To all you aspiring bassist out there. I recommend improvising different arpeggio structures over the chord symbols and don't just play the tabs. Look at the chord symbols and think 1 3 5 7 scale degrees of those chords above each bar. On beat 4 before changing to the new chord it is acceptable to play a note out of the scale, so play a half step above or below (doesn't matter) to the new chord.
Definitely good advice but I'd add first to learn it the "structured" way. Once that foundation is laid, then the creativity can begin on a solid footing.
“before changing to the new chord it is acceptable to play a note out of the scale, so play a half step above or below (doesn't matter) to the new chord.” Not that it matters much, they called the out-of-scale note "approaching note", that is, the note approaching the next chord.
I personally recommend 1. learn sheet music and how it corresponds to the bass 2. Learn basic counting 3. Learn you 1 octave scales 4. Play some stuff to get better 5. Learn your 2 octave scales 6. Now that you know all of that you can look at the key signature for any song and just go for it and play on
I'm a percussionist, taught treble but also need to learn the bass cleft for Timpanis, also because I play bass in my band, I understood that it was the treble, but one whole step down, in other words. EGBDF - FACE is treble, GBDFA - ACEG is bass. I used Music Racer, mallets Note Names, level A is basic, really simple treble, B is kinda harder, but only adds accidentals and some basic ledger lines, C (last level) pretty much jumps like 6 things you should learn lol, if A and B where using training wheels, then C is operating a plane, you have 4 minutes to answer 13 notes which range between accidentals, bass and treble clef, ledger lines going up to 6 bars high, It's insane, but once you manage to crush it in a minute, you can practically recite the entire bass and treble clef with maybe 1-2 ledger lines above and below the measure without really questioning it. Don't quote me on anything I said though. It's just helped me, maybe you are a different kind of learner.
Heyo! I’m using right hand palm muting here to emulate the sound of an upright bass, and the notes I play are the same as the original recording. :) Tabs, Backing Tracks, Guitar Pro, and Bass Stems at www.patreon.com/NathanNavarro I'm playing THIS BASS: thmn.to/thoprod/443525?offid=1&affid=561
I listen to it since a year, finally I cna play it. Still such a pleasure how you do your magic. Thanks for the extra lessons and what you do for the scene
Thanks a lot for these tabs they have really helped me work on my sight reading and ability to play without looking at the neck and it is a beautiful song

Ok Im 100 percent using this video to learn this song. I like how you palm muted the bass guitar to make a more authentic upright bass sound. Very good. Been a fan of your videos for a while now.
Honestly I play guitar and I can never find a good lesson showing all the chords for this song. But even though this a bass lesson he has the chords on the top which is really helpful for me.
Wow what a pleasure watching you sounds perfect looking at tab I couldn't see atomactly where the notes whent it makes sense now I have watched your video Thank you I have seen other videos of yours and wondered when your thumb goes over the top of the fretboard are you actually playing that note on the E string ❤ love your pick playing takes time to master that not everyone plays with a pick It gives you a different tone and your speed is greater I like using a pick it gave me more freedom To have whole songs played with tab is a gift thank you for sharing your talent This is my 6th year playing bass no experience of music before in a band and enjoying it I am in my own world when I pick up my bass To have the help out there is great music is such a wonderful pleasure weather you play or not you can join in ❤
Appears to be all palm muted *except* for that open E at the E7flat9flat13. Keep up learning bass dude! I couldn't think of a better way to spend a quarantine!
Hey Gianmarco! Yes, I'm palm muting nearly everything on this one to emulate the sound of an upright bass. You can play it either way though. :) As andrewK pointed out, I didn't mute the open E at measure 52 for added sustain.
@@NateNavarro Muchas Gracias AMIGO! I´m trying to learn this "kind" of bass songs at this time do to my bass player level. thanks again for the response! means a lot to me
will you do more walking bass covers? really need help getting my walking bass vocabulary going, everything Ive done up until now sounds like im playing a practice rutine.
Excelente material, para mi es de gran información. Toco bajo, pero no domino la lectura, sin embargo es de gran ayuda. Muchas gracias. Saludos desde Honduras.
Hey Nate, Thanks for teaching me this song and "Dean Town!" I may have paid your rent a couple times the amount of times I've played along to these lol. Anyway, If you can do a play a long to "Galactic Funk" by Casiopea, that would be GREAT. They're a Japanese Fusion band from the 70s and they're amazing and I can't find a transcription anywhere
Great cover/lesson as always nate! Really appreciate these videos. BTW do you have any instructional videos on how you include the score and tabs. I would like to record what I learn and then be able to tab/score it out to see how it compares. Thanks in advance!
Congratulations! I recommend you record some more Jazz in this style. In addition to this great artist, Frank Sinatra and Dave Brubeck, post more videos like this. Jazz Artist = John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Charlie Parker, Bill Evans, Dexter Gordon, Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald, Dizzy Gillespie, Ray Charles, Michale Brecker.
I need an answer asap pls: does this line ever loop? Like without analyzing the line it seems hard to learn, and gotta remember it for tomorrow. Btw great cover

