Transitioning from heavy metal guitar to bass and I love how you simplify it so well with out making it feel dumbed down at all. Awesome videos, awesome teaching. Can't wait to learn more
You gave me whole new perspective of how the bass adds a improved groove to a song
You bring us back to the percussion connection where we should begin and end as the rhythm section.. there is room for signature expression and syncopation working together.. but only after arriving at consistency and aquiring the discipline to know the difference-- Thanks for another great class..
Dear Mark, a great thanks you for all the YT-help you give! I'm a starting singing bassbabe (that nickname was given to me by the guiarplayer of the funchoir I sing with), I am an autodidact with few guitar autodidact skills. So I started from kinda zero and now I can basic play along with half of the songs we sing. I figure out what root where to play and that's a hell of a job for my not so super musically talents.
Your help with your vids is absolutely a diamond for me. It helps me a lot to play more than just basic altough I have to keep it very basic due to also singing.
In the non-sing-music-times in the songs I can make the bass line more interesting and I love it.
I have 2 friends: my Bass and my Mark 😎
This is very good not only for bass players but also for bass programmers who have to program bass lines.
I feel so fortunate to be able to access and learn from this great instructor. He touches on so many different and important points. The position in the car relating to the feel of the beat was a great analogy. If you seriously want to increase your knowledge and playing ability this is the guy to help you do it.
The white background makes it look like Mark is in heaven.
Well, at least that's where he'll be because of the help he provides us with.
I was reliably informed that heaven is verdant, not white atall.
I watch lots of your lessons and you're by far my favorite bass teacher online
I never really checked the website for some reason and just created an account, I'm so glad I did! It's so clear and useful. For a "room musician who never thought it was important to learn theory but who suddenly felt the urge to take music skills to the next level without being able to take class due to studies taking too much of my free time", your chanel and website are just perfect!
Thanks a lot
Excellent teaching again and very practical tools to apply! Thanks a lot, Mark!
I love you man!! Your explanations are absolutely killer! And you're not trying to showcase and sell equipment like many other instructional bass sites. Really great stuff!!
Excellent lesson! Very helpful! It’s so important to build these fundamentals! Thanks!
Love your bass - it reminds me of the old Ibanez basses I would drool over as a kid in the late 80s/early 90s. I have a SR506, but it isn't that sweet teal color!
helped me massively! ive flicked through your channel and added almost every video to my 'watch later' playlist. lol I could be here a while.......
It's been 2 months. Are they still in watch later list ? ;)
Youre awesome man,, you're instructions are bar none digestible, thank you!!..I play with the kick, or the start of the count lock in, and play with the crash and the hi hat all at different times of sometimes in conjunction with, I'm not playing with a guitarist tho, so it leaves room for improv and solo pieces.
As a beginning bass player, I love that repeating pedal note bass line with the octave played on the off beat with the ring finger. Luckily, I do some finger picking guitar, so after some practice, I got it relatively clean. Just that little thing makes the whole line more fun to play & listen to. A lesson with a whole lot of other things to learn too. Very nice :)
Thanks a lot Mark!! As a starter bassist I picked up a lot of tricks from your video. Keep up the great teaching!
Starting today I'm transitions from shred guitar to bass cool introductory lesson ! New subscriber
Me too, but this is 4 years old, what are the best resources?
Love the way you teach, the depth of your knowledge and willingness to share it. You’ve asked for songs we’d like to have you transcribe and I think a vulfpeck song with bassist joe dart would be awesome. Something like their version of “Disco Ulysses”, “dean town” or “i lost my treble long ago” would be awesome to hear your explanation and side notes of joes groove. Anyways hopefully you see this and either way I look forward to anything you put out. Stay up.
Ur lessons are always helpful Guruji🎸
Great insight into the mechanics of "feel." You are a great teacher
This really helped me more than I can say.
thanks for saying that about leaving room for the snare to breathe! i recently recorded a simple bass line that did that but now i understand why it sounded good.
BIG Thankyou!! That explained sooo much!! Keep them coming
2:04 "It's gonna be a simple, medium tempo straight pop feel with no singing pterodactyles..."
O_O
With no syncopated accents
Thx Jay!
Really cool demonstration that helps me to understand bass a lot more. Thanks!

Most important bass lesson in my life.
thank you very much you have a special way to teach, I like it, thanks again!!
Wow what a video
If you played bass in a band
With keys and guitar and drums would you expect to hear your bass
I am at the very bottom of the mix in the band not hearing any of my notes except my E noat it's like playing and I am deaf been playing bass 6 years
Last 2 years when keys were added I have been a silent bass player finding the groove not there any suggestions it's depressing thank you
Great lesson. Looks like you were jamming bass on a safari though when you made this video
very good thank you this is exactly what I was wondering how to do play along with a song in a band that plays off chords with not other guide and being new to bass I didn't know how to create and bass line for the song. Question? Are you muting the string with your pinky after you play the note to shorten the sustain?
Awesome lesson. I wish you had counted out the other drum beats like you did the first one.
Awesome teacher!
Simple and clear.
Excellent video
great lesson tanks

This is a really cool video but i cant find the backing tracks in talkingbass
You're really good, it makes me want to learn sheet music so I can keep up better.
Good tips
That bass looks just like mine! :)
thanks
how do we stay enthused?
get video, do you have anything on latin salsa beat. thanks.
How can u get this backing track
Was this guy the bassist for The Wiggles? He looks familiar
thank uh thank uh
much n much 😍😍
watched this today, September 22, 2022
The bass drum is hitting on 4, but your bit i s not, so it makes it hard to read the notation. It is easy by ear, harder to see how we are locking in.
just wish the songs being used weren't so corny.. lol. Didn't matter though, the information was really good for this newbie trying to unlearn bad habits and relearn proper methods for writing basslines
Those embellishments kinda flex tho
💙👊😎
Lordy!
what bass is that??
It's Ibanez Soundgear. Since it has Accu-Cast BIV bridge, it's from the first half of 90's, and the model is... I'd say SR1000.
best school on y.tube...unfortunately in English!!!
Too much talking and time consuming
