Ive been watching Marks lessons for about a month now. My playing and understanding has improved so much its unreal. Best teacher online by a million miles ❤
I think this is a FANTASTIC Tutorial M . It helps me explain all the "Vagueries" that I admit i give out calling "Ghost notes and groove" which isnt good enough. you have certainly improved my teaching technique!! good man!! hope this dosent involve an invoice. I have sent lots of guys to seek you out. Thanks man!
Nice tutotial, thanks Mark. And somehow timed perfectly, I've been looking for something to up my skills. I can kind of play the first bar, badly, so there's plenty to practice just in this little riff. Your fundamentals course got me started on the bass, when I feel I've done enough practice to justify another full course (bass is a middle-aged hobby I've picked up, so practice time is a struggle) I'll definitely look at your groove trainers.
Is there anywhere where we can hear you playing solo or in a band? I know you play a bit in the Talking Bass videos, but is there any other footage of you jamming or anything?
@@RobertWadlow292 As for band stuff, I've done literally thousands of gigs over the last 30 years but it's only recently that everyone video records everything. Most of my career has been as a journeyman in theatre shows, cruise gigs, sideman work. Whatever pays the bills. I sometimes stumble upon videos of me playing online but I very rarely video the stuff myself. It's bad etiquette to start recording an act while backing them. To be honest I've had little time for gigging since Talkingbass became a 24/7 job. My gigging chops are rusty to say the least!
Ah yes, counting! It's so difficult to tap my foot, count the sixteenth notes (one-e-and-a-two-e...) AND THEN clap the notes to be played! Practice is needed I guess. Do you have a course of graded lessons? Great explanation 🙂
Hi Mark, how would you say the difficulty of groove trainer 1 and 2 compare to the difficulties of the “25 bass groove challenge” on your site? In other words, does the difficulty of groove trainer 2 start around the 8th groove, 11th groove, etc… from the list of 25?
Excelent lesson, excelent teacher. You great, Mark and thanx a lot!

Great lesson Mark. Really challenging but the groove is awesome.
Thanks!!!.Great lesson to lear groove and teach my ring finger to play bass.
Another superbly clear explanation Mark. Syncopated lines are the bane of my life!! P.S. Good to see one of your Fenders doing something!
Man, Mark…thank for what you do. I love these little groove lessons.
A good groove nicely broken down. Thanks.
Uh niiiiice. Top teacher 🎸❤️
Now that’s a bass lesson

I just wanted to hear you playing solo in particular. I'm sure it will blow my mind. Ok, maybe that's enough flattery from me for now, lol
There’s a ton of me solo playing here on the channel. This is one in particular: ruclips.net/video/RRpRUuMDikQ/видео.html
@@talkingbasslessons Sounds really good. Thanks

Thanks Marc
Thanks Marc 🎸🎶🎵
Working through the Groove Trainer course which is great! As is that bass - 70's?
Thanks a lot. Glad you like the course. The bass is a 1967 Fender Jazz

Fortunately for me, I can do this. Now I want finger funk 16th ghosted note grooves. Where is that course

Where did the solfegitto tutorial go:(
Oooh wee
Would it be easier to keep timing If one don't change counting from sixteenth to eitghts?
💙👊😎
Is that a new jazz bass? 🤔
Christmas present!!
I think he showed it off during a live hangout one Saturday a few months ago. Boy, does it sound good!
Had it a few years. It’s a ‘67 jazz.
This high contrast white background totally hurts the eye, please do something about it !
Cheers
