I've been playing bass for 2 years and THIS video was my starting place, I thank you so much Luke. I remember the day that I watched this video and played Seven Nation Army to my friends on discord...
I was actually booed in a party for playing bass as the "guitar wasn't loud enough" lol. A girl approached me once thinking that I was the guitar player for the cover song of war pigs (Black Sabbath). Once she learnt that I was a bass player, she pretty much said that I was just moving around my fingers fast for nothing. To be fair, she was pretty drunk. Even after all this, I remain a proud bassist. I learnt the bass first then the guitar. And I always chose to play the bass.
I get that quite a lot. I've started doing some small gigs here and there and after playing funk in polyrhythms and jazz, ppl ask if I can "play anything cool". To which I start playing something from rhcp or 7 nation army when I can't be bothered...
Hi Luke! I just picked up my first bass 4 days ago amd thanks to your videos i now can play 3 out of these five songs now thank you so much for these videos! Ive beem practicing for 4 hours each day and i saw immediate results! Thank you so much, you ROCK Luke!!
Great stuff! Just getting started on bass, after playing guitar for years. This is hugely helpful and helps me see both the similarities and differences between the instruments. Thanks for the video.
I've just recently started to learn bass guitar, and the only instrument I've ever played was a recorder in 5th grade, but I was able to understand this, I'm so happy I found this video!
My first riff on bass was the intro on peace sells, as a guitarist it was what made me also pick up bass (that and the lack of any decent bass players in my area)
I'm more or less just starting my musical adventure. About 1 month in, couple dozen hours with bass. Seems easier to me. Still learning the notes to the frets, but this numbering method is teaching me faster as a means to achieve results. Still getting my fingers and hands used to it, also. The guys I'm learning and practicing with are pretty impressed with my results so far. Timing with hand movement and placement is challenging. I'm definitely making positive progress and have a great bunch of people around to help.
I'm at the stage in life where I really appreciate skill. Whether music, sport, medicine, building or whatever. Find something to do and be good at it. It's a wonderful thing. Learn one thing well. Don't dabble. Oh and I'm learning to play bass. Great job Luke.
I just placed an order for a Player Jaguar bass a few days ago. I think this is the video I'll use to get going. I hope that learning bass will help preserve my sanity this winter.
2019 Update! I've taken the most popular bass lines from the comments of this video and made a new lesson with the most requested lines. Check out the new video, '5 MORE Beginner Bass Lines - Guaranteed To Impress' here: ruclips.net/video/WNY-OIj_30U/видео.html
I'm embarrassed to say this but I own a Peavey TL5 in pristine condition ( because I haven't learned to play it) and a Gibson EBO that I was given by my great uncle. I've had them Both for about 30 years. I would learn a bit then get busy with work and put them down for a couple of years and forget what little I had learned. I don't remember anything now at all. What is a good way to start from scratch and remember it? I've lost my books and I don't know the very basic notes. Could you help me get started again Please? P.S. life lesson I'll trade you. don't work to much or your wife will leave you after 28 years. "Balance is the Key to a happy life".
Hey Luke, I noticed it looks like you’re playing an Ibanez, maybe a SR though I can’t tell. I’m having trouble deciding between the Schecter Studio 5 elite and the Ibanez 505. I can get them both used, with the Schecter in mint condition for $400 and the 505 in good condition for $350. I’d love to have anyone’s input. I know the differences in weight and neck profile, I guess I’m just curious if there’s any advantage in sound?
All seriousness your a good teacher but for a beginner your making things way to complicated I'd rather you just call out the fret numbers instead of calling out the notes and fret numbers
