The Wooten brothers did a drum demo in Huntsville Al when I was in high school. Vic was mainly there to assist his brother but he pretty much stole the show. I bought a bass a week later
Whoa. I've been playing bass for what feels like 100 years or so...never saw/heard any of this. This man is BRILLIANT! Well done Travis Dykes! Thanks for the lesson.
Ive been playing bass for years and never knew what an arpeggio was. I play by ear and feel. Never knew what mode or an inversion was. I basically let my fingers go without thinking. Now after watching your videos, I can put two and two together and create something even more meaningful. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with the world. Aloha from Hawaii
I read about chordal tones and developing your bass lines around them.. a long time ago in one of those old standard great bass books (we used to have to learn from standard pro bass literature in the early 2000s before RUclips).. but it wasn’t until years later when I started playing chords while composing with bass that I realized exactly what that ment. You will naturally connect the chords by playing each single tone of the chord while filling in space and using melody between the chords… you throw a solid groove behind those single chordal tones and it’s a professional grade bass line. Lightbulb.
Thank you so much Travis for this lesson! 😃 Your concise and clear explanation and execution of triads and chords is impeccable. I’ll definitely be following you my brother! 👍🏻
this is 1 of the best lesson i've watch here on youtube, most of the lessons like this are scales and modes, yah they also teach patterns but this is something more easier to understand. Great Job Subscribed and like!
Most usable Arpeggios video I’ve ever seen! I’ve heard teachers touting the uses of arpeggios for decades now and every time I try to use them to make music it never seems musical. The back half of this video is exactly what I needed to hear. Great job! Keep it up!
Hi, first of all love your videos! Secondly, I was wondering if you could do me a favor. I am totally blind, so I rely on how much description you use in your videos. If you could do a little bit more detail on showing us patterns, finger, positioning, etc., etc. That would help me out so that way, I know where I need to start playing 23:48 and where you’re at on the fretboard! Hopefully that makes sense! Thank you.
Blessings from the Motor City, I've been playing at bass for years and now I'm trying to learn something that will actually help me, thank you for this lesson and all of your videos. Peace n Love
Thank you so much! Wow! This is the simplest way that I need to understand it easier. Way easier! Just need to practice… at least the concept is clear…. Really presented nicely! God Bless you bro!
I agree with you. However. James Jamerson played more chromatically. I have been playing a very long time and listened even longer. James choice of notes was always in the pocket, yet often his melodic choices stood nicely slightly independent from the song. btw What's Going On is one of my inspirations. I learned it by ear. Following just a chord chart on that song? Only James would come up with that line. It makes a beautiful bass solo on its own. Hey. Thanks for teaching the basics to new players. And reminding me how I learned to play this beautiful instrument.
Don’t fall into the trap of learning techniques/scales and then just parse them together randomly. Use your ear. Be musical always. On bass less is more
Good video man, I have that same black on black precision bass it's just the squire classic vibe version. There isn't a better looking fender color scheme imo
51 years young and picking it back up, don't get me wrong, I'm bad ass, but the break can do me good if I can pick up new techniques and leave some of the stale shit behind
Random question of the day! Is it better to record with d.i. box pedal thingy? amp mic'ed up? or both? asking for future irresponsibilities. I am not a real bassist, I just act like one on social media.
Both on separate tracks if possible, try wiring one 180 out of phase, i.e. stupid rich boy, 1=shield 2= red 3 =black swap 2 and 3 for the 180 shift, you'll thank someone later
Depending on how close your mic is to the cone, shift phase so that the lows reinforce each other, you have to listen to what it sounds like, imagine that......
I would say ,scales instead of chords when explaining arpeggios. Associate arpeggios with Pentatonics, avoid saying chords which are GROUPS of notes played together.. Jus' Say'in
maybe you can add "the keycentre is C or the 1 " or reffering to the rootnote to make those inversions make sense .. thanks good luck with your nice clips!

Its a Nice vídeo but where is sharay's tecnics?

That is one SEXY Precision Bass.

Some DI boxes have a switch, I just explained what the switch is doing
Depending on how close your mic is to the cone, shift phase so that the lows reinforce each other, you have to listen to what it sounds like, imagine that......
Do you play jazz? Have never seen a lesson about jazz.
It’s all chord tones. See Carol Kaye.
Here's the secret
Money is on the bottom frets.
No practice
No scales
Feel that shit
Like Lewis Armstrong said feel them note😢❤🙏
I would say ,scales instead of chords when explaining arpeggios. Associate arpeggios with Pentatonics, avoid saying chords which are GROUPS of notes played together.. Jus' Say'in
Shut up
Thank you I was wondering
Mabassman manyama
ruclips.net/video/3a1MATAasQU/видео.html That look at the camera after that nasty lick was so funny to me 😆
maybe you can add "the keycentre is C or the 1 " or reffering to the rootnote to make those inversions make sense .. thanks good luck with your nice clips!
😮
"Promo sm" 😅
Finally I understand Arpeggios , more live Sir 🤜🤛
