Hello Julia . what a Gr8 lesson .. I would like to mention a couple of points that might help players in the long term .. a) Many players advise practicing while standing up as if you would at a live performance . ( altho I cannot do this myself due to spinal injury & I have to put a cushion on my left knee & try to play the best I can ) 2nd Some times for tonal reasons playing the notes on just one string can be a choice 3rd I have been told & warned by Medical professionals that over a long period of time having one leg crossed over another " May contribute to Circulation problems & also to muscle & spinal problems over a number of years .. Sadly it is too Late for me Boo Hoo LOl as I am 65 & past it But For a young person anticipating 40 or 50 years of playing Posture is almost as important as Caring for the persons Hearing . So sorry to be the Boring old person with the boring advice .. I love your approach making the lesson easy to understand & not to hard for a New player . But I really think if someone plans to stand or run around on stage Night after Night it is important to include for consideration the purely physical effects of playing . Although many Modern Bass instruments are lighter & when you are young & strong you just don't care But if you damage your Back you will not enjoy playing so much . We do not all have Roadies Lol Love you Peace & joy to all Stay safe . & Be cool.
Hi Julia in Vienna, very well done. Good explanation what arpeggios are and how to use them musically. Every music teacher at school would be proud of you.
I finally found a tutorial I really feel like I learned something that I was desperately trying to grasp for! It’s like a new revelation ! Thank you !!!
I play bass arpeggios all the time. It's a great way to get extra notes with minimum effort. Once you memorise the fret positions for each chord interval you can add arpeggios without over thinking it. Definitely worth learning this technique 😉👍
Excellent demonstration and teaching technique. Love how you applied the arpeggios with the metronome, you make very understandable for all watching your video. Please pout more videos out on rhythms and left hand techniques. Greatly appreciated! Michael from Los Angeles
Julia, thank you for the lesson on Arpeggios! I'm a retired drummer that suddenly decided to take up the bass and your lessons are a great help to me! Thanks again.
Probably the best way to learn any instrument is by learning all the arpeggios of a major or minor scale. On sax for me it’s easy, on bass or guitar, really hard because the fretboard is madness. 😂 Nice lesson, thx. 👍🎸
A great major arpegio bass line (with the fourth added) for those who want to practice it, is the one Macca played on "I Saw Her Standing There" by those lads from Liverpool (can't remember their names).
Excellent lesson. Arpeggios are very important, they are a basic building block for literally anything you want to do on the bass for every style and genre. I travel to Germany and Vienna often for work. I bought a Harley Benton that I keep in my office in Leverkusen so I have something to play when I go to Europe and not have to deal with carrying a bass with me on the airlines. I will be in Vienna in a few weeks. What music shops are near Am Tabor that would be interesting to visit?
Remember seeing something about Tina Weymouth on how she listened to lots of Motown and it influenced her use of arpeggios in many Talking Heads and Tom Tom Club songs.
Hello Julia stupidly pleased to get a Like for my comment .. Thank you makes me feel less like an old Boring muso .. so here is another tip I use Yoga blocks for my feet .. Classical Guitar position is guitar on left knee & foot raised on a foot stand ( if you are right handed ) Yoga blocks I found on a famous shopping site & are made of a very sturdy kind of dense foam ? But not only can they be used under smaller speakers as sound isolation but when I am playing I stand on a pair of quite thick blocks in my socks & I am able to keep my old bones moving . This is not recommended use & I am not to blame if you fall .. But I find so many uses for them as a disabled person .. for example if I need to kneel down & I can kneel on one & use the other to help me get back up . Obviously this would vary from one person to another & also on the style & size of yoga blocks used . Normally I keep all my plugs & switches at waist height & the last time a plug board fell down I had to crawl under the table to get it back up & when I turned over I just had to lie there & laugh .. for a while Not only could I not get up because my swivel chair on it's wheel which I had planned to use to climb back up kept sliding away from me But I could not call on my wife for help as I had placed my guitar just inside the studio door & she would not have been able to get in . Luckily I was able to use the Yoga blocks to get myself back up eventually . All my own fault In my younger days I used to run & jump to land sliding on my knees while playing the guitar ( like footballers after scoring a goal ) Pete Townsend from The Who used to do it .. I am looking forward to the summer when all this Euro / tunnel border stuff is more easy as with extra Vat & long waits on importation . Thomann has so many items at best prices .. Anyway Peace & love to all at Thomann team Stay safe Be cool This troubles will pass in time. bye
Hi Julia, i have a question: how can i use the 5 fingerings (or boxes) of arpeggios (major and minor triads is enough for now) togheter, like the 5 boxes of pentatonic scale? Do them exist? and if they do, can you do a lesson about them? it would be great for me!
Hallo there beautiful bassist. Thank you again for another great video and for the lessons. I was kind of hoping that we would get to see you play that super funky Bootsy Collins star space base next to you. It looks like it might be a short scale though and I'm not sure if you play short scale bass or not. Anyway, thanks again for another great video and for gracing us with your talent and beauty.
0:20 - "You're instantly asking yourself 'Why the hell should I learn arpeggios?'" No. I'm asking myself "What's up with Bootsy Collins' bass in the background? Does he know you got it?"
It took my stupid brain a while to realise that you meant the 4th finger and not the 4th note in the scale ... Your minor scale demo reminds me of the Victor Wooten session at Thomann when he explained that you can play ALL of the wrong notes and get away with it as long as you have the right FEEL. So yeah ... just funk it :)
Hola Julia! No se puede traducir este video al español? Me aparecen desactivados o no disponibles los subtitulos...! Muy buenos tus videos, saludos de Argentina!!
Great info. Just one suggestion please please turn up your volume on the amp or the bass with out listening with earphones it's almost impossible to hear your bass. The Metrodome is even louder than your bass. The volume is so low on all your bass videos. Not trying to be rude only want to hear what you are playing thanks!!
I didn't realize how playing bass is so good exercise if you play guitar. With a good workout on the bass, soon I can fly all over the guitar fretboard.
Hi Julia, veeeery important question: when will the band start, Mary's band with you, Reyna and so on. Adam as second bassist :-) Ich sage mal, "des wär ur leiwand". And thanks for the videos, very inspiring.
Why did it never occur to me to play the minor 3rd on the same string as the root rather than reaching across the next highest string?! That is going to make things much easier, thank you.
We need more Julia’s bass lessons.
Agreed
Most definitely!
Don’t know if we need, but always a pleasure ❤
❤🎉😊💯

