Thanks for the video Nate! They are very helpful! I have small hands, and it is a little bit more confortable to use the 3rd instead of 2nd finger for Ne-Ner-Ne. There is any reason to use the 2nd or it will be the same?

This sounds so good! I'm a cello student and I want to switch to the bass next year.

Swing it! 👯💃

Thank you

Thank you! Really great x

Thank you xx

Amazing saludos desde Costa Rica 🇨🇷🤟

Nate, I've been playing bluegrass bass for about 2 years. I'm a former brass player/music education major. I've gotten good enough to handle some good bluegrass jam sessions. But I always have to resort back to the single note grip (the claw as you call it) due to left hand fatigue. So hard to press down the strings enough for clean sounds, especially with fast tempos. Do you have any advice? Would you be willing to do a private lesson/zoom with me to discuss this? I'll pay for your time.

Too busy in my opinion.

I have noticed that most upright bass players stand to the side as in this instruction. I prefer to stand more behind the instrument. I do not need to see the finger board when I play and it just feels more comfortable in my experience.

have you ever considered playing with a backing track?

That is amazing.

Can you shuffle bow with the German hold?

That's flat-out kool Nate

Wow, what a lesson with instructions, and additionally a vocal to see a real application of the theory. Congrats!

Thank you, Mr. Sabat. Wonderfully done.

that's outstanding-makes me want to play a bass

I can learn how to play better by playing song and I am sure I not the only one so just putting it out there

Why isn't anyone teaching bluegrass songs on the bass ,I just looked for fox on the fun bluegrass song in bass lessons and other bluegrass songs and there are none on RUclips WHY

Pretty cool! A little bit of scat, too!

Get it NATE!!

Amazing playing, amazing sound

Pretty cool song! Haunting bass, too!

Sounds F'n great dude!!! Also Good voice man!!! 🤘

Amazing!! Love hearing the bass as a solo instrument, you make it shine so bright! :)

I love this, if only I could play it by myself

I'm not a bass player can I still watch

This should be viral this is simply amazing!

Love this tune. Nicely done!

That is excellent, Nate! thanks so much

Great instruction I learned so much. Thank you!

You continue to amaze & inspire!

At 1:54 you’re going “up to that top C”. Looking at your finger position I cannot find a C there. What am I missing?

Very tasty playing. I like the simplicity and the subtle ghost notes and fills here and there. I didn't realize you were the "Dirt Simple" book guy. I bought that last year and have worked with it a bit. Great book and great videos here, thank you.

Hi! I really like your videos. There are so few good bass videos on bluegrass bass on RUclips. Keep up the good work! I would love to see more stuff! /Cheers from Sweden, Mattias

Awesome Nate. Sounding amazing!

This was so helpful, deserves so many more views

Beautiful, steady tone, dude. Great stuff.

Great lesson! Gonna watch some more of your video's, thanks for posting them.

That's great, Nate! A great way to learn the melody, work on your arco, and baseline feel & sound ALL AT ONCE! 💛💛💛

Your videos are so cool thank you!

Could you say where you are setting when you say minus or pull out or centered. Is far left minus and pulling out? Is top centered and balanced? Far right has the most whatever? Thanks, but this has been hard for me to find out.

Nate these shuffle bowing videos are fantastic! I’m a folky bluegrasser who has messed around with the bow off & on for a few years and this video was a breakthrough for me!

Thanks for the PDF for this lesson on your Patreon page. You're an outstanding teacher. Online lessons are challenging and you are providing all the tools to make is successful.

At about 3:05, you go from the C arpeggio to what I think is the F note, which my ear likes. But then you stop & never play that I to IV progression again. Why do you go from the I to the IV there? As I’m practicing, I am following exactly what you are doing the rest of the lesson from C to Dm to E, etc. But my ear wants to go from the I to the IV, like you did briefly. Why is that? I feel like that’s what we would do with vocal warm ups? I hope my question makes sense!

I joined your Patreon. Thanks for the excellent digestible approach.

Great lesson! I use scales for warm ups. Sometimes I get so into them time passes and its not a warm up anymore. Call me weird I could play scales all day.

Yahoo. buddy~super~ amazing ~:))

Thanks!
