    Was this a hard or complicated song? Not in the slightest. Am I still super jazzed that I actually managed to play something for the first time on the bass I just got today? OH hell yes.

    I got my bass yesterday (never played anything before), I am much further along playing this song then I would've expected. So glad I found this. Thank you! Triple.

    great tutorial, but I'd recommend that when you're on the A string, that you rest your thumb on the E string instead of the pickup. This will stop the E from developing a sympathetic resonance. Move your thumb up to the pickup only when you want to play the E string. If you watch Andy's bassist during the 2nd half of the video, you'll see that this is the technique that he uses.

      I‘m actually really trying to remember this while playing, but I gotta admit that it feels kind of weird with longer fingers. I know it’s just a matter of getting used to it, but it feels more comfortable if I have bit more room between my fingers.
      But you’re absolutely right, the thumb is supposed to rest on the string above the one you’re playing.

    This song is super easy to learn. I got my first bass today and wanted to play something, so i decided to learn seven nation army. Well, after 30 minutes i was (sorry if this sounds arrogant) super impressed of my progress. Big suggestion to beginners, this is perfect if you are starting with this awesome instrument

    I picked up guitar after almost 40 years and was enjoying. Then one day hubby and I were putting a song together and wanted a bass line. I picked one up and played it, and was immediately hooked! I bought my own the next week. This is a great fun way to learn to play actual songs. I enjoy learning theory, but it’s awesome to be able to play cool stuff. Thank you Andy 👏🏻🙏🏻👏🏻🙏🏻👏🏻

    After playing drums for more then 10 years in several bands (just for fun and with some gigs) i stopped when the Corona hit the world. But after 3 years doing nothing with music I needed to do something because the urge was to big 🙂 But this time less noisy. I bought a bass guitar, a small amplifier and some accessories. Knowing nothing about tones, scales and all the other essential stuff I expected to have a looooooooooong road ahead of me before I would be able to play a part of any tune. But what an inspiring guy are you (and your band ofcourse) Today i managed to play the whole of the Seven nation army song with the band, on 75% speed. Still making me so proud to make this kind of progress in just a few days.
    Thanks for taking me on the right track to a new carreer as (amatuer) bass player!!🙏

Such clear communication, explanation of terms and bass playing, great counting of the rhythm in context, and really encouraging words for the student! I love the split screen showing the bass work close up as your band plays!! Thanks for all this stuff!

    My idee: When u play the E string u should rest youre
    thumb on the pickup ; when u play the A string u should rest youre
    thumb on the E string ; when u play the D string u should rest youre
    thumb on the A string and the last one , play the G string rest youre
    thumb on the D string.
    NOT FOR ANDY- is a professional and good teacher for guitars .And yes is illegal to use pick on a bass guitar( Davie 504 say that :) )