Im a beginner and i mostly know the songs listed here All i can say that they are very easy that everyone sings to. They thought i was a very good player
I finally got a good bass Fender Mustang and loving it. Learning how and what to play. I was with your emails before and saved them. I was playing acoustic and electric guitar with a private teacher and friend. He passed away and I am looking forward to working with you
I started playing bass about 3 weeks ago so I'm super new, I love playing stand by me so much, it's so fun I'm addicted, and I can actually play it unlike other songs haha!
I play guitar and friend of mine borrowed me bass because I wanted to try it so hard. Found this video and in an instant i started to rock Thank you Luke for the introduction!
Been watching the videos as I have started to teach myself bass guitar, its making sense, the tabs are how you are looking down on your guitar strings. EADG . I love how they make things simple and step by step.
Me before too but now I have a bass. Now I have low notes too. For very high notes I use violin. So range is like full piano. These are in my homestudio keyboard is also useful for my demos.
Yeah, it sounds closer to the original this way(On the A string). Sometimes I use the D string as well when I the melody is about to change at the end.
Luke, you explain and demonstrate very well. Thank you, this really helps. I usually find it hard to follow because almost everybody else shoots the pickup and not the fret.
You are AMAZING!!! I am a TOTAL beginner on ANY musical instrument. I chose the bass guitar. You are THE best video "broadcast" I have found that has the music on the video as well. THANK YOU! YOU ROCK!!!!
I just picked up a bass a couple of days ago. I had played guitat before, and i ended up improvising 7 nations on accident, so learning the actual thing was cool even tho i like my improvisation
Hey, the cult is genuinely fun The only downside is guitarist But then, you can't play notes as fast as them, their picks are restrictive I still love guitarists none the less
I'm glad I receive emails with tips. And yes, the best tips I also pass on to other people. Luke You're the best. It amazes me that I'm still learning things I thought I knew, but a person alive he's never too old to learn.
even after all these years of playing megadeth on bass i still like to come back to these videos and remind myself that we all started at the same point.
"Super easy to play" and "guaranteed to impress" doesn't quite go together. It can definitely impress, but people who know how to play will quickly see through lack of skill. As soon as someone asks you to play something of your own your skills are put to the test. These bass lines are not bad and it's cool to know some stuff that people recognize, the "guaranteed to impress" part just really doesn't sit well with me
Shreyas Sarangi Yeah, for sure. It's not at all a bad idea to learn these and I hope I didn't come off as arrogant or anything. I do feel like the title is a bit too much clickbait still though
People who play music are easily impressed. I played a simple 4/4 drum beat and before I could do any fills people were telling me I was an amazing drummer
Become A Bassist today I can say that I can play them all but I always do this minor mistake in the Another One Bites the Dust that I hit too many 0's. There's a little gap there and instead making this gap I'm playing an open string over and over again.
I had some issues starting out with open notes. The sounded buzzy. They still feel weird but I've found a light smearing of molybdenum grease (pencil lead if you're in a pinch) where the strings enter the headstock really helped the open notes' buzz with my particular strings and bass.
love the bass. wanted to learn how to play since i as 11 (now 46) after my cousin gave me a cassette of Iron Maidens Powerslave. i saw the vid of Steve Harris. needless to say, i ran cowering in fear, never to even try to play.
I was trying to learn that funky bass line from the Leon Haywood song "I Wanna Do Something Freaky To You" which many of you know today as "Nothin' But A G Thang" by Dre and Snoop. It requires more technique than I posses. This was much more suited to my ability, Thanks mate. editors note: I was able to put the bassline together in under 10 minutes. Ideal starting bassline for beginners like me.

