    Subbed. I have been learning songs on the guitar for close to 30 years and pretty much ignored all theory. I can play hundreds of songs but do not feel like I can play the guitar. Not the best strategy, I know. I picked up the Bass about 7-8 months ago and LOVE it. I kick myself for having not done it earlier. I want to master this instrument as best I can throughout the rest of my life and express myself musically instead of regurgitating others art. Today I start with finally learning the basics of theory. Thank you for putting this out there, cheers bud.

    I've been playing bass for a few years. I had never even felt like I earned the right to call myself a bassist. So glad I found your channel. The way you teach is such a gift. I feel like I'm finally on my way to actually playing the bass rather than the bass play me.

    I've been stuck in a major rut for years, I didn't understand circle of fifths,.playing by numbers or why scales worked the way they do. I always had to rely on playing by ear and was majorly hindered. Your simple breakdown in this video cleared all that up and I had a major break through in one night . After years I was finally able to improvise without the same old pentatonic scale and stay in key and know where to go on the neck with confidence and increased my scaling speed dramatically. Thank you so much!!!!

    Thanks for this! I've only been focusing on learning songs but have no idea of the notes behind it. I can recognize the patterns of the songs but have no idea how they work. I feel like this is the first step to me understanding what I'm playing. Thanks!

    Thanks a lot man! This is just what I need.. i've played amd enjoyed bass in bands and had very good reactions about my play.. but because i didn't knew the theory, it took a lot of time to practice songs at home, before going to.band rehearsals.. after a couple of years I stopped playing in the band.. and occasionly I play at home.. now my Kids are teenagers and I have more time, so I want to make een unforgettable comeback to the music scene..and also play songs with them (singer and drums)..
    But like.everyone supposed to, with learni g the Theory

    I just don’t understand how this helps at all.
    Say I’m learning to play a song, say afterlife by A7X. How is knowing the 4th note in a certain scale gonna benefit me?
    Just pull up a tab, learn the song and go. Easy peasy. I want to know my bass inside and out but I feel like music theory is just treading water in a pool of useless knowledge.

    • @taytayr
      @taytayr Месяц назад

      Maybe it’s more of a memorization thing 🤔? A lot of theory is just remembering stuff and learning how one thing can mean something else. I don’t know when something that specific as playing the 4th note in C major will pop up but I know that learning stuff like intervals is important. Intervals, scales, chords are a lot but they eventually help u learn to move across the board and improvise