7:20 Julia is now just flexing by showing her ability to read music and play at the same time! :P
That's a valuable skill for getting studio work.
Sightreading on the spot is essential for most professional musician careers.
@@melindamercier6811 For session players, indeed!

Came for the star bass, stayed for the arpeggios
Mir gefällt der Sternenhimmel im Hintergrund :-)
Merci für deine wertvollen Erläuterungen.
These Thomann lessons are awesome, a great resource.
Awsome, only bummer is that you didn´t use the star bass.
Yea ... some Bootzilla on that “space-face” bass would have taken those arpeggios straight to the Funkosphere!!
What did Chekhov say about a Star Bass appearing in the first act?
@@petercheney8316 😀 Hope Julia knows her Chekhov. 💫
She does in a different video.
The best lesson on arpeggios by far. I hope you do more like this. :-)
Micro lessons like this are always useful. Thank you.
Just watching her play is worth the price of admission. She gives out such great knowledge
Julia, thank you for the lesson on Arpeggios! I'm a retired drummer that suddenly decided to take up the bass and your lessons are a great help to me! Thanks again.
I'd love for Julia to start an on line bass school with all her knowledge ..id be the first to sign up!!!
Wow you just blew me away. I’m trying to get back into bass, and this helps!!! Thank you so much!
Probably the best way to learn any instrument is by learning all the arpeggios of a major or minor scale. On sax for me it’s easy, on bass or guitar, really hard because the fretboard is madness. 😂 Nice lesson, thx. 👍🎸
Your so right...the fretboard is schizophrenic!
The easiest way to memorize them is to remember that it's the same intervals no matter what key you're in: the tonic, the third, and the fifth.
A great major arpegio bass line (with the fourth added) for those who want to practice it, is the one Macca played on "I Saw Her Standing There" by those lads from Liverpool (can't remember their names).
the beatles!
Very nice and inspiring lessons Julia!! Keep going!! I am happy that I learned something new today!!
I do enjoy watching you play. You get so into it! 💖
How about a special with Level 42 (Mark King) bass lines? I love this channel, how about original work Julia?
Julia thanks for what you’re giving us
EXCELLENT! Definitely helpful.
Please provide more of these.
Thank's Julia for the lesson, and i really liked the Donauwalzer! :)
Great video Julia! As always!
Awesome, pretty much knew that but still learned a new way to look at it and use it 👍
I would love playing songs I do not know by heart just like Julia did!
Thank you Julia, just what I needed to help me grow as a bass player ! Cheers ....
Bravo, Ms. Julia!
Congratulations for you,your videos are excelent and very inspiring to learn.
This is classic! I love it!
LOVE you Julia............ Greeting from Los Angeles CA..............
Wow Julia, you are a very cool and inspiring player!