This walking bass line is super well put, but now, but when it starts to get exciting at the end with that 3-3-6-3-3-5-3-5, it abruptly cuts and the music ends. Is that a feeling that just I have?
Use your index and middle finger, you can turn the tone down, then use a sponge below the strings. Also, you can also use some flat wounds, thinner strings sound warmer. Use your index and middle finger simultaneously near the neck, away from the bridge

Why does this give me Christmas vibes?
Same!
took like 3 days but finally learned the whole thing. thank you :)))
Nice walking bass line. I like the clean, dry dampened tone, too. Nicely played, Nate 👍
Thank you Nate !
I don't listen to Sinatra often, but when I do, I play it loud enough for the neighbors to enjoy it too.
Always a pleasure to listen to you and observe your technique, Nathan. Thanks for sharing, man.
It’s such a good warmup. Gets your fingers moving
Sick bassline
Nathan Navarro you are awesome at the bass also THANK YOU FOR YOUR VIDEOS
Honestly I play guitar and I can never find a good lesson showing all the chords for this song. But even though this a bass lesson he has the chords on the top which is really helpful for me.
keeping it real with thumbing the notes just like the bassists did back in that day
Tracking this song...much appreciate the work!
Oh that's my favourite song
Neon Genesis Evangelion Fan here, thats what i looked for to play for my bass, you are a hero man!
All technicalities aside, that’s a great song and it made me soo happy.
Wow what a pleasure watching you
sounds perfect
looking at tab I couldn't see atomactly where the notes whent it makes sense now I have watched your video Thank you
I have seen other videos of yours and wondered
when your thumb goes over the top of the fretboard are you actually playing that note on the E string
❤ love your pick playing
takes time to master that not everyone plays with a pick
It gives you a different tone and your speed is greater I like using a pick it gave me more freedom
To have whole songs played with tab is a gift thank you for sharing your talent
This is my 6th year playing bass no experience of music before in a band and enjoying it
I am in my own world when I pick up my bass
To have the help out there is great music is such a wonderful pleasure weather you play or not you can join in ❤
I've always wondered how those notes fit into the song. Mind blowing how they don't sound dissonant
I love your sound!
Nathan the unsung hero of bass!
That Bass sounds phenomenal 🔥🔥🏴💯
Sounds like a P Bass.. Him muting n likely using flats helps a lot
hey Nathan! Big fan from Chile (Southamerica)
Quick question: its all in palm mute? im learning bass as a Quarantine gold. =) thanks!

Unexpected but a great tune to learn!

E7(b9b13) is a happy note
Awesome job I definitely will learn this song. btw is that a Harley Benton bass?
Who would dislike this? 7 people don't want to fly anywhere...
I need an answer asap pls: does this line ever loop? Like without analyzing the line it seems hard to learn, and gotta remember it for tomorrow. Btw great cover
i think it's not a loop. so many different variations, but if you just trying to learn one variations for the entire song i think that will do.

what kind of bass is that?
It looks like a Harley benton MJN4. Can't remember the name but remember dreaming about it for a few months
Oof, maybe I'm still bad, but I'm having trouble with this! Jumping around 4 strings is not all that easy for a beginner lol.
NOTA MIL GRATIDAO E GRATIDÃO MUITA LUZ A TODOS....ABRAÇO...PAULO BASS BRAZIL 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Awesome! Is there another way to play this without just using your right thumb and still sound like an upright bass?
Use your index and middle finger, you can turn the tone down, then use a sponge below the strings. Also, you can also use some flat wounds, thinner strings sound warmer. Use your index and middle finger simultaneously near the neck, away from the bridge
So that's why it's called the "Jazz Bass" 🔥
nice
nice ! maybe a P bass would sound even better in this style of music.
