seen. In fact is at least one of, if not THE best bassists in the world. He literally sounds better than Wooten when he does a Wooten piece. It's amazing.
I'm so glad to see him getting the success he has so definitely earned.
Thank you for uploading this!
humble beginnings
Lovely duet. Thank you. Love the voice of your bass. Masculine , tender and sensitive.
oh my lord jims bass is beautiful
So glad I came across this, it puts Charles' fantastic technique into perspective. I'm off to practise my scales now!
Why aren't there more views on such an amazing legendary video?
I’m so happy to see you guys in a video together
Check how calm Jim is! Amazing
WOW YOU ARE GREAT CHARLES
What an awesome teacher!
I really appreciate this one Charles 💙 ty man. I was just about to give up on the bass. So discouraged
The student becomes the teacher ....awesome Charles 💪👍
Thats when the legend was born
Nice. This explains where Charles got to the sky high tapping. I had no choice but to tap. Broke right hand, but was stuck on contract to finish 2 years of touring and playing with a great local band. I learned how to play funk with one hand. In short, once right hand was better, I figured..... Why not tap both hands. so in a short time I was now known for this "Stanley Jordan" tapping on bass. Charles. You are beyond where I am on tapping, but very similar. keep up the great work.
Charles had an excellent mentor!
Yes the right hand ring and pinky are the hardest to start, even just to make some sound from the strings.
I bought the book just now. Waiting patiently for it to arrive :D
Wow I didn’t know this guy taught Charles! Cool
and yes that is fun to play! 9:30 thanks for sharing!
Jim was a great teacher.RIP
Я бы хотел учиться у Тебя, но, почему то Ты не показываешь, как играть, так же, как Ты - Ты, Лучший басист в Мире.!!!!! - СПАСИБО Тебе.
i agree that bass is fine, Jim whats that tone. i love it
Too few people have seen this ❤️
9:30 amazing!
This teacher is, using his own words, 'totally cool'
Any chance you could make a video on how you setup your bass? Pretty new to bass and I feel like my action is to high and I can’t get it lower without it buzzing badly. It’s pretty high now and it can play clean, but tapping is basically impossible with how it’s setup and sounds like completely wrong notes unless it’s plugged up and it’s very quiet. I don’t have any place local to go and get my bass setup so it’s pretty frustrating atm
Posterity and legacy
Now I like this Charles! This is what I'm talking about! Do some teaching and explaining about your fundamentals. Keep it up, and forget about Davie 504 and all that shit, I mean your still just as good, but be serious about it and move on into the teaching world. And don't worry about the camera man, just know your a great musician!
Great video. I'm from Germany and I would like to buy your book, but it's not possible to get one in Europe. Is it also available as an e-book?
And now he's one of the living God of Bass
Does anyone know where to get the Grant Stinnett Tapestry Book? Amazon says it's unavailable.
I just read the comments. So bummed on his passing
R.I.P Jim!
Is there any book to learn this?
❤
Was Jim playing a fretless at the end there?
I think I need that book, Charles I think Ryan is signing up for your Patreon...
you mean Ryan Martinie?
I’m curious as to what brand of bass that is.
Charles pls list here the couple books you guys talked about.
Tapestry - Grant Stinnett
Two-handed tapping - Charles Berthoud and Jim Stinnett
RIP JIM
Watching this in (close to 2021) is superweird... :D
Charles really developed himself a lot.
👍
Is there anywhere that you can get the book for less than $400.00
és muy belo de se oir
I'm not sure I understand. At the end, Jim's bass sound fretless to me, but I can at the very least see fret marks on the neck. Are they simply removed or it's possible to make a fretted bass sound fretless?
A few fretless basses have lines for the bassist's convenience but they aren't "frets" per se. If you looked at them from the side, they aren't raised above the fretboard, merely visual markers. (Edit: it's not a lot, it's a few, it seems that some bassists add them. I'm not a fretless player myself.)
It's called "line fretless" and it is very common.
What's the actual action on that bass? And all basses you usually use?
Lower that 5mm
Nice Fedora
way more finish on that bass then compared to today
It feels weird seeing Charles socializing
is that a Godin fretless??
RPL 65
Anyone got idea why my bass out of tune after 12th frets?
If a bass is slightly out of tune, it would be easier to hear that after the 12th than before
The intonation needs to be set up. There are a lot of videos already on CZcams to explain how to adjust intonation yourself. It's really simple to do...don't be afraid...you'll be glad you did it and proud of yourself, too!
I miss Jim and I never met the guy.
Странно мало просмотров у этого видео.
It`s 2021 and he practices 420 hours a day :)
Reminds me of Cus D’Amato and Mike Tyson
DAMN! Jim died (i believe) from a massive Hear Attack, and that truth is it "may" have been due to his obesity. I have and do struggle with this too, so please understand me, this stuff is not the result of weakness - it, like type 2 diabetes is a "Political Disease". All the food lobby's that keep our food full of sugar and salt. All the "extras", the miseducation and the consumerism. Damn them. What a lovely guy Jim obviously is. As long as there is a bass playing somewhere, his spirit is with us.
Checkmate
Up
Talk about a flashback
*didn't we*
Ling Ling 40 hours of practice...2020
oh your name WELL THATS EASY
Jim's bass just sounds off....maybe it's the type of strings or the electrical components... not sure. Could just be me.
It sounds like it's been recorded direct with no reverb or amp sim/IR, so it's very very dry.
Charles I love you but what’s up with the hat?
Both are very good however, I think I need my ears checked...(referring to the end of the vid) I heard some sour notes and didn’t seem to flow together...I maybe wrong which after reading some of these comments I would say I am. I just can’t enjoy the ending hearing those notes that seem to not belong. I’m sure someone will tel me how what I’m saying is ridiculous and I’m not worthy a listen. I get it, every guitarist says they can play it better.... I’m not a guitarist, nor am I even slightly close to these guys playing... just not this song for me. Sorry to the fans...
Why the stupid hat?
Charles, you should be a session player. Start doing less pretty songs and starting doing upbeat stuff man. Get crazy. You can do anything. Give the majority what they want. You can still do the pretty stuff but show your elite. Please
The old guy disappointed me a lot. I thought he was kind of a genius xD
He is, which is evident from his playing...
Sarcasm guys
Jim Stinnett speaks in such a patronizing way its distasteful. How do people go through life being so rude thinking they are being polite when they are condescending?
He's a teacher, this is a professional demeanour when teaching. Its welcoming, inviting, encouraging and neutral. He must work with small children a lot while teaching. I think your response to his manner is a glaring example of being too prideful. If you take offence to someone being peaceful and kind then THEY aren't the problem.
I didn't sense any of what you're talking about whatsoever.
Russell that's really ridiculous, it's pretty obvious Jim is using interview techniques and explanation for other students. It's not in the least patronising nor rude but an example of a coach/teacher explaining something.
If you criticised him for the thigh slap, which Charles then wiped, that would be valid. Standards have changed, it unfortunately used to be common
Russell mate, lighten up!😊 dont be looking for the worst in people and finding faults where they dont exist
Jim was one of the greatest bass teachers ever. He was a professor. He was an extremely humble man who wanted nothing but the best for his students.
We could all take a lesson in how to conduct ourselves from Jim Stinnett.
