Do you have a link to the bass solo you reference at 2:25?

[josephinecaruana]

Pleasure watching you you're so clear

[patrickmcintosh]

The bass solo at the start of this lesson is gold dust. It has everything for a beginner. Phrasing, timing, movement across and along the neck, articulations, pentatonics, blues scale, dynamics. Thanks a million!!

[eugenechek]

Very cool, as always. Greetings from Moscow.

[Duincyberkonijn]

what kind of strings do you have on your bass ? It sounds great.

[ricoaalst]

Hi Dan, I came across your channel and like what you are putting out. I play guitar for over thirty years, have ventured into bass a bit and want to learn more about the technique and roll of this beautiful instrument. Have you done any videos that cater for guitarists-turned-bass players? Anyway, thanks for your lessons and keep going bro, great stuff!

[threshold]

Great lesson. So enjoy your videos. Only recently found your page. Great recordings too. What mic and camera do you use and how connected please as having trouble setting up my logitec

[lucapappalardo]

Thanks so much Dan! This is THE lesson 👍💪

[richardcornuelle]

Dan, a huge issue for apprentice bassists is how to construct phrases. Please make a video specifically about note sequences that turn into great phrases.You play something really cool then say I wasn't thinking, I was just playing. Well, we wanna know what you were playing and how to do it!

[everready]

I know this is an older video but, are those flat wound strings?

[Abbynorml]

There's a particular rhythm I can't seem to grasp. The mid to early 60s of McCartney and beach boys ( think Sgt peppers and pet sounds). Its off but on? I want to say staccato, but idk, really, what that is. Definitely not sustain oriented. I called it bouncy, no one else seems know what I mean. (Btw, I've gotten a lot from ur videos). Thanks!
