  • Hey guys!
    In this lesson, I wanna share with you WHY I like these three scales the most out of a plethora of scales. I often approach anything I do in the simplest way possible, eventually maximizing what I can get out of it in the long term of the shed.

    I agree with the person 2 post down. You get a beautiful tone on that instrument. Wonderfully clean and beautiful. Thanks for posting about the melodic minor, symmetrical and major scales. Ive learned the harmony behind the major scale being Maj 7th, minor 7th, min 7th, dom 7th etc and have found this very useful in figuring out chords to many songs.

    At around 9:20 you mention a potential future lesson about the symmetry of both melodic minor and diminished, please do a lesson on this!!!

    hey anthony.. in regards to your comment about it's waste a time trying to think the minor scale a separate entity.. can't you argue when you're thinking of improv over a minor song, it's helpful to keep in my that the minor i is the tonic? .. unless you do it differently?

  • @naiyalexic
    @naiyalexic 4 года назад

    Beautiful playing. Can you share your setups: pickups, string height, how you are able to play so cleanly? My bass is very noisy, and I could use advice on how to get it to sound much cleaner, when I play, without sympathetic sound from other strings. I don't really want to use a dampener or mute; higher end basses sound much better. I have very low action... What can I do differently? Thank you!

    • @jisujisujisujisu

    • @vooveks
      @vooveks 3 года назад +1

      Are you familiar with various muting techniques? Floating thumb, for instance? It’s mainly that. Also, you don’t need or want too low an action. It affects tone. You need a decent action, but too low and it starts to cause issues. But yeah, it’s mainly left and right handed muting and whilst practicing, playing slower to get a cleaner and more even sound on each note, before speeding up.

  • @johnathan649
    @johnathan649 5 лет назад +4

    How do you get that tone?? Sounds like butter. Mind saying your EQ settings as well as pickup settings?(assuming your on bridge pickup fully)

    • @AnthonyMuthurajah
      @AnthonyMuthurajah  5 лет назад +3

      My EQ is almost always at 12 O clock on the amp. Bridge pick up, full volume with a little tone. That's about it. Thanks man!

    I’ve written this on your other vids. I can appreciate your exampling the scales. You simply go too fast to decipher the way you play these scales. So, I personally can not replicate the great intervals your demonstrating . Thanks anyway.

    Interesting, but I find your take on modes and ruling them out a bit vague. Major is a mode. Why rule out all the modes? What about pentatonic scales?