This is AWESOME @Kaan Septicher! Thanks so much for letting me know - I love hearing stories like yours. They put a massive smile on my face.

Under Pressure by Queen should be on this list. It's probably the easiest bass riff ever!
D D D DDD A, D D D DDD A....
Maybe the intro but as it progresses it can get tricky for newer players actually
And another bites the dust
Oof never mind it’s in here
Do you mean Under Pressure by David Bowie and Queen
Great stuff! Just getting started on bass, after playing guitar for years. This is hugely helpful and helps me see both the similarities and differences between the instruments. Thanks for the video.
I was asked to put the guitar down and play bass if I wanted to stay in the band. I'm learning to really like it.
I've just recently started to learn bass guitar, and the only instrument I've ever played was a recorder in 5th grade, but I was able to understand this, I'm so happy I found this video!
You can try "Cake by the ocean" it's so easy but it impress people effectively

Get a cheap one on Craig’s list, you’ll be in business in no time!

I had an absolutely fabulous time with this lesson. It was great fun. A good choice of basslines for a novice player to get stuck into...
I just placed an order for a Player Jaguar bass a few days ago. I think this is the video I'll use to get going. I hope that learning bass will help preserve my sanity this winter.
Awesome bass to start on. Good choice
"Play that funky music white boy". Yeah, that's #1.
Yeah , I like it too :)
I taught myself " little green bag" when I was 11, my mum used to love it.
Nice one 👍
This is fun, picking up the bass again, I'm hooked!
That's great Remco! Good to hear you're having a good time!
I’m starting bass as of last week and this has been so helpful! Thank you so much! Just need to figure out easier ways of hand placement I think.
Great to have you in the bass world @Roscoe Martin - you got this!
I’m a guitar player but I always like to expand myself so learning base doesn’t sound too bad. It’s looks fun actually.
I am just starting out, and even these are a challenge. Gonna keep practicing, but I'll get em eventually

I started playing bass about 3 weeks ago so I'm super new, I love playing stand by me so much, it's so fun I'm addicted, and I can actually play it unlike other songs haha!
When learning a new song I prefer to avoid using open strings where possible as it makes it easier to transpose later on the fly
Haven’t even bought my bass yet but I’m looking forward to it
I play guitar and friend of mine borrowed me bass because I wanted to try it so hard. Found this video and in an instant i started to rock Thank you Luke for the introduction!
I just can't get my eyes off that bass it looks so cool😍🔥
for whom the bell tolls intro!!! thats a great bassline
Wouldn’t say it’s for beginners though
I like how when this video shows up in an end of video suggestion, it says 'beginner ass lines'.
Bought a bass today after having not played much for the past 30 years - beginner again, but awesome
This video has been helping me to get to know more about the guitar tricks
just started playing and your videos have been so helpful! thanks a bunch :)
That was fun !
Good memories , man !
I just started teaching a friend to play bass, and these are perfect for him !
Thanks for this.
My hand literally cant reach across as many frets as yours can so I have a harder time playing these, but so far managed to learn 2 of the songs :V
I'm about to start learning bass, self teaching with the help of RUclips, and Seven Nation Army is one of the first bass lines I wanna learn to play

I play it on E with more tone as distortion as non guitar players THINK it is distortion :p..
Gavaskar B. Exactly!
Gavaskar B. You must be playing it in the wrong key or playing it starting on the 12 fret which just doesn't that that great
Luke, you explain and demonstrate very well. Thank you, this really helps. I usually find it hard to follow because almost everybody else shoots the pickup and not the fret.

Haha! Thanks Michael. I hope the videos help.
even after all these years of playing megadeth on bass i still like to come back to these videos and remind myself that we all started at the same point.
Great tutorial. To add to the immersion, I'd suggest adding a "sing-a-long" style highlight to each note as it's played?
"Super easy to play" and "guaranteed to impress" doesn't quite go together. It can definitely impress, but people who know how to play will quickly see through lack of skill. As soon as someone asks you to play something of your own your skills are put to the test.
These bass lines are not bad and it's cool to know some stuff that people recognize, the "guaranteed to impress" part just really doesn't sit well with me
The casual listener who doesn't play any instruments will probably be at least a little impressed with a popular song
Shreyas Sarangi Yeah, for sure. It's not at all a bad idea to learn these and I hope I didn't come off as arrogant or anything. I do feel like the title is a bit too much clickbait still though
Right.
People who play music are easily impressed. I played a simple 4/4 drum beat and before I could do any fills people were telling me I was an amazing drummer

All your bass are belong to us!
For some reason I really hate playing open notes on the bass.
Me too and im not new to it at all
They're slightly more difficult to properly mute. Combining open notes with fret notes on the same string eliminates this problem though.
@@pleep1887 agreed
Me Too 😉
I had some issues starting out with open notes. The sounded buzzy. They still feel weird but I've found a light smearing of molybdenum grease (pencil lead if you're in a pinch) where the strings enter the headstock really helped the open notes' buzz with my particular strings and bass.