Great video!

Thank you for your recommendation! // Cheers, Julia
Your playing is as natural as breathing. One question: how do you keep your fingers calluses?
great tutorial, where can i find more of your awesome tutorials. love the bootsie Star bass in the background

Do them exist? and if they do, can you do a lesson about them?

Thanks, top lesson. Now I can try to apply it to some Matt Freeman style ska punk.
Ciao Julia, molte grazie! ❤

Hello, it is a long scale bass! Maybe in the next video ;) // Cheers, Julia
@@ThomannsGuitarsBasses 😄 That would be awesome to see... Vie gehts from Los Angeles. My mother is originally from Manheim!
Bravissima Julia! Grazie! 😊
Grazie Julia, bel video
wow so clear..thanks julia ..more please!
0:20 - "You're instantly asking yourself 'Why the hell should I learn arpeggios?'"
No. I'm asking myself "What's up with Bootsy Collins' bass in the background? Does he know you got it?"
I found arpeggios useful for refining technique, (playing more precise) and are great for warm ups.
Very nice, thank you. You are very inspiring. :-) Wish you a good weekend.
Hullo Julia. I enjoyed the arpeggio lesson, you did it with a bit of fun. Thank you.
Just a thought, is there any chance of explaining legato?
Julia I enjoy your videos but wish you had a PDF to go along with them.
Cool lesson Julia thanks , what bass is that I like ?
Hey, this is a Sandberg California TT :-) // Cheers, Julia
Julia, would have loved you to have played some Ska lines.
It took my stupid brain a while to realise that you meant the 4th finger and not the 4th note in the scale ...

people always ask me where did you learn that!? about everything. Hello!! RUclips! Great video thanks for sharing.
Ace lesson Julia greetings from Wales.
Hallo Julia! Benutzt du live auch ein Mikro zur Abnahme deiner Bassbox? ... tolle Videos, danke!

We need more lessons... But, where is the pine apple?
You make it look so easy
I always wanted to learn arpeggios.
Ooooooh, that's a new kind of bass face, with the half pursed singing lips 🤣😍 Love it.
This video has saved me untold frustration. So, thank you.
Thanks Miss !!!
Ms please do one Bass tutorial for me !!! Curtis Mayfield!!!
I didn't realize how playing bass is so good exercise if you play guitar. With a good workout on the bass, soon I can fly all over the guitar fretboard.
Beautiful.💯
nice dub bassline there (6:40)!
How do you do a diminished or Augmentin broken chord?
Dim 3 m 3rds from the root
Aug 3 M 3rds from the root
I think...
Danke Julia! Weder den Donauwalzer, noch Anaesthesia von Metallicas Cliff Burton kann man ohne Arpeggios spielen. 😉
Is Julia double jointed? The fingers of her fretting hand seem very flexible and long. She would be very good on piano as well as bass.
Thank you!
Nice video😀👍
how to play logg "dancing into the stars"? can you show me please? thanks
Thanks
I like that sandberg bass
Hi its me the Texan that loves you cool tips thanks
Hi Julia, veeeery important question: when will the band start, Mary's band with you, Reyna and so on. Adam as second bassist :-) Ich sage mal, "des wär ur leiwand". And thanks for the videos, very inspiring.
Hi, I hope very soon 😉😁 // Cheers, Julia
Saludos desde Peru
Now i can play some Strauss 😂
What is this beautiful (Warwick ? if i recognize the bridge well) behind you ?
Why did it never occur to me to play the minor 3rd on the same string as the root rather than reaching across the next highest string?!
That is going to make things much easier, thank you.
Awesome, as usual! Now, if my fingers would just flow like that (:>)
thanks for share !!!
well it's lesson, but I'm just happy to see Julia) and lesson just, a bonus )
So 1,3,5 is the formula for both major and minor arpeggios?
Please do Tash Sultana - Notion
That song was actually recorded on a potato strung with flats. Tone is In the hands.
It would be great if you will do a collab with Ben Jud from benjudbass youtube Chanel
Trying to learn slap. My wedding band keeps knocking on the fret board . Am I doing something wrong?
NICE JEANS !!!
I just like the way you say it.
Arpeggios are the life blood of bass
More bass content please 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🙂🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶💞
Fein 🤩
That purple bass behind you looks like a Bootsy Collins bass. cool
It is a Bootsy Collins Bass 😉 // Cheers, Julia
