Wow that video teached me something i spent a days pondering with in my head... Never got the idea of just treating it like blocks... I'm not sure if i should feel super stupid, or happy that i get it now..
Wow! Mark, thank you again for the amazing video. I have been really struggling with playing sixteenth notes recently, and this video has really helped😀 What you have taught in this video, along with everything else, has turned me from a wanna be bassist to a gigging musician, and I want to thank you for that!
Hey Mark! I really appreciate all the free and helpful stuff on the channel, I have been using the channel since ij started playing bass till now, keep up the good work Mark, and Stay Safe and Keep It Up!
Ive spent the last 3 months building my own bass from scratch and learning music theory in the mean time on my keyboard. I finished it like 3 weeks ago and been practicing and still learning as much theory as possible everyday. I have to say this is one of the most helpful lessons for me so far. My main focus right now is speed and my fretting hand. I feel like Im having the most trouble crossing string with 16th notes
Great lesson. More accessible than Jeff's stuff, and more academic than Scott's (no shade on Scott... zi see a great benefit in academic training). Wonderful
Hey, I like your vids a lot! Thank you. Question: what about one of the most funky groove ...“lost my treble...“ by vulfpeck. Could you make a vid, to teach that song? That would be awesome.
Non-topic related... I always wonder if professional bass players have their string setup very low on the pickups. Do they? Because it seems that they always (most of the time) have a very light touch and still get a fine deep loud enough tone. Any thoughts on that? Or is it the knobs settings? And if so: what are the settings? Also: what string gauge do you use? Because i read somewhere that the pros also use much lighter string gauges than a student or amateur player knows or is taught.
To be honest, none of that really matters. My action changes all the time based on the weather because I can’t be bothered adjusting the truss rod every time we get a cold/hot spell. As for touch I’m generally quite light when plugged in. You should adjust your volume accordingly. Knobs I have totally flat. Strings are usually medium 45-105 for me. I hate to say it but there’s no substitute for experience. I’ve been playing for about 32 years now and there are things I do based on hundreds/thousands of gigs that I wouldn’t have been able to learn from a teacher. It’s all just stuff that happens as you play more.

Thanks so much Mark. You are great, methodical and patient teacher. I don't think anyone would feel performance pressure
learning from you!
That is why we need to learn the importance of reading music and understanding the rhythm patterns in every bassline.

Thanks Mark. I've recently joined an orchestra & sight reading is an absolute must. This is really helpful 👍👍
Practising this for a few weeks has truly elevated my playing. Came back here to say thanks again Mark!

Hello from France
Thank you,Mark.
Good lesson for solid foundation
sooooo helpful!
Thanks !
Great lesson. More accessible than Jeff's stuff, and more academic than Scott's (no shade on Scott... zi see a great benefit in academic training). Wonderful
I agree that it is more clear than Scott's
Last two beats of bar 2 is s nice little exercise in shifting quickly for noobs. Just an observation.
Really good! A toolbox.
Hey, I like your vids a lot! Thank you.
Question: what about one of the most funky groove ...“lost my treble...“ by vulfpeck.
Could you make a vid, to teach that song?
That would be awesome.
Beat it is good song to begin with for learning.

The pitched example has a strong Mel Schacher vibe.
nice tan, been to flordia?
That fret buzz is driving me mad!
No fret buzz on the Enfield. I suspect you're probably watching on a phone and only hearing stuff over about 400hz. That's basically treble.
@@talkingbasslessons Oh, man.. you are correct. Once I put on my good headphones it was gone. It was my crappy desktop speakers. Thanks Mark!
Am I the only one who thinks that 6 rhytmic cells are presented exactly at 6:06 on purpouse?
It's my inner Stanley Kubrick coming out
